All the required rpc processes are running ?

masood bt — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 10:15:14 GMT

have this:
hhln-b00-cie203:/ # ps -ef | grep -i rpc
root 1034 1 0 13:37:21 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/rpcbind
root 1555 1 0 13:37:21 ? 0:00 /opt/dce/sbin/rpcd
root 6875 5866 0 10:55:25 pts/0 0:00 grep -i rpc
hhln-b00-cie203:/ #

I was trying to install a patch but it fails during analysis phase and throws up some network related errors. When I tried to see rpc I find only a couple of rpc processes running. How should I start others like rpc/lockd, rpc.statd etc

Thanks

Thanks..here it is..

hhln-b00-cie203:/var/adm/sw/security # /usr/sbin/rpc.statd
hhln-b00-cie203:/var/adm/sw/security # /usr/sbin/rpc.lockd
hhln-b00-cie203:/var/adm/sw/security # ps -ef | grep -i rpc
root 1034 1 0 13:37:21 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/rpcbind
root 1555 1 0 13:37:21 ? 0:00 /opt/dce/sbin/rpcd
root 8734 1 0 11:21:58 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.lockd
root 8732 1 0 11:21:48 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.statd
hhln-b00-cie203:/var/adm/sw/security #

Now any more processes needed to be present here in the list?

Here's what I have:

# ps -ef |grep rpc |grep -v grep
root 949 1 0 Nov 25 ? 0:15 /usr/sbin/rpcbind
root 1569 1 0 Nov 25 ? 3:12 /opt/dce/sbin/rpcd
root 2008 1 0 Nov 25 ? 0:11 /usr/sbin/rpc.mountd
root 1063 1 0 Nov 25 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.statd
root 1069 1 0 Nov 25 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.lockd
daemon 2624 1124 0 Nov 25 ? 0:00 rpc.cmsd
root 2610 1124 0 Nov 25 ? 0:00 /usr/dt/bin/rpc.ttdbserver

The last one, I think, is the ToolTalk database, which I can't imagine you need, so that leaves rpc.cmsd which seems to be CDE related. You might want to try it:

/usr/dt/bin/rpc.cmsd &

Oh - I missed mountd!

yeah..I started mountd.. here on another note here is my actual prob:

I tried to install the LDS patch (oracle Application patch)
Using this command
swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true -s hhln-mgt-ign101:/var/spool/sw/patch_OraAppServ/depot \* @ hhln-b00-lds201

After an hour of analysis, I have got the below error messages.

hhln-b00-lds201:/ # swjob -a log hhln-b00-lds201-0052 @ hhln-b00-lds201:/

Hi Masood,

Copy the depot to your local system and try installation.

The actual cause of the problem seems to be a loss of network communication. Looks like you were doing the install from remote Server.

Thanks,
Johnson
