Problem:
When I try to start xcomd using a script, I get the following messages to the screen and CA XCOM does not start.
2016/01/19 11:38:19 PRG=xcomd PID=13828204
XCOMU0465E Check of xcom.glb pathnames failed.
2016/01/19 11:38:19 PRG=xcomd PID=13828204
XCOMU0466E Unable to create an index file for queue.
Environment:
CA XCOM r11.6 for AIX, or any other Unix/Linux platform
Resolution:
If using a script to initiate/start the xcomd deamon, you need to make sure that the environmental variable of XCOM_HOME has the correct path and that the statements in that script are correctly sourced.
If you are manually initiating/starting the xcomd deamon, you can double check the value of the XCOM_HOME variable with command: echo $XCOM_HOME. Should the value be null or incorrect you can temporarily correct that by defining the variable with the following commands: XCOM_HOME=/opt/CA/XCOM; export XCOM_HOME.
You may want to define the variable permanently to your systems accordingly depending on the OS being used.
