Configuring RDF
Extractor Process
Use SET EXTRACTOR and ADD EXTRACTOR commands to configure the following
extractor parameters:
•
ATINDEX
•
CPUS primary-CPU : backup-CPU
•
PRIORITY
•
PROCESS
•
RTDWARNING
The CPUS option value specifies the processors in the primary system in which the
extractor will run.
The PRIORITY option value specifies the priority at which the extractor will run. You
should set the extractor’s priority slightly lower than that of the RDF monitor process.
The PROCESS option value supplies a name for the extractor process. You should
specify a meaningful mnemonic such as $EXT. The process name can be any unique
valid process name up to 5 characters, including the $ symbol. However, you cannot
specify HP reserved process names that are of the form $X*, $Y*, or $Z*, in which *
is any alphanumeric string.
The RTDWARNING option value specifies the RTD warning threshold (in seconds,
0 or greater) for the extractor. This threshold is used by the STATUS RTDWARNING
command to determine if the extractor is to be included in its display. The display
includes the monitor process and only those RDF processes (extractor or updaters)
whose RTD exceeds their configured RTD warning threshold.
To configure an RDF extractor process named $EXT to run as a process pair in CPUs
5 and 3 of the primary system, at a priority of 185, with an RTD warning threshold of
360 seconds, issue the following commands:
]SET EXTRACTOR PROCESS $EXT
]SET EXTRACTOR CPUS 5:3
]SET EXTRACTOR PRIORITY 185
]SET EXTRACTOR RTDWARNING 360
]SET EXTRACTOR ATINDEX 0
]ADD EXTRACTOR
You can issue ADD EXTRACTOR commands only when RDF is stopped.
