Check setup
The check setup tool checks your CLC Server is set up correctly. It runs automatically each time an administrative user logs into the web administrative interface. It can also be run on demand by clicking on the check setup link in the top right hand corner of the web interface and then clicking on the Generate Diagnostics Report button in the window that appears.
If issues are found, a red band and a warning message with a red background will be visible (figure 19.1). Clicking on the warning message at the top right opens a diagnostic report, where details of the problems can be found (figure 19.2). When the tool is run on demand, the diagnostic report will be displayed whether or not problems are found.
In the report, any tests where problems are identified are marked with a red exclamation mark. A green check mark is placed beside tests that passed. Click on any of the test names to see further information.
Indications of some problems are also given in the relevant area of the web interface. Examples are shown in the figures in this section.
Figure 19.1: If issues with the server configuration have been found, a red band and warning message is presented. Click on the warning message to open the diagnostic report. The red icon beside the first file system location also provides a signal that there is a problem.
Figure 19.2: Tests that passed are marked with a green check mark. Tests that failed are marked with a red exclamation mark. Here, a problem with the setup of import/export directories has been found. Such an issue is also indicated in the relevant configuration area, as seen in the background here.
Additional notes:
- A green check mark is presented beside "List license files" when the contents of the "licenses" folder in the installation area of the CLC Server can be listed. Click on this item to see a list of the licenses found and the products and versions supported by those licenses found are reported. Information about expired licenses is also presented. See figure 19.3.
- The "Data location indexing" section contains a list of the enabled file system locations and the number of files indexed.
- On a job node setup, if there are communication issues between the job nodes and the master node, the status will indicate there is a problem.
- The message "No data locations indexed" indicates that either no locations have been configured, or that all configured locations have been disabled.
- If the number of files looks lower than expected, this can suggest that a file system location should be re-indexed.
Rebuilding indexes is described in rebuilding the index.
- A green check mark is presented beside "Grid setup status" in two cases:
- You have configured a grid setup and it is configured correctly.
- You have not configured a grid setup.
Figure 19.3: Click on the List license files item in the report to see the list of the license files found in the licenses subfolder of the installation area. Products and versions supported are reported, and any expired license is noted with red text.
