Abstract
This diagnostic tools package can be used to capture information needed by IBM Support to debug and resolve various issues with IBM HTTP Server.
Download Description
The IBM HTTP Server diagnostic tools package contains the following:
- Documentation for configuring IBM HTTP Server and the operating system for problem determination.
- Diagnostic modules to load into IBM HTTP Server to capture first failure information.
Note: For IBM HTTP Server 7.0 and later, the most frequently used diagnostic modules are provided with the product in the modules/debug/ subdirectory. The diagnostic module portion of this package is not needed.
- Diagnostic tools for gathering information on problem symptoms, including child process crashes, hang conditions, high CPU conditions, and startup failures.
- IBM HTTP Server performance tuning information.
- IBM HTTP Server Q & A document.
Prerequisites
Installation of a version of IBM HTTP Server supported by ihsdiag. ihsdiag contains tools and documentation for all levels of IBM HTTP Server on all systems.
Note: The same documentation for V2.0 applies to V6.0 and V6.1.
Installation Instructions
Install this ihsdiag package on the system with IBM HTTP Server. You can also install ihsdiag on a personal workstation in order to view the enclosed documentation, or you can view the documentation from an IBM web site.
- Instructions for Installing on UNIX and Linux systems
- Instructions for Installing on z/OS systems
- Instructions for Installing on Windows systems
Invocation Instructions
The Java components of
ihsdiag must be run under an IBM Java runtime of 1.4.2 or later. IBM HTTP Server 6.0.2 and later bundles a compatible Java runtime, so it is is suggested to invoke the java bundled by IBM HTTP Server instead of the java command found first in your path.
Documentation
For information on using this diagnostic tools package for IBM HTTP Server issues (crashes, hangs, high CPU, startup failures), refer to this document and follow the links appropriate for your operating system and symptom:
