Building Disaster Recovery Serviceguard Solutions Using Continentalclusters for Linux B.01.00.00

7 Troubleshooting Continentalclusters
Reviewing Messages and Log Files
Continentalclusters logs messages into the standard output. For example, Continentalclusters
commands, such as cmqueryconcl, cmcheckconcl, cmapplyconcl, and cmrecovercl
output.
Multiple log files are also used to log various operations. All log messages are stored in the
/var/adm/cmconcl/logs directory with appropriate names. The cmviewconcl command
logs messages in the /var/adm/cmconcl/logs/cmviewconcl.log file.
General information about Serviceguard operation is available in the /var/log/messages file.
Reviewing Messages and Log Files of Monitoring Daemon
The monitoring daemon, by default, logs messages into the
/var/adm/cmconcl/logs/cmclsentryd.log file.
Review the monitor package log file at the location specified by script_log_file parameter.
Reviewing Messages and Log Files of Packages in Recovery Groups
Information about the primary or recovery packages might be found in their respective package
log files specified in the script_log_file file. More information about package start up is
available in the logs of split brain component of Continentalclusters. This log file is available at
/var/adm/cmconcl/logs/checkpkg.log.
Reviewing Logs of Notification Component
All notification messages associated with cluster events are reported in /var/adm/cmconcl/
logs/cmclsentryd.log on the cluster where monitoring is taken place. In addition, if you have
defined a TEXTLOG destination, notification messages are sent to the specified files. The
Continentalclusters SNMP agent ccsnmpagentd logs messages to the /var/adm/cmconcl/
logs/ccagent.log.
