Re: 'getpars' and ' but I have over 20 overloaded cp's on a single node and

DO NOT use getpars on an "overloaded" CP. It will increase the load on the
CPs.


Re: What would I do?

I'd use the tools in the 'cpUtil'. These tools read workfiles and the CP is
never bothered. It is available on the Cassandra web-site.

The tool you want is 'refs'

        1. You may want to look at the getpars utility, located in
        /opt/fox/bin/tools.  It can list the parameters you are looking for.
You
        can get information on how to use getpars in the getpars.man page.
You can
        even use wildcards for the CP name.  Unlike the iccapi (iccprt and
        iccdrvr.tsk), getpars works even if the control configurator is
open.

        2. I do not think that the iccdrvr.tsk will allow wildcards for
opening a
        CP, but you can build a simple unix script to automatically call the
iccprt
        utility for each CP.

        Hope this helps!

                Does anyone have or know of a way to retrieve the Compound
name, Block name
        and Block type.  I can do it using the iccdrvr.tsk but I have over
20
        overloaded
                cp's on a single node and 3 similar nodes.   Is there a way
to use a wild
        card in iccdrvr.tsk for the cp name?
                Thanks,
