Command Overview
For more information on critical errors, you can scan the EMS collectors on the primary
and backup systems:
•
The EMS collector on the primary system contains log messages for the extractor
and monitor processes.
•
The EMS collector on the backup system contains log messages for the receiver,
purger, and all updater processes.
Special Messages
If you issue the STATUS RDF command while an RDF TAKEOVER operation is in
progress, RDF displays the current state as “TAKEOVER IN PROGRESS.”
If you issue the STATUS RDF command after an RDF TAKEOVER operation has
completed, RDFCOM displays the following message instead of the usual status
display:
STATUS RDF (\primary -> \backup) is NOT running.
An RDF TAKEOVER has completed.
