System Management and Maintenance

To run iostat on each server

»Go to Maintenance > Troubleshooting Utilities > I/O Stats. The system displays results of the command for each server.

SAR

Use SAR to see a complete system activity report (from the preceding midnight to the current time) for each server.

To run sar on each server

»Go to Maintenance > Troubleshooting Utilities > SAR. The system displays results of the command for each server.

NTP Status

Use NTP Status to see a list of clock sources known to each server (including the local clock) and their status. It runs the command ntpq -pon each server. For detailed information about the output of this command, see:

To run ntpq -p on each server

»Go to Maintenance > Troubleshooting Utilities > NTP Status. The system displays results of the command for each server.

Check Configuration Synchronization

Use Check Configuration Synchronization to find if there are any parts of the system configuration not correctly synchronized across all servers in the supercluster, and automatically repair the problems.

When you make configuration changes to the RealPresence DMA system, they are first stored locally on one of the servers in the supercluster, and synchronized soon after with the other servers. There are circumstances (usually due to network outages) where the local server can lose synchronization and the configuration becomes inconsistent between servers in the supercluster. This feature can detect and repair these inconsistencies.

When configuration synchronization checking is complete, the system stores the output from the analysis and repair in the configsynccheck-<date>.logfile, which you can download as part of the active and archived system logs.

Caution: May temporarily increase system load

This operation may take several minutes and may consume significant memory and CPU resources. Polycom recommends against invoking this utility during peak traffic periods or while other resource intensive tasks are underway (such as system backups, CDR downloads, or Microsoft Active Directory integration updates).
