1 INTRODUCTION
This document is designed for users having skill of system administrator and want to be a QUICK REFERENCE MANUAL to be utilized in case of abnormal behaviour of the system. For this reason its organized as a set of sheets for quick and easy consulting, one argument per page.
IMPORTANT NOTE All the pictures reported in this manual are referred to JAIPUR Airport system, but can be useful for all other airports.

2 CONTROL SYSTEM
The FIDS system is composed, in addition to peripheral devices, by a central control system, made by one computer below described, installed in one rack:
RACK
switch device DB1- LB1- AS1 (all in 1 machine) DB1- LB1- AS1 (stand-by) WEB ASA ITA (IVRS SERVER)
This is the minimum configuration, a single PC is used to run Database Server and Application Server software; an additional PC (workstation) is used to manage the system and for operational procedures. As the number of displays starts to grow, an additional PC may be dedicated to run the Application Server software, while the first now acts only as a Database Server. Additional Application Servers may be added to the system, in order to handle an even increased number of displays.

3 FUNCTIONS OF EACH SERVER

The 2 databases are IBM XSeries-346 with 3HD (Software RAID 5). They run: The database software (ORACLE Application ver. 10.1.0.3) (working as Data Base Server) Application programs (working as Load-balancer) Application programs (working as Area Server)
The two LBs work in stand-by: at any time only one of them is active (MASTER) while the other (SLAVE) is ready to take the control in case of master failure. The MASTER, in addition to its own IP address gets 2 IP resources (HA resources). The MASTER is always seen from the outside as 172.26.111.1 (lbsrv) and/or 172.26.111.4 (LOADBALANCER), doesnt matter if master is LB1 or LB2.
Page 16
INDIAN AIRPORTS
3.1 DATABASES (LB SERVERS)

The switch between MASTER and SLAVE is provided by Linux Cluster Suite RH4 UPD4 software. The MASTER carries out also other functions: NFS server (peripheral devices get logos from the master through nfs). SAMBA server (for viewing, modifying logo from a Windows workstation). DNS server (for peripheral devices only). WEB server apache 2.x. The apache server, configured in pre-fork mode is used for providing devices subscription messages exchange.
ANY MISCONFIGURATON OF APACHE SERVICE WILL AFFECT THE SYSTEM STABILITY.

3.1.1 LINUX CLUSTER
3.1.1.1 INTRODUCTION
Red Hat Cluster Manager allows administrators to connect separate systems (called members or nodes) together to create failover clusters that ensure application availability and data integrity under several failure conditions. Administrators can use Red Hat Cluster Manager with database applications, file sharing services, web servers, and more. To set up a failover cluster, you must connect the member systems (often referred to simply as members or nodes) to the cluster hardware, and configure the members into the cluster environment. The foundation of a cluster is an advanced host membership algorithm. This algorithm ensures that the cluster maintains complete data integrity at all times by using the following methods of inter-member communication: Network connections between the cluster systems for heartbeat
Shared state on shared disk storage to hold cluster status

To make an application and data highly available in a cluster, you must configure a service (such as an application and shared disk storage) as a discrete, named group of properties and resources to which you can assign an IP address to provide transparent client access. For example, you can set up a service that provides clients with access to highly-available database application data. You can associate a service with a failover domain, a subset of cluster members that are eligible to run the service. In general, any eligible member can run the service and access the service data on shared disk storage. However, each service can run on only one cluster member at a time, in order to maintain data integrity. You can specify whether or not the members in a failover domain are ordered by preference. You can also specify whether or not a service is restricted to run only on members of its associated failover domain. (When associated with an unrestricted failover domain, a service can be started on any cluster member in the event no member of the failover domain is available.) You can set up an active-active configuration in which the members run different services, or a hot-standby configuration in which a primary member runs all the services, and a backup cluster system takes over only if the primary system fails. Figure 1-1 shows an example of a cluster in an active-active configuration.
Page 18
INDIAN AIRPORTS
Figure 1-1. Example Cluster in Active-Active Configuration
If a hardware or software failure occurs, the cluster automatically restarts the failed member's services on the functional member. This service failover capability ensures that no data is lost, and there is little disruption to users. When the failed member recovers, the cluster can re-balance the services across the members. In addition, you can cleanly stop the services running on a cluster system and then restart them on another system. This service relocation capability allows you to maintain application and data availability when a cluster member requires maintenance.

The command: # clustat gives all information related to Linux Cluster functionality.
[root@lb1jai ~]# clustat Member Status: Quorate
Member Name ------ ---lb1jaipriv lb2jaipriv
Status -----Online, Local, rgmanager Offline
Service Name ------- ---skyway
Owner (Last) ----- -----lb1jaipriv
State ----started
In the above mentioned example the MASTER is lb1jaipriv machine: the service skyway is started on lb1jaipriv. The other server, lb2jaipriv, is offline (see hosts file, page 15).
Linux Cluster is therefore working with the 192.168 subnet.

3.1.2 DRBD
3.1.2.1 INTRODUCTION
The Distributed Replicated Block Device (DRBD) is a software-based, shared-nothing, replicated storage solution mirroring the content of block devices (hard disks, partitions, logical volumes etc.) between servers. DRBD mirrors data : In real time. Replication occurs continuously, while applications modify the data on the device. Transparently. The applications that store their data on the mirrored device are oblivious of the fact that the data is in fact stored on several computers. Synchronously or asynchronously. With synchronous mirroring, a writing application is notified of write completion only after the write has been carried out on both computer systems. Asynchronous mirroring means the writing application is notified of write completion when the write has completed locally, but before the write has propagated to the peer system.
DRBD's core functionality is implemented by way of a Linux kernel module. Specifically, DRBD constitutes a driver for a virtual block device, so DRBD is situated right near the bottom of a system's I/O stack. Because of this, DRBD is extremely flexible and versatile, which makes it a replication solution suitable for adding high availability to just about any application.
Important DRBD is, by definition and as mandated by the Linux kernel architecture, agnostic of the layers above it. Thus, it is impossible for DRBD to miraculously add features to upper layers that these do not possess. For example, DRBD cannot auto-detect file system corruption or add active-active clustering capability to file systems like ext3 or XFS.

Figure 1.1. DRBD's position within the Linux I/O stack
3.1.2.2 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Each device (DRBD provides more than one of these devices) has a state, which can be 'primary' or 'secondary'. On the node with the primary device the application is supposed to run and to access the device (/dev/drbdX; used to be /dev/nbX). Every write is sent to the local 'lower level block device' and to the node with the device in 'secondary' state. The secondary device simply writes the data to its lower level block device. Reads are always carried out locally. If the primary node fails, heartbeat is switching the secondary device into primary state and starts the application there. (If you are using it with a non-journaling FS this involves running fsck) If the failed node comes up again, it is a new secondary node and has to synchronise its content to the primary. This, of course, will happen whithout interruption of service in the background. And, of course, we only will resynchronize those parts of the device that actually have been changed. DRBD has always done intelligent resynchronization when possible. Starting with the DBRD-0.7 series, you can define an "active set" of a certain size. This makes it possible to have a total resync time of 1--3 min, regardless of device size (currently up to 4TB), even after a hard crash of an active node.

INDIAN AIRPORTS 3.1.2.3 UTILITY COMMANDS
The location of Oracle datafiles is /oradata partition. The package drbd (ver. 0.7.15) takes care that /oradata partition is updated from MASTER to SLAVE machine. DRBD1 is a block device which is designed to build high availability clusters. This is done by mirroring a whole block device via (a dedicated) network. What is the scope of drbd, what else do I need to build a HA cluster? DRBD takes over the data, writes it to the local disk and sends it to the other host. On the other host, it takes it to the disk there.
To check the DRBD status on the 2 DBs the following command can be typed (for example on lb1jai): # cat /proc/drbd

3.2 ASA SERVER

ASA server provides the link with the Public Announcements Server (PAS). It acts as an Area Server for the specific device PAS. As specify before this functionality is Integrated in one single machine that runs Database, Load-balancer, automatic announcements and area server. Below is illustrated the tasks related of: All the digitalisations are stored in the /asafiles folder that can be reached through SAMBA. # ls /asafiles E H (*)
(*) In some airports the following local languages are available: L = TAMIL M = MARATHI O = ORYA T = TELGU (Trichy) (Nagpur) (Bhubaneswar) (Vizag)
Each sub-folder contains the Language-related files: E=English, H=Hindi # ls /asafiles/E AIR ALP BAS CAU CTY GAD GEN NUN ORA For each language:
FOLDER
AIR ALP BAS CAU CTY GAD GEN NUN ORA
Description

3.2.1 RAID SOFTWARE ON DATABASES DISKS

The ASA Server has 2 disks each, configured in a RAID-1 mirroring. The OS command to verify what is the situation of the disks is mdadm . For example you may type
# mdadm detail /dev/md2 /dev/md2: Version : 00.90.01 Creation Time : Mon Jan 23 16:14:17 2006 Raid Level : raid1 Array Size : 29398848 (28.04 GiB 30.10 GB) Device Size : 29398848 (28.04 GiB 30.10 GB) Raid Devices : 2 Total Devices : 2 Preferred Minor : 2 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Update Time : Mon Feb 27 16:21:12 2006 State : clean Active Devices : 2 Working Devices : 2 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 8 1 0 active sync /dev/sda1 1 8 17 1 active sync /dev/sdb1 UUID : 0ca81f54:95c001ca:5d29d873:d1fd82e5 Events : 0.474345
The disk is made of 3 partions (each disk MUST be partitioned in the same exact way) /dev/md0 /dev/md1 /dev/md2 is a swap partition is a partion containing data (not currently used) is the partion containing all software (basic, Oracle, Application)
Each mdX device is a logical device and is actually composed by two physical devices, i.e. /dev/md2 is made up by /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 (this setup has been performed at the initial OS installation).
3.2.2 WHAT TO DO IF A DATABASE DISK IS BROKEN

If you need to replace a disk do the following (be sure you have an identical disk): 1. Remove the broken disk and insert the new one. It is strongly suggested to perform this operation when the machine is running as slave. You may perform the disk replacement without powering off the machine because the disks are hot swappable.
Page 28
INDIAN AIRPORTS
2. Run the fdisk utility for the replaced disk,i.e. if the disk replaced is the first, type fdisk /dev/sda and create the partions identical as the ones in the good disk. 3. Once the 2 disks have the same partitions run the command : mdadm --manage /dev/mdX a /dev/sdbY2 where X and Y are 0,1,2 (Take great care to enter the correct values for X and Y otherwise you may destroy the RAID). In our specific case the commands are # mdadm --manage /dev/md0 a /dev/sda3 # mdadm --manage /dev/md1 a /dev/sda2 # mdadm --manage /dev/md2 a /dev/sda1 If the disk to be replaced is the second one just substitute /dev/sda with /dev/sdb.
For more information on mdadm and RAID SOFTTWARE man mdadm.
The a flag adds the disk to the array. If you get an error on this command, try to run mdadm detail /dev/md2. If you see on last lines that /dev/sda1 is stille present in the raid in faulty status, it must be removed with mdadm manage /dev/md2 r /dev/sda1 and then added with the mdadm a command.

4 HOW TO
This section will describe some useful Linux commands necessary for the Servers management.
4.1 Change console

How to know which is the current console: # tty
How to change the current console: ALT F1 ALT Fn ALT RIGHT ARROW ALF LEFT ARROW Display console #1 Display console #n Next console Previous console
How to loggin out: # exit
Page 31
INDIAN AIRPORTS
4.2 STOP / RESTART a Server NEVER Shutdown a running sever cutting the POWER (PRESSING the POWER ON/OFF BUTTON). This could severely damage the filesystem.
For shutting down a server type the commend: # halt and wait the system halted message to appear. Then and only then you can power off the machine. For rebooting a server type the command: # reboot
The servers are configured with GRUB as bootloader. Two entries are provided. The default entry is the normal one. The second one, called MAINTENANCE MODE is a kind of safe-mode entry. Selecting the MAINTENANCE MODE the FIDS application WILL NOT RUN on the Server.
Page 32

4.3 Know if the server is the Master

If you are logged in a L.B. SERVER and want to know if that server is the MASTER: # pidof funhan will give you the PID of the main MASTER PROCESS if any. or # ifconfig
will give you the complete list of the IPs Addresses of the machine. If MASTER ALIASES are present of course that means the machine is the MASTER.

5 SOLARI APPLICATIONS
5.1 DATABASE SERVER (L.B. SERVER)
5.1.1 Main Processes
TTY TASK 1 zr Feature
The Z-Row manager task manages memory representation of display peripherals. Each display line is internally described by a Z-ROW which contains all the informations about the physical format of the line and the logic information to be displayed on. This block is the interface between input processes, which update the operational file, and the output processes, which format and send to the peripheral controllers the informations to be displayed; it actually performs logical mapping between operational file and peripheral rows, implementing the rules about priority of information and displays capacity managing for different types of displays.
2 3
ckhand output
It receives commands from the WEB APPLICATION from CHECK-IN and

GATES DESK and actives funhan The output task performs the following functions: At initialization time reads the system configurations tables on the DB. Then waits for activation by zr. After activation the following actions are made (according to parameters passed by zr): The record, associated to the z-row, is read from DB and then translated into the specific output format. If the conditions for transmission are satisfied the program devhan is called otherwise nothing happens.
funtou
The timeout handler task (funtou) handles the system timeouts. System timeouts are defined to perform given actions on an operational
Page 35
INDIAN AIRPORTS
record after a time interval starting from given events. Periodically the funtou task checks if any of the timeouts expired and eventually executes the related job.
funhan
The function handler task (funhan) is intended as the general interface towards operational file for every kind of update operation. It is activated by input operators procedure (add, mod, del) or by system automatic functions (fillop, digital inputs, time-out handler ). The managing of the record fields for updating or format and coherence verification, performed according to the roules of the system, is tipical of this level: every record must pass through this block to be put in the system internal format. In the record fields the following functions are performed: format, coherence and presence checking on various fields record status updating automatic remarks or special fields generation automatic blink field generation modification and deletation on time-out base managing automatic announcement requests sending
ffhand
The free format handler task (ffhand) handles the free format messages to be displayed on the free format network sending the information stored in the free format database table.
lbhan
It receives the subscriptions from the peripheral devices. If assigns the device to a specific AREA SERVER and eventually to a VIRTUAL CONTROLLER.
lbpoll
It polls the AREA SERVERS to gets their STATUS (INS/OOS). It calls lbhan if something change.
fillop
The operational filler task (fillop) handles the filling of operational from permanent online file.
Page 36
INDIAN AIRPORTS
The fillop task guarantees a DELTAHOURS (default) 24 hours time window of flights into the operational file.
10
perhan
The permanent handler task (perhan) is intended as the general interface towards permanent (online and offline) files for every kind of update operation. It is activated by input operators procedure (add, mod, del). The managing of the record fields for updating or format and coherence verification, performed according to the roules of the system, is tipical of this level: every record must pass through this block to be put in the system internal format.
11
devinz
The device initialization handler task (devinz). It performs the following function : It sends to the devices the Layout according to the System Configuration.
12
devhan
The device handler task (devhan) constitues the software interface between the Solari Information System and the network of different kinds of displays connected. It performs the following function : to distribute all the informations to be displayed on the desired peripherals; to survey the operating status of the displays, and advise in realtime the other components of SKYWAY System.

INDIAN AIRPORTS
6 SYSTEM MONITOR
For monitoring the system, Solari uses monit 4.9. monit is a utility for managing and monitoring processes, files, directories and devices on a Unix system. Monit conducts automatic maintenance and repair and can execute meaningful causal actions in error situations. E.g. monit can start a process if it does not run, restart a process if it does not respond and stop a process if it uses to much resources. You may use monit to monitor files, directories and devices for changes, such as timestamps changes, checksum changes or size changes. Monit is controlled via an easy to configure control file based on a free-format, token-oriented syntax. Monit logs to syslog or to its own log file and notifies you about error conditions via customizable alert messages. Monit can perform various TCP/IP network checks, protocol checks and can utilize SSL for such checks. Monit provides a http(s) interface and you may use a browser to access the monit program. for more details visit the monit official web site www.tildeslash.com/monit. A web interface with monit is available at http://lbsrv/tools/ For restarting a server simply select it, in related web page You will be able to START SERVICE, STOP SERVICE and RESTART SERVICE.
Page 39
INDIAN AIRPORTS
As shown in the previous picture in case of MASTER L.B. Server all FIDS application will be up and running. If the MONIT STATUS is checked on the SLAVE L.B. Server all the processes will have the stopped status. To restart one application, for example tfthan, is only necessary to click on it (see next picture) and click on Restart Service button.

7 LOGO INSTALLATION
All the monitors (TFTs) get the logos from the network via NFS. Logos reside on the MASTER. The folder /export/incoming is available for the installation of new logos or for the logos updating. From a Windows workstation You have a read/write access to \\172.26.111.1\incoming. Use logo as username and password. Inside youll find the following folders (normally empty3):
FOLDER CK_00
DESCRIPTION
Put here the fullscreen images to be displayed on CHECKINS when closed. Name has to be: IMG01.jpg, IMG02.jpg, IMG03.jpg, IMG04.jpg, IMG05.jpg. Size should be 1024x576. (according with TFT resolution) Put here the fullscreen images to be displayed on GATES when closed. Name has to be: IMG01.jpg, IMG02.jpg, IMG03.jpg, IMG04.jpg, IMG05.jpg. Size should be 1024x576.

INDIAN AIRPORTS
8 LOG FILES
All FIDS Application running on the L.B. Server will create an own log file. The log files location is the directory: /solwrk. Inside /solwrk directory there are many sub-directories, one for each FIDS application: the name of each sub-directory is the same name of the FIDS Application (see section 5). Inside each sub-directory there will be 1 log file for each day. The log file name follows the rule: YYYYMMDD
Example: we want to check the log file /solwrk/funhan/20091014
