Missing Information in the .ERR File

When it runs, the agent produces an .ERR file; however, you may not find the information you need. To find the information, you must look at the agent’s output file: SYS$SYSTEM:NSCHED$AGENT.LOG.

To turn on debugging in the agent, follow these steps:

1. Open the following file:

   SYS$SYSTEM:NSCHED$AGENT_RUN.COM
   

2. Find the following code:

   $!AGENT_PORT := 0
   $!DEFAULT_DIRECTORY := 0
   $!DEBUG_LEVEL := 0
   $!RUN_DETACHED = 1
   $!
   $SCHED$AGENT   !'AGENT_PORT'
   'DEFAULT_DIRECTORY' 'DEBUG_LEVEL'
   'RUN_DETACHED'
   

3. Remove the exclamation points to uncomment the four parameters and the NSCHED$AGENT line. Your code should look like the following:

   $AGENT_PORT := 0
   $DEFAULT_DIRECTORY := 0
   $DEBUG_LEVEL := 0
   $RUN_DETACHED = 1
   $!
   $SCHED$AGENT   'AGENT_PORT'
   'DEFAULT_DIRECTORY' 'DEBUG_LEVEL'
   'RUN_DETACHED'
   

4. Set DEBUG_LEVEL to 5.

   Note: You must uncomment all parameters because the parameters are position-dependent.

5. Close the file.
