I commented out REMEDY.ARF.CAI plugin (libcaieventcmd.so) in ar.conf and
the arplugin still crashed every 90 seconds.  I went on to try each
plugin one by one in ar.conf and found out the cause of the problem:
ardbcQuery (libardbcQuery.so).  The plugin is used to query the overview
console and return data from the vendor form for Incident, Problem,
Change and Asset.  The BMC support sent me a patch file to replace the
plugin but it couldn't be loaded during startup. In arerror.log, this is
shown: 

 

Wed Jan 30 15:31:34 2008  390695 : The plug-in does not implement
ARPluginIdentify().  The plug-in will not load. (ARERR 8759)

Wed Jan 30 15:31:34 2008
/opt/remedy/arsystem/remedydev/incident/bin/libardbcQuery.so

 

While the BMC support is escalating the problem to resolution team, I
also found another problem with the application dispatcher when arplugin
is not dying:  arsvcdsp dies with 65280 every 30 minutes.  Has any one
seen this before?

 

Thanks.

 

Eric
