"-apptrc" - option on gwrd process

[Former Member]

Hi,

when we kill the gateway process on os-level, the gwrd process do a restart with the option "-apptrc".

Know anybody anything about this option ...??? - i can't find anything ...:-(

xyzadm 22000 21841 0 Oct 28 ? 8:58 gwrd pf=/usr/sap/XYZ/SYS/profile/XYZ_DVEBMGS85_YXZ12345

.

.

kill 22000

.

xyzadm 19011 21841 0 Oct 28 ? 8:58 gwrd -apptrc pf=/usr/sap/XYZ/SYS/profile/XYZ_DVEBMGS85_YXZ12345

Hi Markus

You should not kill your gw

But if you do, then the gwrd process is automatically restarted by the dispatcher process. The -apptrc option does append the trace output to the actual file dev_rd. Without the option the dev_rd is moved to dev_rd.old and a new file is created.

However i cannot explain why the -help option lists it as -appctrc. -appctrc doesn't seem to exist at all.

sidadm> gwrd -help
call gwrd with following parameters:

 pf=<profile> : Specify Name of parameter file
 [-dp]        : Internal connect to R/3 dispatcher
 [-appctrc]   : Append trace files
 [-force]     : Force start up
 [-a]         : Attach to existing shared memory
 [-help]      : Print argument help
 [-V]         : Print release

Best regards
