944.0. "Archive job never terminates" by 49575::NEUWEILER (System Support Geneva) Mon Aug 28 1995 10:36

My customer uses a nightly batch to archive the logfiles of all the systems
monitored by PCM. The PCM version is V1.6 ECO1 and the operating system is
OpenVMS ALPHA V6.2.
The batch job of last night just never terminated. It is waiting in LEF state.
As long as the archiving is ongoing a reconfiguration is not possible.
So there is a manual intervention required to manually stop the batch job.
What could be the problem??


Below an extract of an SDA session, the logfile and the batch command file.

944.1URGENT : Same problem54831::GEORGESWith OpenVMS, NO problem ONLY solutionsWed Aug 30 1995 03:4327
    Hi,

    same problem for me.

    a big customer of mine (bank) has the same problem.
    His management platform (AXP running VMS), PCN 1.6-110 is supervising more
    than 50 nodes.  Yesterday he called me because the Console Manager was
    blocked due to the MONTHLY archiving he started during the night.

    He looked on the system, but no process was active.

    I suggested him a hard way to get out of this problem :

	    Shutdown and Restart of the Console Manager (application not
	    the system !) 

    I'm sure, I hope, there is another way to solve this (patch, ...)

    You speek about BYTLM increasing for each new archived node.  Is there
    an algorithm to calculate the appropriate value of BYTLM !


    Thanks, for answering quickly, we have a lot of customers who will
    certainly have this kind of problems.

944.2more news to .049575::NEUWEILERSystem Support GenevaWed Aug 30 1995 04:545
    Some more news to .0
    The customer did a shutdown of the console manager to recover from this
    situation. This released the hang for the archiving process, it
    continued to archive for about 30 seconds before it was stopped by
    the shutdown.
944.3PCM startup restarts the archiving ...(that's life !)54831::GEORGESWith OpenVMS, NO problem ONLY solutionsWed Aug 30 1995 06:3614
    Hi,


    re .2:


    My customer called me this  morning.  The shutdown was OK, but when
    restarted, the ARCHIVING has automatically been restarted,...

    I would like to know if there i a hidden command to tell PCM that
    archiving is finished or that it doesn't need to be rescheduled ?

    Dominique, 
    
        There is not any hidden command to tell PCM about archiving.
    Make sure that the archiving directory is valid. You do this using the 
    PCM editor (characteristics).

944.5Archiving never stops.54831::MICHIELSOpenVMS: Bulletproof ComputingTue Sep 05 1995 09:4729
Our own PCM system (V1.6-ECO1) is currently in a situation where archiving is
running, but never stops.

I stopped PCM, and restarted it, but if I try immediate after it a 
reconfigure, it says: (debug is on)

$ console reconf
CMShm: Returning HEADER record
CMShm: Mapped to section, reference count = 1
CMShm: Get Reconfigure flag
CMShm: Returning HEADER record
CMShm: Get Archive flag
CMShm: Returning HEADER record
CMShm: Reference count == 0, deleting shared memory from process space
Archive in progress, Reconfigure not performed.

This remains like this forever.

I assume there must be somewhere an archive flag in the config file that is 
never reset.
Where do we find this flag and isn't there a dirty trick to reset it?
Reboot fixed it on our system, but according to my collegue this did not fix 
the problem at a customer site. Don't know how we have to solve of this
situation.

Thanks in advance for all support.

    Johan,
    
       What happens if you do not do a reconfigure? You don't need to
    perform a reconfigure after you start PCM as it reads the database upon
    startup.

    Dave,
    
    The problem becomes visible after you made a change to the config
    file. Then you want to do a reconfigure, and that fails. I tried to
    reconfigure at regular time intervals during half a day, but the
    reconfigure was always refused.
    Stopping/Starting consolemanager was not good enough. The system needed
    a reboot. Could it be that PCM stores that archive flag in something like
    a permanent global section?
    
    Regards,

    Johan,
    
       Yes, PCM does use global sections, but I'm surprised that shutting
    down PCM doesn't release it. When you shut down PCM are there any
    lingering PCM processes? Also, after you shutdown PCM, try deleting
    the files in console$tmp: and see if that doesn't help.

    Dave,
    
    No, I did all that. I killed all PCM processes, even multi-line
    windows that were still displayed on a number of X-displays.
    I also deleted all tmp files to start from a clean situation.
    
    Regards,

    You *must* also get *all* processes that are running CONNECT/MONITOR/C3 to 
    exit the interface. Until this is done the statistics global section
    will remain mapped and the flag will remain set. This flag is not
    present in the database so a reboot clears it for the present time. If
    archiving is kicking in automatically it may be beucase you have
    reached the disk full threshold in one of the logging areas as defined
    in the config file so every time you restart te software it starts an
    archive.

    Dan,
    
    
    I certainly did not reach the disk full threshold, but I'm not sure
    about any other connect/monitor/c3 processes running on the X-sessions
    of one of my colleagues.
    
    Next time I have this problem, I'll shoot everything of PCM and I'll
    check.
    
    Thanks for the info.

944.12installed images removed ?41775::COUGHLANThu Sep 07 1995 06:2013
I'm not sure if this is relevant but...

When you issue a console shutdown, the Console images do not get
deinstalled. To deinstall the images, you must run the startup procedure
and pass deinstall as a parameter.

I have had similar problems with archiving whereby if a node is
unreachable during archive, the archive procedure will just sit there
waiting for that node to return (console archive all). As I setup the
procedure to run over a weekend, on one occasion, the archive was
sitting there waiting for over 48 hours.

Dave.

    The global section in question is not a global program section created
    at link time rather it is created at runtime via a system service so
    it's not necessary to deinstall the images.

    Well, this morning PCM was again in the situation: 
    
    "Archive in progress, Reconfigure not performed."
    
    I stopped PCM, killed all remaining PCM action routines (such as
    multi-line window displays), and I killed all processes of my colleagues 
    to make sure nobody was doing something with PCM.
    
    Then I restarted PCM, and waited some time.
    
    Trying $CONSOLE RECONF gave me always the above message.
    The log files in CONSOLE$TMP did not gave any information concerning 
    on-going archiving.
    
    In console$archive I find files created on the 15th; today we are
    the 19th.
    
    Then the hard way: a reboot of the system. No more problems. The
    reconfigure works fine now.
    
    
    Regards,
    
    Johan
