Server Monitor and servermgr_xserve retain count in system.log

We've got 4 Xserves G5s on 10.5.4 all exhibiting this behavior. As soon as we open Server Monitor, we get this message in the log files repeatedly:
Jul 3 10:28:46 krusty servermgrd[55]: --Module servermgr_xserve's response has retain count of 1.
Jul 3 10:29:16: --- last message repeated 2 times ---
It doesn't seem to have any impact on the performance or the server stability so I just ignore it, but I don't want to miss something important if it gets lost in all of these seemingly unimportant messages. Has anyone seen similar behavior and know of a way to stop this logging (short of closing Server Monitor)?

Did you set up this Xserve as it came from Apple, or did you take an existing 10.5.x image and lay it onto the Xserve? The latter may not have the relevant components in the image... hwmond is an Xserve-only component.

  • CF8 cfthread, server monitor, and active threads

    When I run this code:
    cfthread
    part III or any cfthread without a thread join and then go to
    the CF Administrator -> Server Monitor -> Statistics ->
    Active ColdFusion Threads, I don't see the threads ever going away.
    They just build and build everytime I run it. I can get it to
    go all the way up to 400+ threads and stay there untill I restart
    Jrun. I think this is a monitor issue because I'd hate to think
    those threads are tied up and still active.
    Thoughts?

    Neo,
    I have noticed the same thing. Now for the odd part. If you
    click the 'start monitoring' button and then run your thread test,
    the threads don't appear in the Active Coldfusion Thread report!
    When running our application, I noticed the Coldfusion thread
    count getting up to 80,000+ threads in the span of a couple of
    hours. If we can't figure out what is causing this, we are going to
    downgrade back to CF7

  • Please clarify license about server managed and configuration manager client ML system center 2012

    Could clarify why managed servers License required ,already we bought the configuration manager client ML License ? We are planing to buy system center operation manager 2012

    Hello,
    if you wants planing to Monitoring your AD with Exchange Server and you have only one physical Server with for example 2 CPUs and 2 VMs, you need to purchase the System Center Standard 2012 R2 SML for Monitoring your Server environement. However,  if
    your AD is a datacenter or for example 4 x Windows Server Standard with 8 VMs than, you need to purchase the System Center datacenter SML.
    the System Center SML is licensed per physical Server: one license up to two physical CPUs. if you have for 2 physical Hosts with 2 CPUs each, you need to purchase two System Center licenses.
    the only difference between Standard and datacenter is only about virtualization rights
    for System Center Operation Manager for your Clients Desktop, you need to purchase the System Center Client Management Suite includes: Operation Manager; Services Manager; Data Protection Manager and Orchestrator.

  • How to monitor and tune DB2 based SAP system?

    For Oracle performance, we have following ways to
    Monitor : st02, st03n, st06, st05
    tune:  update analyzer, update statistics, buffer read-only tables, add buffer size
    For DB2, do we use the same method OR there are some more methods?
    Thanks a lot!

    As user db2<sid>, connect to the database
    db2 connect to <sid>
    Enable auto runstats
    db2 update db cfg for <sid> using AUTO_RUNSTATS on AUTO_STMT_STATS on immediate
    db2 commit

  • Problems with server monitor

    Hi all,
    2 days ago, I cant connect to my xserve via Server Monitor ... and I dont know why. Via server admin I dont have any problem. The message is the following:
    "Waiting for response" ....
    I see the following web:
    http://www.afp548.com/article.php?story=20070211101829496&query=lights%2Bout%2Bm anagement
    Is useful this command?
    Is there any manner to restart the LOM Interface without power off the xserve?

    I've seen that happen once or twice, when the Xserve LOM got confused and/or the daemon became confused.
    In the immortal words of the IT Crowd — "Have You Tried Turning It Off And On Again?"   I've cleared that by shutting down Xserve entirely, removing grid power for 30+ seconds — it's that power removal which triggers the complete LOM reset, the physical disconnection of Xserve from the grid power — and then re-connecting and re-powering and rebooting the Xserve.  If Xserve isn't physically disconnected from grid power, the LOM retains power.
    Here are the LOM setup details.  There are a couple of related threads around, as well; here's one.
    You may alread be aware of this, but if you're using Server Monitor directly from the local Xserve system, you must use the local connection path and not the network path, too.

  • Server monitor : my turn

    Like other people, i would like to manage my xserve remotely (like the advertisement promise).
    ===
    configuration :
    * xserve 1.1
    * os server 10.4.10 (8R2218b)
    * LOM Revision 1.2.7
    * only one ethernet port used,
    * in the etc/hostconfig, the hostname is -AUTOMATIC-
    * i did not configure the LOM initially (because i did'nt ask for a specific ip adress dedicated for LOM at this time). My provider gave me then a specific adress for LOM on the same subnet.
    * dns and reverse dns for the server and LOM are configured by the provider and work fine,
    * I configured the LOM like 'defor' advised in his Aug 22, 2007 post in
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=940740&tstart=0
    * I did shutdown/disconnect/reconnect power/power on.
    ===
    Problems are :
    1) malfunction of server monitor localy (via vnc)
    Server Monitor shows Name = localhost, IP=127.0.01 : is it ok ? .
    It gives informations about the hardware but :
    = i cannot write email adresses into the "edit notification panel". The "Add" button remains grey.
    = the "restart button" doesn't work... "Failed to contact server".
    2) no remote server monitor.
    From my Mac book Pro (localized French)
    I notice that in the list : 'Nom' is empty and 'Adress IP' is correct (writing the IP or the name) and the status remains 'Attente de reponse'
    3) ipmitool
    ipmitool -U [myLOMadminaccount] -H [LOMIP] chassis power status
    ask for password,
    wait 3 seconds and return nothing (the prompt)...the same for others commands
    but "sudo ipmitool -v -v user list 1" gives well the 2 accounts (1 ADMINISTRATOR, 1 USER)
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Happy news from my system :
    I went to the data center yesterday to try different configurations of LOM but first applied the Xserve Firmware Update 1.0.
    A "power off/disconnect power cord (and ethernet cable, why, not ?) dance " and bingo :
    1) Server monitor on my MacBook connects to the xserve,
    2) I can add an email notification,
    3) i can restart the xserve from my laptop.
    But... it's not complete...
    The history log shows (translating from french) every x minutes : three times 'unable to contact the server' then 'connection lost' then, after few seconds the update time is refreshed as the elapse live time of the xserve in the "infos" panel :
    Is-it a real update or a fake ?
    To be sure (silly question ?), is it possible to simulate a xserve problem in the scope of server monitor (and test the notification by email) ?
    Admin server has the same problem : connection lost after x minutes

  • Server Monitoring Feature Unavailable - CF10 Standard

    Hi,
    We have recently undergone the process of installing ColdFusion 10 Standard on our new server, and were looking to test performance across the two.
    Within the ColdFusion Administrator, Server Monitoring>Settings and Server Monitoring>Server Monitor, I receive the message, "This feature is not available in this edition of the ColdFusion server.
    Under System Information the version is listed as 10.0.11.285437 and up to date. The server itself is running Windows Server 2008 R2.
    This was the original article to configure server monitoring.
    However I then ended up with another article, which involved editing neo-monitoring.xml (linked in previous), which did not appear to do anything.
    If someone can shed some light on why I am getting this error, as it says the standard version only limits use of the monitoring API, that would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Hi Scott,
    You need Enterprise or Developer edition to run CF Server Monitor.
    You could try Java JVM logging or JMX style monitoring that is freely available in Java which CF Standard and Enterprise runs on to get some performance metrics.
    HTH, Carl.

  • XServe + Server Monitor = "Waiting for response"

    I have 5 Xserves. All are running 10.4.6 Server. One of them I am able to connect to via Server Monitor. I have done a bit of searching the forums and can't find anyone with a similar problem. What can I look for to start troubleshooting this?
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the response.
    XServes are on different subnets. The one I am able to connect with I can connect with no matter what subnet I am on. I cannot talk with any of the others regardless of which subnet I am on.
    Admin tools are a fresh installation (recently reinstalled system) MacBook Pro, fully updated.
    I am trying to connect to the servers via >server>add server and entering their IP addresses in. I can connect to the servers via Remote Desktop, as well as with AFP shares. The servers are working correctly, with the exception of my inability to use the Server Monitor.
    I also cannot seem to use the Server monitor locally on the machine. If I run Server Monitor and try to connect to the server via 127.0.0.1 or via it's internal IP address, I get the same "Waiting for response" message.

  • Server Monitor won't connect.

    I have a G5 xServe I have recently become responsible for. It is headless, and I haven't admined a headless one and trying to resist the temptation to put a graphics card in it. Right now I'm having the "Waiting for Response" issue with Server Monitor. I can receive the System Profiler Report but no other info is being returned. Any ideas how to fix this?
    Also, wondering if the Shutdown & Restart buttons (in Server Monitor) will work. They are not greyed out but I have no confidence they will work when I need them. Assuming they do not, what would be the best alternative way to Shutdown the server?
    Thanks!

    Hi
    You can use Server Monitor to control the XServe remotely but only if its an Intel XServe and if LOM (Lights Out Management) has been configured for use.
    I kind of agree with what you are saying but my experience has been in previous incarnations of the XServe you could ran Server Monitor locally. You get the "Waiting for Response" message if you use its fixed IP address either locally or remotely. The method outlined in the previous post is the way to connect to it that I have found works. Perhaps somebody else knows different? Although searching the discussion forums will probably result in the same information already given.
    As a further note: you can’t use Server Monitor on anything other than an XServe. People have posted before (and no doubt will continue to do so) complaining that Server Monitor is not working when their Server hardware is anything other than an XServe.

  • HOW TO: Relay/Send email from websites, Server Monitor in OS 10.5 Server

    If you don't want to run your own mail server or configure DNS on your Xserve, but you still want your website or applications like Server Monitor to send email notifications; this is what you need to do:
    Scenario: Mac OS 10.5.2 Leopard - Advanced Configuration - Setup is for strictly sending emails through SMTP, routed through your ISP or another provider. This is not for receiving emails.
    -Open up Server Admin
    If you have yet to add in a server to admin, you need to do so. Resource PDFs on setting up OS X Server are available at Apple http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/ and there are video tutorials at http://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/modPage.asp?ID=373
    -Click on your server, then choose the Settings button
    -Then choose Services from the Tabs/Buttons below
    -Select the Mail checkbox and then hit Save
    -Now choose the newly added Mail service in the left pane, then click the Settings button up top
    -Start with the Advanced tab. Under Security, un-check everything and don't use SSL unless you want to. You don't need to mess with the other sub-tabs here.
    -Next choose the Logging Tab. Under SMTP log level, choose debug so you will be able to see what goes on in the log.
    -Mailing List, Quotas and Filters tabs can go untouched. You can mess with them later if you want.
    -Click the Relay tab. It is a good idea to only accept relays from your local machine. If you uncheck this, I believe it leaves you with an open relay that anybody can access.
    -Now for the General Tab. Under Domain Name put anything you want. Any made up name and extension is fine.
    Under Host Name, again put anything you want.
    Un-check Enable POP, Un-check Enable IMAP - Basically un-check everything
    Check or leave checked Enable SMTP
    Now check Relay outgoing mail through host:
    Then enter your hosts SMTP server. ex. smtpout.secureserver.net
    Now check Authenticate to relay with user name: and enter your username and password
    -Now hit the Save button
    -Now we need to take a look at the main.cf file and add a few things
    -If you aren't showing all files in Finder already, open up Terminal.app
    Now type in: defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles True
    Hit enter
    Now type in: killall Finder
    Now Finder should reset and all files should be visible - To hide all files, do the same thing but type False
    -Now open Macintosh HD and navigate to /private/etc/postfix/main.cf (Note: you won't be able to open and edit this in TextEdit. I recommend a program like TextWrangler http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/download.shtml )
    -Once you have main.cf open, all your settings should be together at the bottom of the doc. Scroll down. You will need to add in a few lines and verify all the settings are exactly as below (except of course your own names and SMTP server):
    readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix
    mydomain_fallback = anything.anyting
    messagesizelimit = 0
    myhostname = anything.anything
    mailbox_transport = cyrus
    mydomain = anything.anything
    mailboxsizelimit = 0
    enableserveroptions = yes
    inet_interfaces = all
    relayhost = smtpout.secureserver.net
    smtpsasl_passwordmaps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl/passwd
    smtpsasl_authenable = yes
    smtpdsasl_authenable = no
    smtpsasl_securityoptions =
    smtpduse_pwserver = no
    smtpdrecipientrestrictions = permitmynetworks,reject_unauthdestination,permit
    smtpdpw_server_securityoptions = none
    -Now save the main.cf document
    -Now go back to Macintosh HD and navigate to /private/etc/postfix/sasl/passwd
    Open passwd with TextWrangler or you editing app, and verify that your SMTP server, username and password are correct. It should look something like this:
    smtpout.secureserver.net [email protected]:password
    -This should be what you entered in Server Admin when you first started. If all is well, quit your editing app.
    -Now, while you are still at /private/etc/postfix/sasl/passwd you need to edit permissions for passwd
    You can chmod in Terminal.app or secondary click on passwd and "Get Info"
    Click the lock and enter your password to unlock the settings
    Next click the + button and add yourself and Admin
    -Now you can close out of everything and go back to Server Admin
    -Hit the Reload (twisty arrow) button at the bottom and once everything is reloaded, hit Start Mail
    -Now type localhost in your browser to see if your website can send email. You can also open up other apps such as Server Monitor and do something to change the status to have it send an email.
    -You can click on Mail in the Server Admin and then view the SMTP log. As long as emails are being sent and then removed from the queue, you are in good shape. If you are getting an SASL error or mechanism error, open up main.cf and verify your settings and/or check permissions on passwd file

    Don't you need the Mail service running to have apps like Server Monitor send email notifications? - Also for hosted sites that use the sendmail function you need a service running to get the emails sent.
    Really you are not hosting a Mail server. It is open, but there is no incoming and if you only accept SMTP relays from the local machine, there should be no issues.

  • Server Monitor Buttons Missing

    The Monitoring, Profiling and Memory Tracking buttons are all missing from the Server Monitor and it is not displaying any data. Where did they go? I'm on CF9/Multi-server and Windows Server 2008/64 bit. My CF server instances are running under a domain account so they can get to network shares. I'm using multiple jvm.config files to give some servers more memory than others. I've tried adding the domain account to the Administrators group, made sure monitoring, profiling and memory tracking are all enabled, and made sure the crossdomain.xml file is in the webroot.

    Well, first briefly, I've seen this happen (the start/stop buttons don't appear), where simply refreshing the page made them reappear.
    Assuming you've confirmed that doesn't solve it, here are some questions that may help us hone in on the problem:
    - does this happen on all the instances or just one?
    - you say you are on CF9. Do you mean 9 or 9.0.1?
    - Have you applied any hotfixes or cumulative hotfixes? (And I'd ask you to confirm that not from memory but from confirming by looking in the lib\updates directory. On Multiserver, that's \servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib\updates for the cfusion instance, or \servers\instancename\cfusion.ear\cfusion.war\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib\updates for any others (note change from - to . in the ear/war directory names).
    - Are the hotfixes there the right ones for the version you're running (not 900 in the filenames if you're running 9.01, or vice-versa)
    - When you say it's "not displaying any data", do you mean that the graphs on the front page are essentially blank? That would mean simply that "start monitoring" has not yet been enabled. When you say "no data", I'd want to make sure you don't mean that none of the screens show anything. There are many that show data even if there are none of the "start" buttons enabled, such as the Template Cache Status page (on the Statistics tab, in the "Request Statistics" section). Is that "displaying data"? Just trying to help clarify your situation.
    Also, just as a workaround until you do solve this, note that if you're on 9.01, you can now at least turn the buttons on and off in the CF Admin, something that's gone under the radar for many, it seems.
    Hope that's helpful.

  • Server Monitor says "CANNOT_LOAD_BUNDLE_ERR"

    Hi all,
    Any server admin around?
    On my freshly installed 10.7.3 Server I can't get the "Server Monitor" runing properly.
    It doesn't show any information (except of IP and log) while Server Admin and Workgroupmanager are working fine.
    Log says "Failed to contact server" in both cases, runin' on the server itself and runin' remote on a management client.
    Any suggestions welcome
    TIA

    I'm having the same problem.  Were you able to fix it?
    Thanks

  • Server Monitor "Waiting for response" Forever! But localhost is OK

    I am having trouble getting Server Monitor running on my MacBook to connect to our new Intel Xserve. Feeding it either the IP address or the host name gets the same message: "Waiting for response" and nothing more. I have no trouble a t all access the same server using Server Admin on the same MacBook. So it ddoes not seem to be a DNS issue or even an ethernet issue. I am not running any firewires (that I know of either). This is a brand new server and I have never even started most services yet, just hooked it up to an Xraid. I also have (4) ethernet ports. But I get the same results by plugging the WAN into either of the ports. Is there a bug with Server Monitor and the Intel Xserves?

    Well the MAC addresses of my LOM's seem to be sequential to the two builtin ethernet ports. Assign each LOM an IP number. Then, on another computer, try to change it's IP to the same thing as the LOM. You should get an error message saying that the IP # is already in use by aonther MAC address. You guessed it, that Other MAC address should be the LOM. This is how I found out mine. The 1 port ended with a 4, the 2 port ended with a 5, the LOM 1 ended with a 6 and the LOM 2 ended with a 7.
    HOWEVER, after days of messing with this stuff, I have not gotten the LOM to work. Tried all the tricks too, even the ones Apple won't tell you like unplugging the whole computer for 30 seconds and stuff. After all that messing around I have somehow damaged the servers ability to work with Apple Remote Desktop. The server appears in the list fine, but when you try to access it, ARD can never connect. I guess I will have to completely rebuild this server on Monday. It's faster than finding what's corrupt now. I'm not impressed with the Intel servers at all. I hate all this new LOM stuff and I don't like the mounting hardware either. I think they took a step backwards this time. Stop trying to make Sun servers. If I wanted a Sun, I'd buy a Sun. I want an Apple, because it's easy to use. At least they WERE easy to use. Anybody want to trade a dual Intel 3.0 for a dual G5???? I'm giving up on the LOM thing now. I will just use ARD to run Server Monitor on the machine as local. This is the only way to get info on the INtel serverrs it seems. Bummer. Silly that I trust my G4 Xserver much more than the Intel.
