Check stored Processes

The stored function performs a variety of important tasks such as deadlock and transaction operations of the message database, enforcing aging policies, and expunging and erasing messages stored on disk. If stored stops running, Messaging Server will eventually run into problems. If stored doesn’t start when start-msg is run, no other processes will start.

Check that the stored process is running. Run stored -t -v
Check for the log file build up in store_root/mboxlist.
Check for stored messages in the default log file msg_svr_base/log/default/default
Check that the time stamps of the following files (in directory msg_svr_base/config/) are updated whenever one of the following functions are attempted by the stored process:

Table 18–14 stored Operations


stored Operation	Function
`stored.ckp`	Touched when a database checkpoint was initiated. Stamped approximately every 1 minute.
`stored.lcu`	Touched at every database log cleanup. Time stamped approximately every 5 minutes.
`stored.per`	Touched at every spawn of peruser db write out. Time stamped once an hour.
