AW: [development-axapta] AX4.0 how to know batch process is running

2010-05-31 Thread jesper.joergensen
Hi James,

We are solving that problem for a customer at the moment.

You could check if the batch user is logged on to the SQL server, only that 
will not give you the answer you are looking for. The user can be logged on, 
and the batch process has crashed, or the user is not logged on, but the batch 
process is running - but Idle.

We decided to introduce a heartbeat to the batch process. After execution on 
the batch process we write a XML file with an execution log. The heartbeat is 
monitored a BizTalk server starting a workflow if the batch process has not 
been executed the last 10 minutes.

Betreff: [development-axapta] AX4.0 how to know batch process is running



Hi everyone,

I am not sure if this has been asked in the group before but if yes please
help direct me to the posting

I want to setup some way to alert me if the batch process (or batch user
login) has failed or not been started in AX4.0.

Basically I have several companies and about 5 batch groups in each so that
is 10 batch processes that need to be running.

I just want a simple way to get an email notification if the batch process
is not running

Usually the problem is the batch user session is terminated for various
reason such as hardware problem

So I was thinking is there some SQL script I can make to check the batch
user is logged in or somehow from outside AX query what batch groups or
processes are currently running in AX?

Thanks in advance for your help

James

RE: [development-axapta] Live AOS failure RPC exception 14 reported in event log many many times per second - any ideas?

2010-05-31 Thread James Flavell
 

Thanks Mike J

 

I don't believe we have any 3rd party apps that connect via business
connector so it must be one of the normal clients L

 

The only external party I can think of is the SQL OLAP being accessed via
the AX client Pivot View analysis (or the pushing of data to the SQL OLAP
during the cube processing) but I don't think this use business connector
right?

 

For stopping and starting since this is AX4.0 do you have any suggestions
for getting the batch client running again? I believe I have to do something
about the startup class or the like and then have a batch file that starts a
client with some startup parameter or something right?

 

Thanks again for your great help, much appreciated J

James

I would focus on whatever 3rd party apps you have on that AOS that connect
via the business connector. That's going to be the source of an RPC error on
the AOS.

Yes, the AOS service crashes when it runs out of memory and it runs slow as
it approaches the upper limits. You should restart the aos service
periodically to prevent this from happening. pick a time of day when it
affects the least amount of people. you could even create 2 .bat files with
'net stop AOS$03' and 'net start AOS$03' and schedule them to run 2 minutes
apart at a time when no one is on the system.

Subject: [development-axapta] Live AOS failure RPC exception 14 reported in
event log many many times per second - any ideas?

Hi everyone

We have an AX4.0 SP2 with kernel 4.0.2503.953

Today the user reported very slow performance and the AOS crashed later on

When we looked in the event viewer there was an error:

Object Server 01: RPC error: RPC exception 14 occurred in session 3

This was logged maybe 50 to 100 times in a single second every second!!!

I searched but could find no mention of RCP 14 error anywhere (including
partner source)

Does anyone have any idea what can cause this error or similar kind of mass
logging in the event viewer every second?

Also I heard the Ax4.0 AOS is likely to crash when the Ax32Serv.exe process
reaches around the 2GB limit. Has anyone heard about this?

Thanks

James

Hi James

The AX AOS will crash as it approaches 2GB of memory use and its likely that 
performance would degrade as it nears this upper limit. It could be that you 
have uncovered a memory leak in AX which might account for this but it could 
also be that you just have too many users that run memory hungry processes at 
the same time and simply need another AOS to spread the load. You could use 
performance monitor to track memory use over time to see if you can get a 
better handle on whther it is a leak or you could simply grab a new kernel 
(there are some memory leak fixes in newer kernels as I've been dealing with a 
leak problem for one of my clients over the last couple of months and the signs 
are good that the latest kernel has resolved the problem for them.

RE: [development-axapta] Live AOS failure RPC exception 14 reported in event log many many times per second - any ideas?

2010-05-31 Thread James Flavell
Thanks Martin

We upgraded the kernel to solve unstable problems of user sessions crashing
or getting message about 'not enough resources so your session will be
terminated' and I agreed it has helped a lot as the whole thing was stable
for almost 2 months (rather than the usual few days) :)

But then this one happened and I guess it was the 2GB limit.  They are only
20+ users so we will just have to try to setup a start and stop routine (the
main challenge to this is restarting the batch client which I asked about in
previous postings in this group)

Thanks again
James
