SAPOSCOL is not running

1045 Views

Hi All,

we have installed BI and SRM Development servers on the same host. OS is AIX and Database is DB2. saposcol information is:

This is Saposcol Version COLL 20.95 700 - AIX v11.00 5L-64 bit 070920

Usage: saposcol -l: Start OS Collector

saposcol -k: Stop OS Collector

saposcol -d: OS Collector Dialog Mode

saposcol -s: OS Collector Status

The OS Collector (PID 970792) is already running .....

when I check the SAP OS collector staus from SAP level using OS06 it is showing that collector is running.

when I login to OS level with <sid>adm, and issued the command saposcol -s. it its showing one process id and status is "running". I tried to stop the collector using saposcol -k. i am getting the following:

-


Setting Stop Flag :

09:37:52 24.02.2009 LOG: ==== Stop Flag was set by saposcol (kill_collector()).

09:37:52 24.02.2009 LOG: ==== The collection process will stop as soon as possible

********************

can't kill process 970792.

kill: No such process

ERROR:No reaction from collecting process 970792.

Please kill collecting process.

-


when I tried to kill the process using kill -9 970792. i am getting the following:

970792: The process does not exist.

...................

please help me how to start the collector again. (please do not ask me to upgrade the saposcol version as it is opposed by team)

Thanks in advance
