2.4.3 Starting and terminating the log daemon

(1) Starting the log daemon

To start the log daemon:

1. As a superuser, execute the jftslogd command.

   The log daemon's message is output to the system log file and to the terminal where the command was entered.

   For details about the jftslogd command, see jftslogd - starts the log daemon in 6. Commands.

Automatic startup method (in HP-UX, Solaris, and Linux)

• There are two ways to have the log daemon start automatically during system startup, as described below. When either of these settings is specified, it takes effect the next time the system is started.

• Use a program (such as a text editor) to open /etc/opt/jp1_fts/startup, delete the comment (:#), and then save the file.

• Replace /etc/opt/jp1_fts/startup with a shell that has been customized using /etc/opt/jp1_fts/startup.model.

Automatic startup method (in AIX)

To have the log daemon start automatically during system startup, you must specify the settings described below. These settings take effect the next time the system is started.

1. Creating the start command

Create the start command using either of the following methods:

• Use a program (such as a text editor) to open /etc/opt/jp1_fts/startup, delete the comment (:#), and then save the file.

• Replace /etc/opt/jp1_fts/startup with a shell that has been customized using /etc/opt/jp1_fts/startup.model.

2. Specifying the automatic startup setting

Use the mkitab command to specify the automatic startup setting:

# mkitab "jp1_fts:2:wait:/etc/opt/jp1_fts/startup"

If you use JP1-series products, you must first set JP1/Base and then set the other JP1-series products sequentially so that the automatic startup sequence is set correctly. If you use JP1/IM and JP1/AJS3, register the JP1/FTP start command after them.

For example, to have JP1/Base, JP1/IM, JP1/AJS3, and JP1/FTP start automatically in this order, execute the following commands:

# mkitab -i hntr2mon "jp1base:2:wait:/etc/opt/jp1base/jbs_start"
# mkitab -i jp1base "jp1cons:2:wait:/etc/opt/jp1cons/jco_start"
# mkitab -i jp1cons "jp1ajs2:2:wait:/etc/opt/jp1ajs2/jajs_start"
# mkitab -i jp1ajs2 "jp1_fts:2:wait:/etc/opt/jp1_fts/startup"

After you have specified the settings, use the lsitab command to check the settings.

Execute the following command:

# lsitab -a

Example of output

init:2:initdefault:
brc::sysinit:/sbin/rc.boot 3 >/dev/console 2>&1 # Phase 3 of system boot
            :
hntr2mon:2:once:/opt/hitachi/HNTRLib2/etc/D002start
jp1base:2:wait:/etc/opt/jp1base/jbs_start
jp1cons:2:wait:/etc/opt/jp1cons/jco_start
jp1ajs2:2:wait:/etc/opt/jp1ajs2/jajs_start
jp1_fts:2:wait:/etc/opt/jp1_fts/startup

(2) Terminating the log daemon

Once the log daemon has terminated, no more event logs will be received.

To terminate the log daemon:

1. As a superuser, execute the ftslogstop command.

   The log daemon's message is output to the system log file and to the terminal where the command was entered.

   For details about the ftslogstop command, see ftslogstop - terminates the log daemon in 6. Commands.

Automatic termination method (in HP-UX, Solaris, and Linux)

Once it has been installed, the log daemon is set to terminate automatically during system termination. If you want to change the termination procedure, replace /etc/opt/jp1_fts/stop with a shell that has been created using /etc/opt/jp1_fts/stop.model.

Automatic termination method (in AIX)

To have the log daemon terminate automatically during system termination, add the following settings to /etc/rc.shutdown:

Example

if [ -x /etc/opt/jp1_fts/stop ]
then
    /etc/opt/jp1_fts/stop
fi

If there is no /etc/rc.shutdown file, you must create it. In such a case, set the attributes of the /etc/rc.shutdown file as follows:

chmod 550 /etc/rc.shutdown
chown root /etc/rc.shutdown
chgrp shutdown /etc/rc.shutdown

If you use JP1-series products, you must set this termination processing so that it executes before the termination processing for JP1/Base and JP1/AJS3.

If you want to terminate programs in a different manner from what is shown above, replace /etc/opt/jp1_fts/stop with a shell that has been created using /etc/opt/jp1_fts/stop.model.
