About this appendix:

This appendix describes the Sheer DNA utility scripts.

Restarting Sheer DNA Gateway, below, describes how to restart the Sheer DNA Gateway from the Unix command line.

Restarting a Sheer DNA Unit, page 155, describes how to restart a Sheer DNA Unit from the Unix command line.

Executing a Command on all Sheer DNA Units, page 156, describes the script used to execute a given command on all of the Sheer DNA Units.

A.1 Restarting Sheer DNA Gateway

The user can restart the Sheer DNA Gateway from the Unix command line.

To restart the Sheer DNA Gateway

1.Open a Telnet session to the Sheer DNA Gateway machine and login to the machine.

2.Execute the script:

~sheer/Main/mvm.csh

Note: When the Sheer DNA Gateway is restarted, all of the clients are reconnected.

Note: The Server status can be verified using Sheer DNA Manage.

A.2 Restarting a Sheer DNA Unit

Restarting a Sheer DNA Unit machine kills all of the AVM processes on the machine and restarts them.

Given that the system saves part of its information within the process memory, restarting a Sheer DNA Unit will cause some of the information to disappear. It will, therefore, take as long as the longest full polling cycle for the system to recover all of the information that was stored in the process memory prior to the restart. Data that was saved in persistent storage before restarting will be available immediately.
