- After viewing the logging details from
Console, click Export to File save the log file to the location you want. The carte log file can also be referred from the location <AR serverInstallDirectory>\ARSystem\Arserver\Db.
To troubleshoot issues with starting a job
To trouble shoot issues related to a job not starting in
console, follow the tasks listed in the table:
Verify | Steps |
|---|---|
If Carte is running | You can start a job from the console only if the Carte server is running. For more information, see |
logs | If the Atrium Carte Server is running and if the job is still not starting, see the logs. For more information see, Mid-tier logs. |
ARSYS.ARDBC.PENTAHO plug-in logs | If the log identifies a issue related to the ARSYS.ARDBC.PENTAHO plug-in, see the plug-in logs. For more information, see ARSYS.ARDBC.PENTAHO plug-in logs. |
User permissions to start the job | If the ARSYS.ARDBC.PENTAHO plug-in log identifies a user permission issue, update permissions in the UDM:PermissionInfo form. |
Instance execution status | If there is instance related issues such as a duplicate instance or you are unable to delete an instance, update the UDM:ExecutionInstance form. |
To troubleshoot jobs not displayed on the console
If a job was created successfully in the Atrium Integrator console, but does not appear on the console, consider the following possible causes
- The ARDBC plug-in might not be available on the server on which you installed the
Spoon application.
- Some .jar files might be missing.
- Verify that the user is assigned to one of the following roles:
- AI Admin
- AI User
For more information, see Atrium-Integrator-permissions
To troubleshoot
console issues
- Open the following file:
ARInstallationDirectory\pluginsvr\pluginsvr_config.xml - Ensure that the pluginsvr_config.xml file contains the following entry:
ARSYS.ARDBC.PENTAHO - Ensure that all the .jar files listed in the ARSYS.ARDBC.PENTAHO section exist at the specified locations.
- Open the following file:
ARInstallationDirectory\pluginsvr\log4j_pluginsvr - Search for the com.bmc.arsys.pdi entry and change the value from warn to debug as:
<logger name="com.bmc.arsys.pdi">
<level value="debug">
</logger> - Create another job by using the Atrium Integrator console, and then open the following file to review the debug logs:
ARInstallationDirectory\Arserver\Db\arjavaplugin.log
To rectify corrupted
jobs
Symptom: If during or after an upgrade, you manually change the Pentaho – UDM reference tables data, you may encounter issues, such as an incorrect job summary or the job not starting from the
screen.
Scope: The root cause is the corruption in the data of the following UDM repository forms:
- UDM:Repository:DatabaseType
- UDM:Repository:DatabaseConnType
- UDM:Repository:JobEntryType
- UDM:Repository:StepType
- UDM:Repository:Version
Workaround:
- You must correct the reference data in the above repository forms.
- If Sample jobs or custom jobs are created using the corrupted reference data, you must correct such job definitions.
To troubleshoot incomplete filename path
Symptom: The filename path is not complete in the error logging step named Output CMDB errors .
Scope: Occurs when you run an
job with Delete option selected.
Workaround: Open the Delete transformation through Atrium Integrator Spoon, correct the file path mentioned in the Output CMDB errors step, and run the job again.
