Operating Systems Linux Administrator responsibilities, in case of power outage? Post 302490371 by TECK on Monday 24th of January 2011 04:47:14 PM
Old 01-24-2011
Once the electricity issues are dealt with, what would you do next? Presuming that you reboot several boxes and they simply refuse to start properly the services, deadlocks etc. I'm trying to also find out how I should deal with a situation where several essential boxes cannot be started for X reasons.

I presume I could investigate why the services don't start, starting with disks checkup and ending with data integrity (i.e. service reinstall, database restore, etc.)?

NAME
unlog - Discards all of the issuer's tokens SYNOPSIS
unlog [-cell <cell name>+] [-help] unlog [-c <cell name>+] [-h] DESCRIPTION
The unlog command by default discards all tokens that the issuer currently holds. To discard tokens for certain cells only, name them with the -cell argument. Since a token pertains to one client machine only, destroying tokens on one machine has no effect on tokens on another machine. CAUTIONS
Specifying one or more cell names can cause a brief authentication outage during which the issuer has no valid tokens in any cell. This is because the command actually discards all tokens and then restores the ones for cells not named by the -cell argument. The outage can sometimes interrupt the operation of jobs that require authentication. OPTIONS
-cell <cell name>+ Specifies each cell for to discard the token. If this argument is omitted, the Cache Manager discards all tokens. Provide the fully qualified domain name, or a shortened form, in which case successful resolution depends on the availability of a name resolution service (such as the Domain Name Service or a local host table) at the time the command is issued. -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. EXAMPLES
The following command discards all tokens. % unlog The following command discards only the tokens for the "abc.com" and "stateu.edu" cells. % unlog -cell abc.com stateu PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
