Running Oracle Tuxedo

In this section, we will discuss how to start and stop Tuxedo and the tools that are available for various administrative purposes. There are some differences in running Tuxedo on a non-Exalogic platform with RDMA features. The tux_msgq_monitor function must be started before booting a Tuxedo application.

Start/stop tux_msgq_monitor

As we just discussed, tux_msgq_monitor should be started before booting the Oracle Tuxedo application. The tux_msgq_monitor function is responsible for starting Msgq_daemon and checking its running status. Before starting tux_msgq_monitor, ensure that the environment variables TUXCONFIG, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and TUXDIR are properly set. If Msgg_daemon terminates abnormally for some reason or other, it restarts using tux_msgq_monitor. One monitor can only serve one Oracle Tuxedo application on one logical machine.

Start tux_msgq_monitor

The following command is an example to start tux_msgq_monitor:

Prompt> tux_msgq_monitor  -i <IPoIB>  ...
