Managing the AMASS File System
-4 Troubleshooting Tools 6-00028-01 Rev A
Cancel Outstanding Requests
You can cancel an outstanding READ or WRITE request to the
AMASS file system by using <Control C>, which is the
standard UNIX interrupt signal. This can be used during normal
AMASS operation.
When there has been a fatal error in AMASS, the system
administrator can cancel outstanding requests, gracefully bring
AMASS down, and restart AMASS (run
amass_start)—without rebooting—by using
/usr/amass/tools/killdaemons -f -t seconds, which
brings AMASS down in the specified number of seconds.
Note
As a result of using killdaemons, the system administrator may
notice that flag states (flags, such as A=active, C=volcomped,
I=inactive, K=reserved, O=offline, Q=quick formatted,
U=unformatted) may be affected. For example, a volume might
show a flag state of both “Q” and “U” (formatted and unformatted).
To display the correct flags, you must rerun the AMASS
administrative command that manipulates the flag, for example,
rerun the
volformat command. Internal ADIC testing has found
this to affect the
volformat, volinlet, and voloutlet
commands.
