Chapter 13: Using Cisco Common Tools

How to Use the Procmon Utility

Note: The /noall switch. Leaving tracing turned up can cause performance problems.

Exiting and Quitting OPCTest

Use the quit command to exit OPCTest.

Warning: Use the exit_opc command with caution. This command instructs the OPC process (on both sides of the PG if duplexed) to exit. Node Manager forces the process to restart, which then forces it to reload the configuration for the Call Router. All internal peripheral and agent states are flushed, then OPC and PIM re-learn the PG and its configuration.

How to Use the Procmon Utility

Use the Procmon utility for general-purpose ICM command-line debugging. It can be used in conjunction with various NIC and PIM. processes. Procmon allows you to perform actions like verifying status, setting debug trace bits, and so on.

For use with ICM PGs and Call Routers only.

Note: This tool can be used in both Interactive Mode and Batch Mode. For details on scheduling this tool to run in batch mode see Using Batch Mode.
