Options

  • --url
  • --user
    • Specifies the user account for login to JOC Cockpit. If JS7 - Identity Services are available for Client authentication certificates that are specified with the --client-cert and --client-key options then their common name (CN) attribute has to match the user account.
    • If a user account is specified then a password can be specified using the --password option or interactive keyboard input can be prompted using the -p switch.
  • --password
    • Specifies the password used for the account specified with the --user option for login to JOC Cockpit.
    • Consider use of the -p switch offering a secure option for interactive keyboard input.
  • --ca-cert
    • Specifies the path to a file in PEM format that holds the Root CA Certificate and optionally Intermediate CA Certificates to verify HTTPS connections to JOC Cockpit.
  • --client-cert
    • Specifies the path to a file in PEM format that holds the Client Certificate if HTTPS mutual authentication is used..
  • --client-key
    • Specifies the path to a file in PEM format that holds the Client Private Key if HTTPS mutual authentication is used..
  • --timeout
    • Specifies the maximum duration for requests to the JS7 REST Web Service. Default: 60 seconds.
  • --controller-id
    • Specifies the identification of the Controller that holds related orders.
  • --controller-url
    • When used with the check command, specifies the protocol, host and optionally port of the Controller instance to which the connection is tested.
    • When using the terminate, restart, cancel and cancel-restart commands for a Controller Cluster, the Controller URL must be specified.
  • --agent-id
    • The Agent ID specifies a unique identifier for a Standalone Agent or Agent Cluster. Agents are identified from their Agent ID.
  • --subagent-id
    • The Subagent ID specifies a unique identifier for a Subagent in an Agent Cluster. Subagents are identified from their Subagent ID.
    • When used with the enable-subagent, disable-subagent and reset-subagent commands, the option specifies the related Subagent.
  • --audit-message
    • Specifies a message that is made available to the Audit Log.
    • Specification of Audit Log messages can be enforced on a per user basis and for a JS7 environment.
  • --audit-time-spent
    • Specifies the time spent to perform an operation which is added to the Audit Log.
    • The option can be specified if the --audit-message option is used.

Switches

  • -h | --help
    • Displays usage.
  • -v | --verbose
    • Displays verbose log output that includes requests and responses with the JS7 REST Web Service.
    • When used twice as with -v -v then curl verbose output will be displayed.
  • -p | --password
    • Asks the user for interactive keyboard input of the password used for the account specified with the --user option..
    • The switch is used for secure interactive input as an alternative to use of the option --password=<password>.
  • -s | --switch-over
    • Specifies that folders will be looked up recursively if the --folder option is used.
  • -f | --force
    • When used with the reset-agent command for a Standalone Agent or Cluster Agent, and when used with the reset-subagent command for a Subagent, the option specifies that the Agent will terminate, will drop its journal and will restart. When resetting an Agent, any job processes running in the Agent will be forcibly terminated and orders will be set to the failed state.
    • The operation forces an Agent to be reiniitalized and to be dedicated to the current Controller. Users are recommended to double-check that an Agent is not dedicated to a different Controller before using the switch.
  • --show-logs
    • Displays the log output created by the script if the --log-dir option is used.
  • --make-dirs
    • If directories are missing that are indicated with the --log-dir option then they will be created.

Examples

The following examples illustrate typical use cases for status operations on Controller and Agents.

Terminating, Restarting, Cancelling Controllers

Termination and restart of a Controller instance are offered by a number of commands.

Code Block
languagebash
titleExample for Terminating, Restarting, Cancelling Standalone Controller
linenumberstrue
# common options for connection to JS7 REST API
request_options=(--url=http://localhost:4446 --user=root --password=root --controller-id=controller)

# terminate Standalone Controller
./operate-controller.sh terminate ${request_options[@]}          

# restart Standalone Controller
./operate-controller.sh restart ${request_options[@]}

# cancel Standalone Controller
./operate-controller.sh cancel ${request_options[@]}

# cancel and restart Standalone Controller
./operate-controller.sh cancel-restart ${request_options[@]}


When terminating/restarting a member in a Controller Cluster then --controller-url option must be used to specify which Controller instance should be terminated/restarted.

Code Block
languagebash
titleExample for Terminating, Restarting, Cancelling Controller Cluster
linenumberstrue
# common options for connection to JS7 REST API
request_options=(--url=http://localhost:4446 --user=root --password=root --controller-id=controller)

# terminate Controller Cluster instance
./operate-controller.sh terminate ${request_options[@]} --controller-url=http://localhost:4444

# restart Controller Cluster instance
./operate-controller.sh restart ${request_options[@]} --controller-url=http://localhost:4444

# cancel Controller Cluster instance
./operate-controller.sh cancel ${request_options[@]} --controller-url=http://localhost:4444

# cancel and restart Controller Cluster instance
./operate-controller.sh cancel-restart ${request_options[@]} --controller-url=http://localhost:4444

Switching-over, Appointing Nodes and Confirming Node Loss for Controller Cluster

Users can switch-over the active role in a Controller Cluster. This is achieved by use of the switch-over command and implicitly by use of the --switch-over option with the terminate and restart commands.

The appoint-nodes command is available in case that a Controller Cluster will not be coupled on initial operation.

The confirm-loss command can be used in a situation when the active JOC Cockpit Cluster Watch was not available at the point in time of failure of the active Controller Cluster member. Users can confirm that the failed Controller Cluster member effectively is not running which allows the remaining Controller Cluster member to take the active role.

Code Block
languagebash

# terminate Controller instance and switch-over Controller Cluster
./operate-controller.sh terminate ${request_options[@]} --controller-url=http://localhost:4444 --switch-over

# restart Controller instance and switch-over Controller Cluster
./operate-controller.sh restart ${request_options[@]} --controller-url=http://localhost:4444 --switch-over


# appoint nodes for Controller Cluster
./operate-controller.sh appoint-nodes ${request_options[@]}

# confirm node loss for Controller Cluster
./operate-controller.sh confirm-loss ${request_options[@]} 

Enabling, Disabling, Resetting Agents

When Agents are disabled,. they are not considered for job execution. 

When an Agent is reset then the Agent will terminate and will restart. Job processes running in the Agent will be forcibly terminated and orders will be set to the failed state. When a forced reset is performed, then the operation forces an Agent to be reiniitalized, to drop its journal and to be dedicated to the current Controller. Users are recommended to double-check if an Agent is not dedicated to a different Controller before using the --force switch.

For an Agent Cluster the reset-agent command is available. Enabling/disabling is performed at Suagent level.

When resetting an Agent Cluster then similar behavior applies as for Standalone Agents. Users should be aware that all Subagents in an Agent Cluster will be reset.

Switching-over and Confirming Node Loss for Agent Cluster

Users can switch-over the active role in an Agent Cluster. This is achieved by use of the switch-over-agent command.

The confirm-loss-agent command can be used in a situation when the active Controller Cluster Watch was not available at the point in time of failure of the active Agent Cluster member. Users can confirm that the failed Agent Cluster member effectively is not running which allows the remaining Agent Cluster member to take the active role

Enabling, Disabling and Resetting Subagents

When Subagents in an Agent Cluster are disabled,. they are not considered for job execution. 

When a Subagent is reset then the Subagent will terminate and will restart. Job processes running in the Subagent will be forcibly terminated and orders will be set to the failed state. When a forced reset is performed, then the operation forces a Subagent to be reiniitalized and to be dedicated to the current Agent Cluster. Users are recommended to double-check if a Subagent is not dedicated to a different Agent Cluster before using the --force switch
