  • 1.  How can OPS/MVS tell when CEMETOM is up?

    Posted Feb 01, 2018 12:50 PM

    We have been having issues with starting CEM. The CEMETOM tomcat task is only issuing the IEF403I message and when we use that as the UP message for OPS/MVS the CEMERTR starts too soon as the tomcat server does not appear to be fully active yet. How can we get CEMETOM to notify OPS/MVS that it is up and available?

     

    For example

    the CEMERTR puts these messages into the system log for OPS/MVS:

    CEM0113I CEM ROUTER - Subtask Manager initializing
    CEM0119I CEM ROUTER - Initialization Complete     

     

    the CEMELDAP puts this message into the system log

    ETLDP01I CA LDAP Server r15.1 has started

     

    the CEMLOGGR puts these messages into the system log

    CEM0301I CEM Logger Connecting to Logstream: CEM.P310.CEMELG
    CEM0324I CEM Logger ENF Exit Activated                     
    CEM0202I CEM Listener Activation Complete                  
    CEM0208I CEM Listener Communication Task Activation        
    CEM0210I CEM Listener Attaching Permanent Servers          
    CEM0213I CEM Listener Router Registration                  
    CEM0120I CEM ROUTER - Registration Complete for: LOGGER    

     

    the CEMMON puts these messages into the system log

    CEM0202I CEM Listener Activation Complete               
    CEM0208I CEM Listener Communication Task Activation     
    CEM0210I CEM Listener Attaching Permanent Servers       
    CEM0213I CEM Listener Router Registration               
    CEM0120I CEM ROUTER - Registration Complete for: MONITOR

     

    warehouse same thing.

     

    but for CEMETOM tomcat all we get is this:

    IEF403I CEMETOM - STARTED - TIME=05.00.36

     

    Is there a configuration parameter we can set to have it put an up message in the system log?

    Hi Eric,

    You should check this message in the CEMETOM stc, then it will be fully initialized..

     

         CATC0002 Apache Tomcat 8 started in: ****** ms

     

    See in the CEM documentation at this url for every CEM stc initialization message :

    Hi Hennie,

    Thank you for taking the time to read my question.

    And that is probably the root source of my question, we are not getting that message. Is there a configuration item that needs to be added or changed to have messages like that display?  Here is what we have in the jeslog:

    I did a find for CATC0002 and it was not found in the output as can be seen in the SDSF screen shot above. Is this a configuration issue where we are not getting the messages into the log?

     

    Thank you.

    Hi Eric,

     

    Sorry, but i cannot answer your question about the missing message.. I'm a CA OPS/MVS support person, and don't know little of CEM.... I want to advise you to open a case for CEM and ask them what could be causing this missing message....

    Thanks for your assistance, I appreciate it. I am also OPS/MVS support here and not CEM.

    Perhaps CASTATE API is being generated. If not, you should request/inform CEM support that it should comply with CA standard of generating common CASTATE STARTING/UP msgs, thus making your single )API CASTATE rule the focal rule to set CA product states. Your APIACTIVE OPS/MVS parm will need to be set to ON for OPS to receive API events from CA products. For the CASTATE APIs for SSM management in OPSLOG they may appear like: State of CA xxxx is STARTING/STOPPING/UP. These will be API events (EVENT column) with a Msg id of CASTATE.

    Is the CATC0002 found anywhere in your log? I am wondering if maybe it is coming out just not in the tomcat task. RMF Monitor 3  is like that. The initialization messages we key off show up in the main RMF task but not in the RMF3 task.
