Product Documentation


Abstract

Here is a third-party software application that conflicts with the Guardium application.

Content

The following identifies third-party applications that interfere with the installation or running of Guardium and how to work around these conflicts.

Tivoli Monitoring

(2) Tivoli ITM (Tivoli Monitoring) - Bug 34307 - The itmcd command invokes lscfg which issues over a thousand shared memory calls. Specify the full path to lscfg in the parameter 'blocklist_shmem_ops_by_proc' in guard_tap.ini should help by marking that particular process as uninteresting. This will prevent KTAP from querying S-TAP about any shmem connections originating from lscfg.

(a) From root on the database server, type:

which lscfg (output is usually /usr/sbin/lscfg)

(b) In the guard_tap.ini, set:

blocklist_shmem_ops_by_proc=/usr/sbin/lscfg

(c) Restart S-TAP.

d) If the above procedure doesn't help, collect guard_diag while the issue is reproduced and provide it to Guardium support.
