Issue/Introduction

Several primary SpectroSERVERs (including MLS) had crashed and failed over to the Secondary systems. When reviewing the stack, it initially appears that it was a REST query that caused it as noted by this:  getModelIDListByXmlSearchCriteria

However, we just made some modeltype changes.

Environment

Release : 10.4.1

Component : Spectrum Core / SpectroSERVER

Cause

The modeltype changes in the catalog were not loaded on all SpectroSERVERS.  When the REST function was executed, it crashed the servers that did not have the modeltype change.

Resolution

Save the catalog on the SS the modeltype changes were done on, and load it in on the rest of the SpectroSERVERs.

1.  Save the catalog while the SS is stopped (or you can run the online backup on the SS you made the changes on and use the backup file).

a.  Navigate to the $SPECROOT/SS directory and run the following command:

../SS-Tools/SSdbsave -c SSdb_catalog_only.SSdb

2.  Transfer either the backup file from the online backup or the SSdb_catalog_only.SSdb file to all other SS.

3.  Stop the SS to load the catalog.

4.  Load the catalog by navigating to the $SPECROOT/SS directory and run the following command:

../SS-Tools/SSdbload -c SSdb_catalog_only.SSdb

5.  Save the database with this command (or use the Spectrum Control Panel):

../SS-Tools/SSdbsave -cm SSdb_full_save.SSdb

6. Start the SpectroSERVER
