    SiteMinder Health Monitor Service service terminated unexpectedly message? What is the version of java the policy server is using?

    If you run this service as administrator from command line, C:\CA\siteminder\bin\Service_MonSrvr.exe

    Do you get any error message back?

    For troubleshooting, let's trace the Monitor. Hopefully we can see why it is not starting. It could be a blocked port for example.

    • Go to the <siteminder>\config\ path and edit the trace.conf file.
    • It should look like this:
    # Common logging settings
    nete.enableConsoleLog=0
    nete.enableFileLog=1
    nete.logFile=c:\mon.log
    # Connection API logging levels. There are three levels: 0 - no trace events, 1 - error and warning trace events,
    # 2 - all trace events
    nete.conapi.logLevel=2
    nete.conapi.ipc.logLevel=2
    nete.conapi.tcpip.logLevel=2
    # Monitoring infrastructure modules logging settings
    nete.mon.agentLogLevel=2
    nete.mon.monitorLogLevel=2
    nete.mon.monitorDbLogLevel=2
    nete.mon.monitorChannelLogLevel=2
    nete.mon.monitorChannelTrLogLevel=2
    nete.mon.monitoringApiLogLevel=2
    nete.mon.monitorClientApiLogLevel=2
    nete.mon.monitoringAgentProxyLogLevel=2
    • Restart the Policy Server and Monitor service.
    • This will create a mon.log in the root of C: with full tracing enabled.

     

    In this mon.log, you should see messages like this:

    (MONAPI ) > Sm_MonApi_RegisterComponent(): start
    (MONAPI ) > reinitiateChannelIfClosed(): start
    (MONAPI ) > reinitiateChannelIfClosed(): completed
    (MONAPI ) > Sm_MonApi_RegisterComponent(): completed
    (MONAPI ) > processTransactionMessage() start

    Also if I may suggest, due to the nature of this issue with the tracing needed and potential log review required, it might be better to go ahead and create a Support ticket and reference your Communities post.
