list-servers

[paulstadler]

Hi

I am trying to list all the servers using the 'list-servers' command. Originally i had 2 servers and the command listed the 2 server as running correctly. (both of them are running)

I later created a new server using

tcserver-instance.sh -s TestSrv -t /usr/local/paul/AS/tcServer-6.0/OrigServer

(Note: i changed the port for this server to a new one. so technically this is a new server, except the contents are replicated from OrigServer)

If i then use the list-servers command, i only see the original 2 servers, the new server (TestSrv) is not listed.


One more issue i am having is...

If i stop one of the 2 original servers and use the list-servers command, it lists out the 2 servers and still showing them as running even though i stopped one of them. Do we need to refresh something to reflect the correct running servers? I waited 5 minutes and ran the command, then its showing as stopped. Is there a time lag to reflect the server status? can one change this time limit?


Thanks

Hi Paul,

1. After you created the new server, did you make sure to Add it from the Auto-discovery portlet on the dashboard?

2. The available value is on a polling cycle, just like it is in the UI. It is defaulted to 5 mins for server types, then you should see the updated status.
You can change the default per instance by going to Monitor -> Metric Data -> Select the availability Metric. Or you can change it per type (which sounds like this is what you want) by going to Administration ->Monitoring Defaults.

Jason, I am doing everything from the unix command line, no UI.

so does this mean that i need to use the UI?

Paul,

Yes, the current release of tc Server does not have the ability to approve auto-discovered items. So you will need to use the ui for that case. The tc Server CLI is specific to tc Server functionality only, we will have a CLI for AMS functionality in an upcoming release.
