Data collection and symptom analysis

Run the collector...

    cd WP_PROFILE/PortalServer/bin/
    ./wpcollector.sh

FTP the results to IBM..

    wpcollector.sh -Dpmr=pmr_number

For example...

    wpcollector.sh -Dpmr=12345.xxx.000

To collect files for the dmgr profile...

    -Ddmgr.root=dmgr_root

...either alone or with -Dpmr=pmr_number

Extraction of wp.mustgather.zip may fail if path name exceeds the 256 character limitation.

If the configuration wizard failed before it created the instance...

    wp_profile/ConfigEngine

...run...

    cd APPSERVER_ROOT/profiles/cw_profile/ConfigEngine
    ./ConfigEngine.sh collect-cw-logs -DPortalBinaryLocation=/usr/IBM/WebSphere/PortalServer -DWasPassword=foo

The logs are compressed and placed into...

    APPSERVER_ROOT/profiles/cw_profile/filesForAutoPD

The collect-cw-logs script can automatically FTP the logs to IBM so that we do not need to manually transfer them. To collect and FTP the results to IBM, use the -Dpmr=pmr_number parameter to identify the collection with the information. Format the number either with periods or commas.

If the collect-cw-logs task fails, run the stopserver server1 command from...

    APPSERVER_ROOT/profiles/cw_profile/bin

Then, rerun the collect-cw-logs task.

To manually FTP the results, locate cw.mustgather.zip or pmr-cw.mustgather-timestamp.zip in...

    APPSERVER_ROOT/profiles/cw_profile/filesForAutoPD
