Reviewing Stdout and Stderr Files

Oracle Tuxedo creates multiple stdout and stderr files when PeopleSoft domains are booted.

When you boot application server and Process Scheduler domains, Oracle Tuxedo generates stdout and stderr files for each server process. The files are located in the LOGS directory for the application server domain (<PS_CFG_HOME>/appserv/<domain>/LOGS) or Process Scheduler domain (<PS_CFG_HOME>/appserv/prcs/<domain>/LOGS).

The files names include the Oracle Tuxedo server ID (SRVID) and process ID (PROCID), in the format stdout_SRVID.PROCID and stderr_SRVID.PROCID. There will be one unique set of files for each process. You can use the files to narrow down the server and process when troubleshooting. Information about server IDs is available in the TUXLOG.* files, which are found in the same LOGS directory. For example, in this sample from a TUXLOG file, the SRVID is 2.

215.53.sample!BBL.610.399.0: LIBTUX_CAT:541: WARN: Server APPSRV/2 terminated
215.56.sample!BBL.610.399.0: LIBTUX_CAT:557: INFO: Server APPSRV/2 being restarted

These files are generated each time a domain is booted. Review the files after each reboot, and either back them up or delete them.
