Looking for some expertise on using this little gadget. I have been experimenting with using arsignal -r to recache the servers in our server group, as an alternate to restarting the ar system service on all the servers. I'm thinking this will reduce the impact to the end users. However, in my tests, executing this command hangs the server for about 10 minutes. Is this normal? Because for that matter, might as well just restart the service. Is there any advantace to using arsignal instead of a restart.
Also, the documentation says to execute as follows arsignal -r <server_name> where server_name is the name of the server that is to reload the information, and that you can execute from any server. So, I figure I can execute it from the admin server, once for each server. But I find that this does not work, that I have to go to each server, and execute it from there. Is that correct? ARS 7.1 Thanks, .ron _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug11 www.wwrug.com ARSList: "Where the Answers Are"
