Package enable/disable log!!

[Sprint Unix Team]

Hi,

I see one of the packages disabled on one of our servers. Is there a way or a log file to find out when this package was disabled...

[Miguel Rodriguez_3]

I think that if nothing else happened to the node where the package is running (reboot, hangup, power fail, etc.), the only way to change the status of the package is to do it manually. By the way, what is the value of the PKG_SWITCHING_ENABLED parameter of the Package configuration file?

Hi:

You might look at /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log for any clues.

Have you looked at the log file for the package script? There should be a *.log file in the /etc/cmcluster/pkg_name/ directory. This might also help.

There are many different scenarios that a package can get disabled. The most common one is that the package was started manually with "cmrunpkg". In this case you need to enable it manually with "cmmodpkg -e" afterwards.

A table about the package manager behaviour is in the newest SG manual "Managing MC/ServiceGuard", December 2000 on pages 75-76. You can find it on http://docs.hp.com .
