Question
How to find out whether z39.50 server of xxxdb is running (where xxxdb is the Voyager Database Instance)?
Answer
- SSH to server as root or voyager
- Run the command: ps -ef | grep 3950 | grep xxxdb
- See the output similar to the following:
voyager 6398 1 0 04:28 ? 00:00:00 /m1/voyager/bin/2009.1.0/z3950svr -i /m1/voyager/xxxdb/ini/z3950svr.ini -c /m1/voyager/xxxdb/ini/voyager.ini
- If there is no output, it means that there is no z39.50 server running for this xxxdb.
Third-party testing tools (such as Yaz client, Yaz Self-Validation App, the MarcEdit Z39.50 Client, etc) can also be used to test if the z39.50 server is running if you know your server's required parameters.
