How to find which service is down?

[ajaykumar1]

   Hi All,

   Generally some times any one of the service out of 5 is down and it will up in later automatically.

  How to know which service is failed and up.At failure time i am receiving the mail of some tasks failure mail(so it means its the QMS is ok).

Note :Am working on a cluster environment.

QDS,QSC,QMS are in one server

QV servers are in different servers

1. i) Qlikview Distribution Service [QDS] => Responsible for the reload tasks.
2. ii) Qlikview server => Responsible for Access point Server document
3. iii) Directory Service Connector => For Authentication
4. iv) Qlikview Management Services => It gives the all setting for the all services and responsible for QMC(Qlikview Management Console)

QMC->Status->Services

Green icon means services are up&running, other indicators mean trouble

Thanks Peter.I understand that.

But what i want is.Let me explain.

When we are not in office that time any one of the services has down.So our application from QMC is failed.

When we reached office the earlier failed service is up(Showing in green color) and everything working is fine.

My Question is how we know earlier failed service.

I hope understood requirement.

Thanks,

Ajay

Dear Ajay,

By looking at the logs, you can implement the governance dashboard ( for a simple logs view) that will reload XX amount of times whihc feed from you logs, and from there you can see if a service had some sort of issue, the governance dashboard will display errors or warnings.

I think what you need is an email alert at the Windows level for when any of the QlikView Windows Service are down.  Most IT shops already have some kind of alerting system for its admins that monitor services & systems, I'd suggest to ask your admins what they use.  If not then you can write you own with PowerShell, VB or whatever you prefer.

If you don't have a network monitor in place, or want to establish one just for QV, I use Servers Alive

Server monitoring tools | Monitoring network software

It's free for small implementations.
