Silly question, I know…

but is this ok to run while process engines are running?

I just want to double check.

Thanks,

Julie

very interesting…I will have to keep an eye on that.

I do have threads that continuously send out ‘harmless’ errors that do fill up the logs quickly.

Is there a command to cycle the logs without downing the process? I seem to remember trying something like that a couple of years ago

Thank you so much for your reply Traci,

In this situation, though…it is an interface with in house application… and I was stopping/starting the interface all over the place…so I don’t know if a timeout would have been an issue in this case…but I could imagine how stops and starts piled up on top of eachother might cause such a situation….however I definatly will apply your advice to other problems of mine that I have been encountering with routers and VPNs, etc etc.

But I am still wondering very much about what could consume all of that CPU time…so if anyone has any thoughts out there….

Thanks!

thanks for your replies,

but acually I am not checking the msi …. just a batch file to pstop, pause, pstart. (on windows)

I imagine that I probably will have to add a different alert that will look into the msi settings…

I see that msi setting PLASTREAD is equall to 0 when it states ‘never’…so I guess something around that might work.

[Julie Kimmel]

No,

I thought that I would try to have it check it every 60 minutes…but maybe that would happen at start up, too.

My problem is that I have an incoming connection…that for some unfindable reason, they lose connection to us. Our Cloverleaf perspective says ‘up’ , and it seems to remedy matters if I bounce that connection.

I have an alert that bounces if it has not read in over an hour, but the problem is if it bounces, and there is nothing yet to read, and then if it goes down again…it will never bounce again because lastread says ‘Never’.

I am basically having to baby sit this connection in case that occurs.

Hello,

What do you do when last receive is ‘Never’? it seems to not count that as time, and I can not figure out how to put lastr =  ‘Never’

Is the answer that you have to put a periodic keep alive-dummy message through?

Thanks,

Julie

I have 3 .bat files that I use to start processes upon a restart of Windows:

StartUp.bat

---

call settheroot

call setthesite mysite1

hcienginerun -p myprocess1

hcienginerun -p myprocess2

call setthesite mysite2

hcienginerun -p myprocess2

… etc …

(or you can find a way to loop through…but to get you up quickly…hard code them in)

settheroot.bat

---

setroot

setthesite.bat

---

setsite %1

Then I set up StartUp.bat as a scheduled job in Windows, schuduled to run upon startup.

As for scheduling a restart of processes, you could write similar batch scripts using hcienginestop to stop the processes and the hcienginerun to start them back up. It is best to stop the inbound threads before stopping processes….I believe the command is:

hcicmd -p -c “ pstop”

So…again…for a quick method…you could write batch files with hard coded process and thread names. I don’t know if it is the most efficient way, and I am sure that people have much more elegant methods out there…but it works.

Hello,

THank you for your reply.

Yes, I do understand that the service and processes where running when the network was down, and that they should have reconnected after it was back up. That is why I am confused that I got this error, I am trying to figure out how I got that error.

I also, now, know about the lmclear…but that was after the rush of the drama to repair the system as quick as we knew how.

any other words of wisdom?

THanks,

Julie

[Julie Kimmel]

Well,

Glory be… there it was!

thanks!

Thanks for the reply, Richard.

I found the little zombie PID, and I killed it.

Thank you!

Hello again!

In looking at the netcfg* commands…I am seeing a lot of ‘get’ commands…but no update or put, or write commands.

Does anyone know if there exist any commands to update the netconfig?

Thanks,

Julie

[Julie Kimmel]

Thank you all for all of your help!

Just to clear up my situation, I am actually approaching our DR from two different directions. I have an offsite DR engine in case our production Cloverleaf faces disaster, and then I am also working with our production Cloverleaf to redirect messages to application DRs, if those applications fail…which I guess that is actually more of a ‘fail over’.

So, if anyone else out there in cloverworld has any more good tips and tricks on that topic, I am interested.

Thanks,

Julie

[Julie Kimmel]

Super,

Thank you very much!

[Julie Kimmel]

lovely…just what I was looking for…Thank you!

Hello,

I am new in creating tcl/hcitcl scripts, and I was wondering,

where do commands such as

     netcfgGetProcConns

come from?

They seem to work, but I can not find where they come from.

I looked in the hcitcl help and other documentation…but did not find any references to them.

Thanks,

Julie K.
