4.2.5 Notes on using the health check function

A process that is forcibly terminated by the kill command or other means is not detected as having terminated abnormally. Instead, the health check function detects that there is no response from the process (error message KAVA7014-E). However, the elapsed time at error detection in this case differs from the time passed since execution of the kill command. Because the health check function determines the error status from the update time of the shared memory used internally by the process, the abnormal status can be detected very soon after the process is forcibly terminated.
When a process is forcibly terminated by the kill command or other means and termination processing does not finish, a message reporting that an error was detected in the aborted process might be issued when you restart the affected service.
When process restart is specified in the extended startup process definition file (jp1bs_service_0700.conf) for a process that ends abnormally, a message (KAVB3605-I or KAVB3616-I) will be output to report that the process has restarted. This might be followed by another message (KAVA7017-E) reporting abnormal termination of the process. Check the process status using the jbs_spmd_status command.
