Monitoring the Rational® ClearQuest® RPC servers

About this task

The following variable is used in this topic:
clearquestHome
Directory where Rational® ClearQuest® is installed

Procedure

  1. View the Rational® ClearQuest® Web log files to validate whether the Rational® ClearQuest® RPC server process, cqrpc, is running.
  2. You can also verify whether the Rational® ClearQuest® RPC servers are functioning from the command-prompt window:
    1. Open a command window and navigate to the following directory:
      Windows
      cd clearquestHome\cqweb\bin
      UNIX Linux
      cd clearquestHome/cqweb/bin
    2. Enter the following command:
      Windows
      cqrpc
      UNIX Linux
      cqrpc.sh

      Each command returns a port number and process ID (PID) if the server is running.
