3tnetha - Network Health Check Script

3tnetha is an administrator-modifiable script, which allows grid administrators to script various network/switch-related checks. The 3tnetha script is invoked periodically by CA 3Tera AppLogic as part of its periodic health checks.

The 3tnetha script resides within the /var/applogic/scripts directory on the controller. By default, the script does nothing except for exit 0.

If everything is OK, the script should complete with a 0 exit code. If there is a problem, the script should fail with an exit code of 1 and display an error message to STDOUT describing the problem. When 3tnetha fails with an exit code of 1, the message displayed by 3tnetha is posted to the grid dashboard. The format of the dashboard message is the following:

A problem has been detected with the grid's network: STDOUT from 3tnetha. Contact technical support for assistance.

If the script fails with an exit code greater than 1, this indicates there has been a failure to determine the network state. In this case, CA 3Tera AppLogic posts a generic dashboard message indicating the problem.
