DBMS Server Stopped
Once started with ingstart, the DBMS Server process must continue running until the ingstop or iimonitor command is issued to stop it. If the DBMS Server stops running (“dies”) for any other reason, report it to technical support along with the associated error log messages and, if possible, the cause of the DBMS Server stopping.
1. Document error log entries associated with the process death. Details on reading the log files are described in Check the Error Log Files (see page Check the Error Log Files). Save all errors for technical support.
2. Isolate the reason your DBMS Server process died.
a. Isolate which operations, application, query, and tables are needed to duplicate the problems. See the copyapp and unloaddb command descriptions in the Command Reference Guide.
b. Save this to make a test case for technical support.
3. If the immediate cause cannot be isolated, perform long-term diagnostics with II_DBMS_LOG. This diagnostic tool is especially valuable for fatal DMF errors.
a. Set II_DBMS_LOG to capture a “snapshot” of the DBMS Server when it stops by setting it to the full path name of a file before starting the DBMS Server. For example:
