Failed to connect JobMonApp on port

[zapal]

Hi,

Get an error message "Failed to connect JobMonApp on port number of ports".

I find this port number in a file which name is "jobmon_ports".

The job finish correctly with a status "Finished (see log)". I can open the monitor but there is no information.

Get anybody idea ?

Thanks

JobMonApp collects all the monitor info. So if JobMonApp is not running you will get no monitor info ...

Have you tried restarting DataStage services / Unix server as JobMonApp should be started automatically when DataStage is started up.

Pls note the following for JobMonAPP (Job Monitor):

1) JobMonAPP runs on the ports listed in the following file:

/ascential/apt/QX/etc/jobmon_ports

2) JobMonAPP can be started/stopped using the following command:

/ascential/apt/QX/java/jobmoninit

Usage: ./jobmoninit [ start | stop ] [APT_ORCHHOME VALUE]

For 6 version
it is present at
/apps/dsadm/Ascential/DataStage/PXEngine/java

Hi I'm having the same problem in HP UX. But this method did not start the jobmonapp and I still get the warning "Failed to connect to JobMonApp on port 13401".
I tried rebooting the server as well as the DataStage services.
Any ideas?

Did JobMonApp give you an error when you tried to start it?

What version of DS are you running?

Hi

i am using version 7.1, I am also facing this kind of problem.

JobMonApp comes down suddenly after running for some days, say 2 Days. This kind of problem is recurring.

I am not sure why it is happening.

Can i have some of the possible reasons for it.
The ports specified in jobmon_ports are
APT_JOBMON_PORT1=13400
APT_JOBMON_PORT2=13401

There may be other programs on your server that have been attempting to use port 13400 and 13401. Call your SysAdmin and tell him to stop it.

WHen I am trying to run this :

./jobmoninit start APT_ORCHHOME

I am getting the following error :

$./jobmoninit start $APT_ORCHHOME
A second argument must be supplied to this script when APT_ORCHHOME is not set in your environment.Directory /java does not exist.

I think APT_ORCHHOME parameter is not properly supplied by me ..Can you please elaborate on how to find this parm.

I just discovered that there was a nasty bug within JobMonApp. If your job crash hard (i.e. "Error on line 10234 of file yousucks.h"), your JobMonApp may go down with it.

Fortunately, this bug was fixed for 7.5.

[ray.wurlod]

I can't find the file yousucks.h on my installation, and find it almost inconceivable that an error message would be reported on a header file, or even that a header file would contain more than 10000 lines.

[T42]

Yeah. That's why it's called yousucks.h, Ray.
