Operational Commands
New Operational Commands
Because of NAM support, OVNPM AAE comes with a new set of operational commands. All new
commands support the ‘-?’ option to display the up-to-date online help. For compatibility reason, old
commands sv_start_*, sv_start_ns_*, sv_stop_* and sv_status_subsys are still available.
sv_status
‘sv_status –d’ gives a status detail of all OVNPM processes. This is similar to the superseded
sv_status_susys display
‘sv_status –r’ gives the raw status of OVNPM processes. It just a short form of ’status *, prog
<ovnpmExeSubvolume>.*’
‘sv_status’ gives a brief status of all OVNPM applications, when the NAM is running. If NAM is not
running it behaves like “sv_status –d”
‘sv_status <appName>’ gives a status of application <appName> when NAM is running. Otherwise
it behave like “sv_status –d”
sv_nam
Activates or deactivates the fault tolerant feature for OVNPM Subsystem. Refer to NAM activation
command or “sv_nam -?” for more details.
sv_start
Starting OVNPM Subsystem
Commands ‘sv_start’, ‘sv_start *’ or ‘sv_start subsys’ start the complete OVNPM subsystem. In other words
those 3 commands start all configured applications in the OVNPM subsystem.
Starting individual application
You can start application one by one with command ‘sv_start <appName>’
Where appName can be: core, sn, dsv, and dsn
sv_stop
Command ‘sv_stop *’ or ‘sv_stop subsys’ stop ovnpm subsystem. In other words it stop all running
application belong the OVNPM subsystem.
Command sv_stop <appName> where appName can be: core, sn, dsn and dsv stop the specify
application.
For more detail enter ‘sv_stop -?’
SV_START_TERM
Starts the low-level protocol (LLP) server on the HP NonStop host. This LLP server communicates with the
Display Agent. This command can only be used in the Connection window and is used to gain access to
the Microsoft Windows dialog box.
This command is only used when gaining access to the server with the asynchronous line or using a telnet
connection.
Superseded Operational Commands
SV_START_SUBSYS
Starts the OVNPM subsystem without fault-tolerant operation. The Collection Manager, Database Server,
and Display Server are started. The Collection Manager starts a Basic Collector in each CPU. The status of
the subsystem is monitored with SV_STATUS_SUBSYS.
If Navigator is registered, it also starts the Navigator Server and its TCP/IP server.
SV_START_SN
Starts the Navigator server and its TCP/IP Server. This command should be used only when the Navigator
Server and its TCP/IP Server have been stopped (for example, after a TCP/IP problem has occurred). The
Navigator Server and its TCP/IP Server are normally started with the command SV_START_SUBSYS.
