Verify instance creation

You can verify the creation of an instance by confirming the creation of instance-specific XML files and logs. Check these files to ensure that the instance was created successfully.

• Confirm that the instance was created.

  • Check configuration information for the new WCS instance.

    WC_PROFILE/installedApps/WC_instance_cell/WC_instance/xml/config/wc-server.xml

  • Check instance log files:

    • WC_INSTALL/instances/instance/logs

    • WC_USER/instances/instance/logs

• If you are using IBM HTTP Server Web server, the following log file is produced during instance creation:

  • WC_INSTALL/instances/instance/httplogs/error_log

  • WC_INSTALL/instances/instance/httplogs/error.log

  This file is not created until you start IBM HTTP Server.

• Verify there are no errors in the following log files:

  • createInstanceANT.err.log

  • createInstanceANT.log

  • createdb.db2.log

  • messages.txt

  • trace.txt

  • Schema.log

  • sec_check.log

    The sec_check.log file is created when the instance is started.

• The following log files are created:

  • WC_INSTALL/logs/WCSconfig.log

  • WC_USER/logs/WCSconfig.log

  • WC_INSTALL/logs/reorgdb2.err.log

  Errors in the trace.txt file like the following example can be safely ignored:

  date time java.lang.Class resolveRecord IdResGen
  The element with key "<acaction ACACTION_ID=10043
      ACTION=BuyOrderApprovalSummaryView>" already exists
      in the database therefore this record will not be updated.
