Operating System Requirements

Patches

NOTE: ADIC recommends that you install all required Y2K patches for your machine.
Make sure you install all the patches that your vendor recommends for your kernel, operating system,
network, hardware, media, drive type, and storage devices.
Additionally, ADIC requires the patches, filesets, or packages listed below to successfully operate
FileServ. Obtain these patches from the appropriate vendor.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANT (CR #237)
When FileServ is running on Y2K-compliant operating systems, including systems with Y2K-compliant
patches, FileServ is Y2K Option 1-compliant. This means that a year is designated as a four-digit number,
for example, 2000. (FileServ has been Y2K-compliant since Version 3.5.)
Operating Issues
fileserv -t -y LEAVES UNWANTED PROCESSES RUNNING (CR #921)
• Running fileserv -t -y unconditionally exits after the number of seconds specified in the
sysparm value configured in the $FS_TERMTIMEOUT_VALUE parameter. After FileServ terminates,
there may be unwanted processes still running. To check for these processes, type the following:
Look for processes that should not be running, and determine which ones need to be terminated.
fsloglevel COMMAND (CR #829)
• The fsloglevel command does not affect all log messages. A more reliable method for changing
the logging level is to modify the FS_LOG_LEVEL variable in the $FS_HOME/sysparm/fs_sysparm
file.
