Storage Essentials 5.00.01 Installation Guide 183
Modifying the Boot Time RC Start Script (Optional)
When you install the CIM Extension, its start scrip is put in the /etc/rc3.d directory with the file
name S99appqcime. The CIM Extension uses this script to start at boot time. You can modify this
script if you want to add parameters. Any parameter you can add when you manually start the CIM
Extension, such as -port, can be added to the start script.
To modify the file:
1. Open S99appqcime in a text editor.
2. Find the following line of code:
${APPIQ_HOME}/tools/start
3. Add the parameter after /start. For example, assume you want to change the port for the CIM
Extension to port 1234. You would add -port 1234 after /start, as shown in the following
example:
${APPIQ_HOME}/tools/start -port 1234
4. Save the file.
The changes take effect the next time the script executed when the host reboots.
Stopping the CIM Extension
To stop the CIM Extension, enter the following at the command prompt in the
/opt/APPQcime/tools directory, where /opt is the directory into which you installed the CIM
Extension:
# ./stop
Keep in mind the following:
• You must have root privileges to stop the CIM Extension.
• When you stop the CIM Extension, the management server is unable to gather information
about this host.
Rolling Over the Logs
The logging information for the CIM Extension is contained primarily in the cxws.log file. The
cxws.log files roll over once the files become more than 30 MB. The information in cxws.log is
moved to cxws.log.1. If cxws.log.1, already exists, cxws.log.2 is created. The numbering for the
files continues sequentially, for example, cxws.log.3, cxws.log.4, etc.
The cxws.out file contains some logging information, such as the CIM Extension starting, which is
recorded in case something unexpected happens with the Java Virtual Machine. The cxws.out file is
rewritten each time the CIM Extension restarts.
Removing the CIM Extension from Solaris
To remove the CIM Extension for Solaris as root:
1. Login as root.
2. Stop the CIM Extension, as described in the topic, ”Stopping the CIM Extension” on page 183.
