Hi Stefan, You don't need to configure Servermon, at least not the built-in version included at 8.1.7 and above.
It's your choice to run it or not and you can also use "setopt alwaysonservermon off" to stop it. However, I'd recommend you address the warning rather than stop it altogether instead. I'm not sure if you are familiar with Servermon or not. It started out as a Perl script outside the server, we have been using this for years for data collection for various types of problems from performance to long running issues where we need data captured at frequent intervals to see the progression of a process or session. The idea behind having it running it all the time is that if you open a case with IBM with a problem that occurred yesterday, support will ask for Servermon from that day, instead of waiting for a reoccurrence of the problem. It's even possible that the problem that occurred yesterday really started 2 weeks ago, so they could go back to that point. There will still be some problems that will require additional data capture, but Servermon will often be the starting point. The warning you are seeing appears to be because the Servermon executable has stopped running. Check if there's a Servermon running, if not you can restart it. You can also use "setopt alwaysonservermon off" to stop it, and set it again to ON to start it. - Thanks, Marc... ________________________________________________________ Marc Lanteigne Spectrum Protect Specialist AVP / SRT 416.478.0233 | marclantei...@ca.ibm.com Office Hours: Monday to Friday, 7:00 to 16:00 Eastern Latest Servermon for Spectrum Protect: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21432937 Performance Mustgather for Spectrum Protect: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg22013355 Spectrum Protect Blueprint: https://ibm.biz/BdHc6b Follow me on: Twitter, developerWorks, LinkedIn -----Original Message----- From: Tsm Tsm <t...@profi-ag.de> Sent: Thursday, April 4, 2019 03:35 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] many ANR5024W (servermon) messages in actlog hello, every 10 minutes this message appears in actlog. so we do not want to run servermon or even configure it on our spectrum protect server. i only found alwaysonservermon yes as parameter in dsmserv.opt. so i tested alwaysonservermon no and it seems to work. am i right? with best regards stefan savoric
