lpar2rrd data after migration

in LPAR2RRD

Hi there,

I have copied the lpar2rrd/data directory to a new lpar2rrd instance on another linux server and since there no new lpar2rrd agent data is collected. I have changed all crontab entries for all clients, but for me it looks like that the lpar2rrd-daemon.pl don't start the lpar2rrd service on tcp port 8162 correct.

In the lsof -i command I can see that the lpar2rrd service is on LISTEN, but a telnet from a client to the server don't work:

lsof -i

perl       5809  xormon    3u  IPv4 85639007      0t0  TCP *:lpar2rrd (LISTEN)

$ grep lpar2rrd /etc/services
lpar2rrd           8162/tcp     # LPAR2RRD client server communication  [LPAR2RRD_project] [Pavel_Hampl]

$ telnet <lpar2rrd_ip> 8162                         
Trying...


Thanks for your support!

    Hi,

    on the server:
    netstat -rn | grep 8162
    ps -ef| grep lpar2rrd-daemon

    I think it is running, but just make sure.

    As per telnet test it seem to ne network access issue (blocked of firewalls)

    Hi Pavel,

    see the lsof -i output beore. the firewall department told me the the lpar2rrd server is not responding.

    here is ps -efa output:

    $ ps -efa | grep lpar2rrd-daemon

    it looks good! :)

    It does not responding before all 5 process are serving clients.
    perhaps a lot of data to load (all missing data from all agents)

    It might take longer time, not sure how much agents do you have and how long was outage (migration window)

    either wait till it finishes or you can increase of number processes on the server side (in the daemon) to speed it up.

    su - lpar2rrd
    cd /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd
    echo "LPAR2RRD_FORK_MAX=20" >> etc/.magic
    echo "export LPAR2RRD_FORK_MAX" >> etc/.magic
    ./load.sh daemon_stop
    ./load.sh daemon

    Hi Pavel,

    thanks for the response. in the log/daemon.out file I got now following messages:

    ....

    Wait for chld  : 0 : 49 : 25245 : Wed Dec 19 09:46:08 2018

    ...

    should now the lpar2rrd clients send there data to the new lpar2rrd server that are missing? and should i see after a couple of hours that the graphics close the missing time windows between the migration window?


    thanks

    no new data, since the data migration, for example the client lnx0223a, is shown in the lpar2rrd gui. I have migrated the data on 13.12.2018

    how can i check if the new data is collected by the new lpar2rrd server installation and why the graphics in the lpar2rrd gui doesn't show the new collected data (see the screenshot attached)

    In the screenshot I see "Updated: Fri Dec 14 01:55:01 2018", maybe that's the problem?!?

    Hi Pavel,
    the graphics are now generated correctly, after the initial data collect job was finished last night.

    I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for your excellent support this year. It encourages us in the decision for lpar2rrd.
