Last Update: 11-OCT-2007 Operating System: Linux Component: job controller Base Level Required: PMDF V6.3-2 Other Requirements: none Platform Subdirectory File(s) to download -------- ------------ -------------------- Linux linux/bin/ job_controller GENERAL INFO ------------- You will need to have a License PAK with a release date after the date of PMDFSHR.EXE or libpmdf.so to run PMDF. Note that this may apply to other images as well. Patches may be obtained from the anonymous FTP account on ftp.pmdf.process.com. Use FTP to connect to the host ftp.pmdf.process.com and login as the user anonymous. Use your e-mail address as the login password. Move to the pmdf_632_patches subdirectory: ftp> cd pmdf_632_patches Patches will be located in platform-specific sub-trees, as follows: Platform Subdirectory -------- ------------ Linux linux When FTPing images, be sure to FTP them as binary. Before retrieving such an image with the GET command, be sure to put your FTP into binary mode with a command such as TYPE IMAGE or TYPE BINARY. Change history --------------- 11-OCT-2007 (ident V6.3-x14) Fixed the MAX_CONNS and MAX_AGE parameters so that they now work. Note that MAX_CONNS only applies to the tcp_smtp_client master job. Also, the System Manager's Guide for MAX_AGE incorrectly says that the default value is 5 minutes: it is in fact 30 minutes. Requires libpmdf.so and tcp_smtp_client version V6.3-x14. (D/E 10559) 11-OCT-2007 (ident V6.3-x14) Fixed some internal queue corruptions that could cause the job controller to crash, or hang, or not process messages correctly. (D/E 10540) 11-OCT-2007 (ident V6.3-x14) Fixed a problem with "pmdf cache -view" and QM not listing all messages that the job controller knew about. (D/E 10576) 11-OCT-2007 (ident V6.3-x14) The job controller now sorts messages that it reads from disk during start up (i.e. messages that were in the /pmdf/queue directories), based on the original submission time. (D/E 10587) Installation ------------ Linux Shut down PMDF. # pmdf shutdown To install the new image, place the image into /pmdf/bin and execute the following commands: # chown pmdf:bin /pmdf/bin/job_controller # chmod 755 /pmdf/bin/job_controller Start PMDF back up. # pmdf startup
