MFT logger status values

The fteShowLoggerDetails commands produce logger status information. There are several possible values for this status.

ACTIVE

The logger is running and is sending or receiving files. The logger is publishing its status at regular intervals. The last update was received within the expected time period.

READY

The logger is running, but is not sending or receiving files. The logger is publishing its status at regular intervals. The last update was received within the expected time period.

STARTING

The logger is starting, but is not yet ready to perform transfers.

UNREACHABLE

Logger status updates were not received at the expected time intervals. The logger might have stopped running due to an error, or have been shut down abruptly, or be running but experiencing communication problems.

STOPPED

The logger has been stopped. It was shut down in a controlled manner.

ENDED UNEXPECTEDLY

The logger has ended unexpectedly. The logger will be automatically restarted, unless there have been more than maxRestartCount restarts within the maxRestartInterval time period and the maxRestartDelay value is less than or equal to 0. For more information about these properties, see MFT logger configuration properties.

For the fteShowLoggerDetails command the details for the this status will include a status code, which is the logger process exit code. See "Process Exit Codes" for a list of known exit codes.

NO_INFORMATION

The logger version might be WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition Version 7.0.2 earlier. The logger is not publishing updates in a form that this command can process.

UNKNOWN

The status of the logger cannot be determined. It might have published a status which is not recognized by this tool. If we have mixed product versions on your network, upgrading the installation version of this tool might fix this problem.

PROBLEM

The logger command handler might not be working. The logger is publishing status messages, but these status messages are out of date.
