102 EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY User Privileges on the NW Server New cmd (nsraddadmin): grants permission to NMC, when it is on a different host than the NW server. –For example: nsraddadmin –u Both the gstd process owner and the NMC user need to have NW server permission. –For example: For a Solaris NMC Server on host nmc_serv, both and need to have NW server permission. –Each NMC user is given separate permission
103 EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY Licensing Please see the Console-level TOI for NMC Licensing in 7.3 NW User Groups are no longer licensed in 7.3. So new ones can be created.
104 EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY Troubleshooting: NMC Server Review log files on Windows: C:\Program Files\Legato\Management\GST\logs on Solaris: /opt/LGTOnmc/logs on Linux: /opt/lgtonmc/logs Start gstd with -Dn, where n = 1 through 6 (a lot of output above 2) Debug level can be changed from the System Options (Setup task) Environment variables –GST_MAXLOGSIZE –GST_MAXLOGVERS –GST_DEBUG
105 EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY Troubleshooting: Server Directories The DB directory The logs directory
106 EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY Troubleshooting: NMC Client Enable the output of client log messages: –Open the Java Web Start Application Manager –Go to File->Preferences->Advanced –Check "Show Java Console" to display Java Console window when the client is running. –Check "Log Output" if you would like the info in a file.
107 EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY Troubleshooting: Client Debug Level Set the debug level of the client by: –Pressing CTRL, SHIFT & right mouse button in any details pane (right side of screen) –In the menu, select required debug level – Output to Java Console (see previous slide)
108 EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY Troubleshooting: Opening an Incident Open incident in DDTS and assign it to nwcon user Contact development team: When reporting problems, include: –Console server & client platforms, including patches & service packs –Platform & version of NW servers –Console log files, core files, or Dr. Watson files –Java Console output
