HP XP P9000 RAID Manager Reference Guide (T1610-96061, January 2014)

DescriptionOption
HORCMSTART_WAIT (for waiting the RAID Manager instance with start-up). Horcmgr does fork/exec()
horcmd_XX as daemon process, and verifies/waits until HORCM become ready state. The timeout
is used for only avoiding infinite loop, currently the default time is 200 sec in consideration of
maximum LDEV. However, it may be needed to change the default timeout value for starting HORCM
under high-loading of the server, or the remote command device. In such a case, this environmental
variable is used when changing a timeout value (in units of Sec) from the current default value (200
sec), this value must be specified more than 5 seconds and multiple of 5 seconds. For example,
setting 500 sec:
HORCMSTART_WAIT=500 Export HORCMSTART_WAIT
For OpenVMS platform: OpenVMS needs to make the Detached LOGINOUT.EXE Process as a JOB
in the background by using the 'RUN /DETACHED' command. For details see Requirements and
restrictions for OpenVMS (item 4) in the Installation and Configuration Guide.
horcmshutdown
The horcmshutdown command is a script for stopping HORCM.
Syntax
horcmshutdown.sh {inst...} (UNIX systems)
horcmshutdown.exe {inst...} (Windows systems)
Options and parameters
DescriptionOption
Specifies the HORCM (RAID Manager) instance number (numerical value). When this option is
specified, the command stops the specified HORCM instance. When this option is not specified, the
inst
command refers to the instance (environment variable HORCMINST) of the execution environment
of this shell script and stops the following the HORCM instance.
When HORCMINST is specified, this command stops the HORCM instance of the execution
environment of this shell script.
When HORCMINST is not specified, this command stops the HORCM having no instance setting.
CAUTION: After direction of stopping HORCM instance, this command returns a response just
before stopping HORCM instance. Thus to return the response of this command, it does not mean
HORCM instance disappeared.
horcctl
The HORCM software have logs that identify the cause of software and/or hardware errors as
well as a tracing function for investigating such errors. The location of the log files depends on the
user's command execution environment and the HORCM execution environment. The command
trace file and core file reside together under the directory specified in the HORCM execution
environment.
The horcctl command can be used for both maintenance and troubleshooting. The horcctl command
allows you to change and display the internal trace control parameters (for example, level, type,
buffer size) of the HORC Manager and/or Continuous Access Synchronous commands. If a new
value for a parameter is not specified, the current trace control parameter is displayed.
Caution: Do not change the trace level unless directed to do so by a HP representative. Level 4 is
the normal trace level setting. Levels 0-3 are for troubleshooting. Setting a trace level other than 4
may impact problem resolution. If you request a change of the trace level using the horcctl -l <level>
command, a warning message appears, and this command enters interactive mode.
