3.2.11 Checking the operation of the system that has been built

Once you have finished building a system and an inspection of its settings and definitions shows no problems, check the operation of the system you built. This subsection explains only those items that must be carefully examined in systems that use HA Monitor Kit. For details about system operation check, see the description under Checking the operation of the configured system in the manual HA Monitor (for Linux(R)).

Organization of this subsection
(1) Checking the operation of servers
(2) Hot-standby test

(1) Checking the operation of servers

This subsection explains how to check the startup and shutdown of the servers necessary for using HA Monitor Kit.

Server startup check

Check the following based on the HA Monitor Kit server log:

If no message was output, the environment variable that you set in the server start command might be invalid. For details about how to set up the server start command, see 4.2 Server start command setup.

Server stop check

Check the following based on the HA Monitor Kit server log:

If no message was output, the environment variable that you set in the server termination command might be invalid. For details about how to set up the server termination command, see 4.3 Server termination command setup.

Server monitoring check

Check the following based on the HA Monitor Kit server log:

If no message was output, the environment variable that you set in the server monitoring command or server monitoring command runtime shell might be invalid. For details about how to set up the server monitoring command and server monitoring command runtime shell, see 4.4 Server monitoring command setup.

(2) Hot-standby test

This subsection explains the hot-standby test to perform when using HA Monitor Kit.

Checking for planned hot standby and checking for automatic hot standby upon server failure

After hot standby has been successful, check the following based on the HA Monitor Kit server log at the switching-destination host:

If no message was output, the environment variable that you set in the server start command might be invalid. For details about how to set up the server start command, see 4.2 Server start command setup.
