Operation of the Fault Monitor Probes

The fault monitors for each BroadVision One-To-One Enterprise resource (root host, back-end host, and Interaction Manager host) monitor the following processes.

• The orbix daemon (orbixd), which is common for all of the BroadVision One-To-One Enterprise resources – The probes use the ps(1) command to ensure that orbixd is functioning. If orbixd is not functioning, the probe considers the failure as complete, and the Resource Group Manager (RGM) restarts the orbix daemon.

  The orbix daemon is started with the checkpoint feature. Therefore, the BroadVision One-To-One Enterprise servers, which the previous instance of orbixd started, continue to run with the new instance of orbixd.

• The BroadVision One-To-One Enterprise daemons that you have configured in the resource – If orbixd is healthy, the probe uses the BroadVision command bvconf ps to ensure that the BroadVision One-To-One Enterprise daemons are functioning. If BroadVision One-To-One Enterprise daemons are not functioning, the RGM restarts the resource, which restarts all of the configured daemons.
