6.5 HP StoreAll OS CLI Reference Guide

Clears the Manual Intervention Failure (MIF) state for the file system named in the command:
ibrix_archiving -C FSNAME
A file system is assigned a Manual Intervention Failure (MIF) state when Express Query detects
that the file system’s database is in an inconsistent state that Express Query cannot automatically
correct. When a database is in a MIF state, all changes to files in this file system continue to be
logged, but they are not processed into the database tables. The contents of the database are not
updated until you correct the problem in the database. If you are not sure how to correct the
problem, contact HP support.
After you manually correct the problem that caused the MIF state, run the ibrix_archiving
-C FSNAME command to re-enable the use of this database. After you run/execute the
ibrix_archiving -C FSNAME command, the file system attempts to recover and the state
(shown by the ibrix_archiving -l command) becomes RECOVERY. If the recovery fails, the
file system goes into a MIF state again. If recovery succeeds, the file system’s state is set to OK
and it processes all outstanding logged file system changes and it will continue to update the
database of new changes.
Display the status of the Express Query system:
ibrix_archiving -i
Displays the status of the Express Query system. For example:
AJ Database Status : OK
AJ Scanner Status : OK
Command succeeded!
Start the set of Express Query Daemons:
ibrix_archiving -s
Stop the archiving system:
ibrix_archiving -S [-F] [-t timeout secs]
Stops the set of Express Query daemons.
The -t option specifies the time (in seconds) to wait for the Express Query daemons to stop
gracefully.
The -F option forcefully stops the daemons and disables database access to all file systems enabled
for Express Query.
NOTE:
• The database is stored on the file system, and it is closed before the file system is unmounted.
Because closing the database can take a long time, the -F option can be used to forcefully
stop the archiving daemons and disable database access to all file systems enabled for Express
Query. When you restart the archiving system after using the -F option, the database enters
in recovery mode, which can take a long time to complete depending on the size of the
database.
• If unmounting the file system is unsuccessful, wait a few minutes and retry the unmount operation
again. If it is still unsuccessful, run the ibrix_archiving -S -F command to force the
unmount, which will stop the Express Query services and forcefully close all database files.
Restart the archiving system:
ibrix_archiving -r
Stops and immediately restarts the set of Express Query daemons.
Change the timeout period for the archiving component watchdog:
ibrix_archiving -w timeout
Changes the timeout period for the Express Query watchdog. The default timeout is 30 seconds.
The watchdog periodically checks the health of the daemon processes and restarts them if necessary.
