Setup guide
When troubleshooting storage or wire issues, you should always start by
verifying that Stone and Wire processes are running properly, and by checking
the log files.
Verifying that Stone and Wire Processes Are Running
There are five processes that must be running for Stone and Wire to work:
■ sw_serverd
■ sw_probed
■ sw_dbd
■ sw_bwmgr
■ ifffsWiretapServer. This process is started by the sw_wiretapd script.
To verify that Stone and Wire processes are running:
1 Type the following command:
ps -ef | grep sw_
This command should return several lines similar to the following:
root 9447 1 0 Feb25 0:00:35 /usr/discreet/sw/sw_probed
--daemonize
root 9455 1 0 Feb25 0:00:35 /usr/discreet/sw/sw_dbd -d
root 9463 1 0 Feb25 0:08:11 /usr/discreet/sw/sw_bwmgr -d
root 9472 1 0 Feb25 0:08:11 /usr/discreet/sw/sw_serverd
-d
root 9513 1 0 Feb25 0:00:00 /bin/sh
/usr/discreet/sw/sw_wiretapd
2 To verify that the ifffsWiretapServer process is running, type:
ps -ef | grep Wire
The command should return a line similar to the following:
root 9522 9513 0 Feb25 00:03:29
/usr/discreet/wiretap/2010/ifffsWiretapServer -c
/usr/discreet/wiretap/cfg/wiretapd.cfg
3 If Stone and Wire processes are not running, start them.
