5.2 Guidelines for NFS file systems
If the UseUnixLocks=1 entry has been set in the Registry, Advanced Server for UNIX
executes record locks in all file systems, including the NFS file system. The def ault is
UseUnixLocks=0, UseNfsLocks=0, NfsCheck=0.
Overview:
●The i ncorrect locks can cause processes to hang in systems that have not
configured a lock manager. These processes cannot be terminated with kill -9;
in this case the system must be restarted.
●In this case, set the entries NfsCheck=1 and UseNfsLocks=0.
5.3 Connecting Advanced Server for UNIX to Logging
Advanced Server for UNIX has an interface to Logging. If users wish to use Logging it must
be installed and started on the server system.
ÊCheck whether the log files log3admin and log3struct (for Logging V3.0) contain entries
for Advanced Server for UNIX. If necessary, incorporate them using an editor.
ÊAfter you have entered it using the editor, invoke the log3/bin/log3adm and log3/log3new
commands. In this way, the entries are incorporated from log3admin to log3admin.obj.
Parameter Parameter Comments
UseNfsLocks=1 The lock or unlock command is always executed,
an error message may be passed on to the appli-
cation. The NfsCheck= parameter is ignored.
UseNfsLocks=0 NfsCheck=0 The lock or unlock command is always executed,
if an error message appears, it is acknowledged
positively.
UseNfsLocks=0 NfsCheck=1 The lock or unlock command is only executed if the
file is not contained in the NFS file system. If the
file is contained in the NFS file system, the
