OMNIbus Uni-directional Gateway mustgather instructions

Question & Answer


Question

If you are having a problem with your Uni-directional Gateway and are unsure what information to include in your Case, follow these instructions.

Answer

1) Set your Uni-directional Gateway in Debug mode


If the Uni-directional Gateway is not starting or dies shortly after startup, use this command:

$OMNIHOME/bin/nco_g_objserv_uni -name NCO_GATE --maxlogfilesize -1 --messagelevel debug &

If the Uni-directional Gateway is running, set the server in debug mode through the NCO_SQL interface:

$OMNIHOME/bin/nco_sql -server NCO_GATE
SET PROPERTY 'MaxLogFileSize' TO -1;
SET PROPERTY 'MessageLevel' TO 'debug';
GO


2) Re-create the error, then set the Uni-directional Gateway back to default:

$OMNIHOME/bin/nco_sql -server NCO_GATE
SET PROPERTY 'MaxLogFileSize' TO 1024;
SET PROPERTY 'MessageLevel' TO 'warn';
GO
