Fsepartition --status PartitionName

Description	After running the fsefile command with any of the following options: --history, --recall,
	--migrate, --trigger-migration, the command fails and reports:
	6004 Caught Corba exception.
Explanation	See Workaround.
Workaround	First, try to identify the problem as follows:
	1. Find out the status of the FSE partition with the command:
	fsepartition --status PartitionName
	2. Check if the fse-hsmprocess is running on the corresponding FSE client.
	Linux specific
	Use the command ps -ef grep fse-hsm.
	Windows specific
	Use Windows Task Manager for this purpose.
	If the partition status is set to any other value than mounted, and the fse-hsmprocess is
	running on the client, the problem may be caused by an improper configuration of the
	omniORB.cfg files. For information on which omniORB.cfg settings are correct and how to
	configure omniORB.cfg appropriately, see ”Reconfiguring FSE interprocess communication”
	on page 83.

Description	In a distributed or mixed FSE implementation, after the consolidated FSE system or FSE server is
	restarted, the fsepartition -l -D command reports FSE partitions on external FSE clients as not
	mounted.
Explanation	The consolidated FSE system or FSE server lost connection with all external FSE clients after it
	was restarted.
Workaround	On each external FSE client, restart the FSE processes using the fse --restartcommand.
	This needs to be done with the above FSE implementations each time after the FSE server or the
	integrated FSE system is restarted.
