Yes..I have seen this before.
Can you login to the Admin tool after the server starts up?

Hello everyone:

I've managed to get through the (incredibly flawed) solaris 10 arsystem 7
install.
This is 7.0.01 patch 2.

I'm using oracle 10G client library with a remote database on an oracle 10
Rapid Application Cluster.

So ... now the server is INCREDIBLY slow to start.

The server is configured to run on a TCP port (10000).
When I issue the 'arsystem start' command, I get the usual output on the
console indicating that the server has started.

However, the TCP port is not listening, and of course, no clients can
connect to the server.


If I wait (approx 7 minutes), I will see the following output on the
console:

  (ARNOTE 0)
   Server indicates that it's up.


 (ARNOTE 0)
   ARMonitor child process (pid:29595) started.
./arplugin

Loaded Web Services plugin properly

After the above, the TCP port opens up and clients can connect, and it
seems to work well enough.

What I presume is happening here is that arserverd must issue some sort of
indication that it's completed start up so that arforkd and armonitor can do
their thing and start listeners and plugins, and that arserverd is for some
reason taking on average 7 minutes to do that.

I can't manage to get ANY sort of logging during the 7 minutes of mystery.
is there some way to figgure out what the heck is going on durring this
period of time (is it timing out DNS? is the db slow to respond? is it
waiting on disk access? what is it doing?).

We have an identical set up in our dev lab, with the exception that the
database server is not a RAC and it's installed on the same machine. The
startup is quite snappy on that setup.

There don't appear to be any issues with network latency between the
remedy server and the RAC.

Anyone ever seen this before?
Any suggestions?

thanks,

Andrew
