RE: [NV-L] nvUtil dying

["Kain, Becki \(B.\)" <bkain1@ford.com>]

This is where it's dying:

 

/usr/OV/bin/nvdbimport -f /opt/Tivoli/custom/scripts/tmp/QClear.import 2>> /opt/Tivoli/custom/logs/nv/NV_TEC_TICKETS20070619.log

where the file QClear.import is 204262 in size.  could that be a limit for nvdbimport?  and I'll have to go back through the code and try to figure out why we are making this setting, but could that be the problem?  thanks

Bad syntax for the rule might do it. 
What rule were you using ? 

Did 
nvUtil throw an error when it died ? 
Does "die" mean exit or hung (never returns bad to the command prompt) 
? 

Of the bunch of nvUtils your 
script runs, how many of them does your script complete before the problem 
occurs ... can you pinpoint the problematic nvUtil call within your script and 
provide some details of its syntax (rule etc) ? 

When you attempt the "nvUtil L" after your script 
completes, I'm assuming one of the nvUtil's from your script has already hosed 
things. Can you check to see if any nvUtils are still left running (ps -ef |grep 
nvUtil), kill them, then retry your "nvUtil L" test to see if that is all that 
is needed to resume normal operation (instead of restarting the daemons). If 
not, just recycle nvcold daemon and see if that frees things up.

What would cause nvUtil to die when all the daemons are up, based on 
ovstatus?  Is there a limit to how big a list can be , that is returned by 
nvUtil e?  I'm trying to debug this issue, and a bunch of nvUtil e's are 
issued for this script, and for unknown reasons, after this script runs, nvUtil 
L never returns and I have to stop all the daemons and restart them.  The 
code has not changed, at all, on the Netview servers, but I was thinking that 
the output of the nvUtil was too big and hitting some limit
