Managing HP X9000 Network Storage System Remote Replication Application Note (TA768-96049, November 2011)

A Log files
Remote replication writes to several log files in the /usr/local/ibrix/log directory on each
node. The names of the files start with ibrc.
[root@ibrix01a log]# pwd
/usr/local/ibrix/log
[root@ibrix01a log]# ls ibrc*
ibrcfrd.dbg ibrcfrd.err ibrcfrd.info ibrcfrworker.log ibrcud.dbg ibrcud.err ibrcud.info
The following log files are created on each target file serving node:
[root@ibrix02a log]# pwd
/usr/local/ibrix/log
[root@ibrix02a log]# ls ibrc*
ibrcfrd.dbg ibrcfrd.err ibrcfrd.info ibrcfrworkerd.log ibrcud.dbg ibrcud.err ibrcud.info
On a source, it is useful to look at ibrcfrworker.log and on a target, ibrcfrworkerd.log.
To see these logs changing in real time, do the following:
[root@ibrix01a ~]# tail -f /usr/local/ibrix/log/ibrcfrworker.log

These sample logs show that the file test.txt was replicated on the source, and report the size
of the file and the transfer speed. The logs also show that the file was received on the target and
specify the export to which it was written. The logs are not consolidated; there is a separate log
on each node. You need to look at the logs on each node to see the whole picture.
