Agenda NW Administration’s Purpose & Tasks Architecture Monitoring Task Configuration Task Devices Task Media Task NW Privileges and NMC Licensing EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY 101
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 root@nmc_serv 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 root@nmc_serv and administrator@nmc_serv need to have NW server permission. – Each NMC user is given separate permission EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY 102
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. EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY 103
Troubleshooting: NMC Server Review log files on Windows: C: Program FilesLegatoManagementGSTlogs 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 EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY 104
Troubleshooting: Server Directories The logs directory The DB directory EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY 105
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. EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY 106
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) EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY 107
Troubleshooting: Opening an Incident Open incident in DDTS and assign it to nwcon user Contact development team: nmc-eng@legato. com 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 EMC CONFIDENTIAL—INTERNAL USE ONLY 108
