Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Service Manager Runtime commands (sm)
Service Manager Runtime commands allow you to run regular Service Manager commands in the Service Manager Doctor tool. Therefore, you can use this command-line mode as a command-line console, except that it provides tool-specific commands. For example, you can run sm -reportcache -reportlocks
to check both the cache and locks in one single command.
We do not recommend that you run commands that require options or that return no command results, such as sm -version -log:version.txt
and sm -httpport:XXX
.
The timeout for Service Manager Runtime commands is 50 seconds.
Option | Description | Usage |
---|---|---|
-reportstatus | Retrieves the Service Manager status. | sm -reportstatus |
-reportlbstatus | Retrieves the Service Manager load balancer status. | sm -reportlbstatus |
-reportcache | Retrieves the Service Manager cache data. | sm -reportcache |
-reportipc | Retrieves the semaphore data. | sm -reportipc |
-reportlocks | Retrieves the lock status. | sm -reportlocks |
-reportlic | Retrieves the Service Manager license status. | sm -reportlic |

|
sm -version |
-appversion | Retrieves the Service Manager application version. | sm -appversion |
-sqlverifyconnection | Verifies the database connection. | sm -sqlverifyconnection |
-reportshm | Retrieves the Service Manager shared memory. | sm -reportshm |
-reportsem | Retrieves the Service Manager semaphore. | sm -reportsem |
-all | Runs all Service Manager Runtime commands at one time and returns the results in the output. | sm -all |
-help |

sm -help |
-dlog | Outputs the command result to html and txt files. | sm -all -dlog |
Note The sm
commands listed in the table above, except the -all
, -help
, and -dlog
options, are enabled by default and will be run when you run the sm -all
or run -sm
command. These sm
commands are defined in the CmdOnDemand.xml
file. You can edit this file to enable additional commands to be run. The CmdOnDemand.xml
file can even include commands to launch external diagnostic tools. For example, the Service Manager Doctor tool is shipped with a shell script tool (supportTool.sh
), which collects diagnostic information, such as stack traces of core system files, logs, and configuration files, and saves it in a $HOSTNAME_smsupport.tar
file. See Appendix A. CmdOnDemand.xml for more information.
