Setting the GST troubleshoot environment variable on UNIX

Use a borne shell script to put the gstd daemon in troubleshoot mode.

  1. Modify the file permissions for the gst startup file. By default, the file is a read-only file.

    The file location varies depending on the operating system:

    • Solaris and Linux: /etc/init.d/gst
    • AIX: /etc/rc.gst
  2. Edit the file and specify the following at beginning of the file:
    GST_DEBUG=x
    export GST_DEBUG
    where x is a number between 1 and 20.
  3. Stop, and then restart the gstd daemon:
    • Solaris and Linux: Type:

      /etc/init.d/gst stop

      then

      /etc/init.d/gst start

    • AIX: Type:

      /etc/rc.gst start

      then

      /etc/rc.gst stop

NMC stores the troubleshoot information in the gstd.raw file.

After you capture the troubleshoot information, stop the gstd daemon, remove the environment variable from the startup file, and then restart the gstd daemon.
