APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
If cdr sync or cdr realize template is issued against an engine where the engine has been started with INFORMIXSERVER environment variable set to a shared memory connection, the sync command will report "ER:External sync failed (rc=1280) for command" and fail to run. Setting INFORMIXSERVER to a TCP connection resolves the issue.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * Users that start the server with INFORMIXSERVER set to a * * shared memory listener thread. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * When we run a cdr request in background mode, we rely on the * * server to spawn the cdr request. The server will always use * * the INFORMIXSERVER environmental variable when starting up * * the spawned task. This causes a problem because the cdr * * utility uses multi-connections when performing a sync or * * check process. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * * Migrate to 11.50xC9 * ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
Added code to switch INFORMIXSERVER to the group name when connecting.
Temporary fix
