Hi, We had a SUN sending events to my MCC Ultrix T1.3.1 equipped DECstation 5000/240 with the event collector am. Then, I rebooted my ultrix workstation and with DECNET transport we got a timeout doing mcc_evc_send and with UDPIP a "cannot access" type of error message. We figured out it was because the sinks were not started we restarted the sinks and it worked. My concern is : It will arrive on operational sites 1- cannot we do like we did for alarm rules (auto enable...) 2- A workaround is to add something in rc.local maybe to restart automatically the sinks after a reboot. WHERE (in what file) and WHAT must be added to automatically restart the sink ? Thanks in advance Catherine

We had trouble starting the collection sink automatically in rc.local we only tried a simple script though called direct from rc.local and this seemed to fail, it may have been because other startup jobs were still running from rc.local. You could try doing it at the end or with a pause to let other things start, or by submitting a job to cron to start say 15 minutes after boot. DMcC. |
