NB: don't forget to replace the existing CALLBACK\xpIni.ini by the INI/xpIni.ini file. Your changes will take effect as soon as you'll reconnect to the GUI.
3.4.6.7 Maintenance
3.4.6.7.1 Log Files
Apache logs much information into its log files. Therefore, from time to time, it is necessary to purge those log files to avoid a full file system.
Here is how you can clean Apache's log files
•Open the Service Control Manager.
•Stop the Apache service.
•Go to the apache directory.
•Erase the logs files.
•Start the Apache service again.
If you want to disable Apache logging, simply add a comment character in front of the the following directives in httpd.conf : CustomLog & ErrorLog (refer to the configuration section of this manual to know where these files are located.)
Domain Monitoring GUI stores much information too, especially if the debugging is enabled. To remove the Domain Monitoring GUI server log files, simply erase all logs files present under DMG/Logs. There is no need to stop, restart any service/daemon. When you proceed to these cleaning operations, try to find a timeframe where the GUI's activity is relatively low.
3.4.6.7.2 DMG DB Backup
An hourly backup of the custom filters and custom views defined by the users is done alternatively against two databases (DMG_BCK001 & DMG_BCK002). An empty database (DMG_EMPTY.db) containing the whole structure becomes the new active database in case of recovery and the filters & views data is retrieved from either DMG_BCK001 or DMG_BCK002.
3.4.6.7.3 DMG DB Recovery mechanism
If you need to restore the backup, follow theses steps:
Before applying the recovery procedure, you have to stop the services (windows) that are currently querying the database.
•Open the Service Control Manager.
•stop the services named DMG Callbacks, DMG Monitoring and Apache.
•Open a command line box.
•Move to C:\Program Files\DomMonGui\Server\GOODIES.
•There, type in C:\Program files\php\php.exe dmg_recover.ph
•Restart the services.
3.4.6.8DMG Server: Installation problems
The installation packages should install the Domain Monitoring GUI without problems
The operating systems Windows Server 2000/2003 already contain the required libraries
Daemons
You can just try to register the daemons again.
Go to C:\Program Files\DomMonGui\DAEMONS.
Execute:
""C:\Program Files\php/php.exe xpGarbage.php
""C:\Program Files\php/php.exe xpGarbage.php
""C:Program Files\php/php.exe callBackDaemon.php
