[Orca-users] Re: setup for monitoring multiple servers - was: problems compiling orca

[dave.pyles at boeing.com]

I have been playing with a server setup - I shared /opt/orca 
and /opt/RICHPse and mounted them from the server. I got 
orcallator.se to start up after a chmod 
777 /opt/orca/var/ora/orcallator/myserver - it then started and wrote 
a myserver.pid file but nothing else. I did a truss and determined 
that it was stuck in a loop:
ioctl(4, KSTAT_IOC_CHAIN_ID, 0x00000000)        = 646
ioctl(4, KSTAT_IOC_READ, "qfe1")                = 646
over and over...
qfe1 is currently unused - part of a trunk that is not currently 
enabled, but will be. There are also other unused qfes. I tried 
editing /opt/orca/lib/orcallator.se and adding a // to #define 
WATCH_NET, with no luck. I would guess the problem is in the 
initialize routine, but I don't want to mess with it. So I'm stuck 
again, back to reading the archives of orca-users. Is there a 
workaround to tell orcallator to ignore unused qfes or something?
