Seviceguard package log growing

[candyman_1]

Hi All

I found the package log file is growing every second and i dont understand that log at all.

here is the output:

root@prod:/etc/cmcluster/advant-# tail -f mdsipkg1.sh.log
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 10
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 5
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 5
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 2
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 8
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 2
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 10
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 6
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 7
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 14
hdb_dispatch_all_buffered_commodities: # of msg waiting = 4

------------------------------------------

Thanks

Candyman.

Shalom,

Well the package itself, which someone created is writing the log entries.

Two suggestions.

Turn of the logging in the package control script.

Trim the log regularly with cron and ignore it.

I'd go for the second one if disk space is a problem and then look at the package control script and try and figure out why its logging. Or post it here and someone will look at it.

Hi Steven

Do you think that would be a permanent solution for a production systems? I would appriciate if someone gives me a fix on dat. cuz everything on the system was just running good.

Thanks

Yes Candyman,

If you post the package control script before I have to go food shopping (it is late in the day here), I will look at it and suggest changes.

You may get asked for more information or someone else might look at the script and suggest to you what to do.

:-)

Hello Steven,

Here is the package script...

Thanks

your control script is callling other scripts tpo start various applications, as below. You need to investigate which of these is causing this logging, and rectify it:

# ADD customer defined run commands.

echo "Start MQSeries ADVANTEX"
su - mqm -c "strmqm ADVANTEX"

echo "Start Oracle PROD"
su - oracle -c "/home/oracle/.start_up"
sleep 20

echo "Start Advantex PROD"
su - pglrt -c "cd /pglr53/ucad/bin; ./start_ucad"
