Saving and Restarting

[Deanna Norman]

Hi,

Does anybody know if I need to restart the Network Monitor on my process if I make changes to a table translation after I save it for it to take affect?

Thanks

Network Monitor is a GUI tool.  Restarting the GUI would have no effect on running engines.

You would need to either restart the engine processes that use the table, or use the “purge caches” button on the processes in question in order for the changes to be recognized.

And if you are running 5.5Rev1, the purge cache button doesn’t work.  You need to enter the purge command from the command line

hcicmd -p -c ‘. purgex’

Personally, anytime I change anything in a process I always cycle the process.

That way I’m always sure to pick up the change and don’t have to remember anything else or worry if it really worked this time.

Yes cycling the entire process is overkill sometimes but I can always depend on it doing what I want and I like that.

Most of our translation is in TCL, in the inbound or outbound TPS. We use a ‘change script’ to bounce the thread and check all is well.  We’ve used this successfully since 3.3.0!

Changing socket ports works well, but changing thread protocol generally requires a process bounce.
