Monitoring Tasks for Streamers and Vaults
To monitor the Streamer and Vaults weekly, do the following:
Step 1 Recover used disk space. Log in to each server using the root logon and run the following command:
dh -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1 13G 5.2G 7.0G 43% /
/dev/hda6 20G 16G 4.3G 78% /arroyo/log
If the disk usage is greater than 75 percent, recover the disk space using the following methods:
a. Search and remove any core files.
find /arroyo –name core*
find /home/isa –name core*
b. Copy any archived logs to an external device and delete them from the /arroyo/archive directory.
c. Check for the presence of old install or upgrade ISO files in the /root directory and delete them.
find /root –name *.iso
find /arroyo –name *.iso
Step 2 Verify the services are running. Choose Monitor > Server Level > Services Monitor to check the
services for each server, or log in to each server and run the following commands:
su - isa
