Troubleshooting: Specific Problems

RPC Daemon or Local Location Broker Problems and
Solutions

Problem

ITO agent processes cannot be stopped.

Description

If you receive a message that some ITO agent processes could not be
stopped, or if you find that agent processes are still running although the
control agent exited, stop all running ITO agent processes.

Solution

Stop the processes by executing

\opt\OV\bin\OpC\utils\opckill.exe

.

Problem

Control agent does not come up on node, or ITO error log file contains
errors indicating an NCS or DCE problem.

Description

If a registered ITO process stops responding, even though it is running,
there may be a problem with the NCS local location broker daemon
(

llbd

), or the DCE RPC daemon (

dced/rpcd

).

Solution

For UNIX systems: check that the

dced

/

rpcd

is running on the

management server, and that either an

llbd

or

dced

/

rpcd

is running on

all managed nodes.

ps -eaf | grep dced (rpcd)

ps -eaf | grep llbd

You can use the tools

rpccp

/

dcecp

to check that

rpcd

/

dced

is running.

You can use the tool

lb_admin

to check whether all registered services

can still be reached or not. For MPE systems: If the problem occurs on
an MPE node, this tool is also available, but under the name

lbadmin.pub.hpncs

. In addition, a tool called

ncktest.pub.hpncs

is

available to check whether NCS is configured properly. The most
important sub-commands for

ncktest

are:

• broker local debug

• config

• files

• loopback
