Chapter 16. Troubleshooting AMQ Interconnect You can use the AMQ Interconnect logs to diagnose and troubleshoot error and performance issues with the routers in your router network. 16.1. Viewing log entries You may need to view log entries to diagnose errors, performance problems, and other important issues. A log entry consists of an optional timestamp, the logging module, the logging level, and the log message. Procedure Do one of the following: View log entries on the console. By default, events are logged to the console, and you can view them there. However, if the output attribute is set for a particular logging module, then you can find those log entries in the specified location ( stderr , syslog , or a file). Use the qdstat --log command to view recent log entries. You can use the --limit parameter to limit the number of log entries that are displayed. For more information about qdstat , see qdstat man page . This example displays the last three log entries for Router.A : Note vhost entries are only populated if multiTenant is set to true in the /etc/qpid-dispatch/qdrouterd.conf configuration file. Additional resources For more information about configuring logging modules, see Section 11.2, "Configuring default logging" . 16.2. Troubleshooting using logs You can use AMQ Interconnect log entries to help diagnose error and performance issues with the routers in your network. Example 16.1. Troubleshooting connections and links In this example, ROUTER logs show the lifecycle of a connection and a link that is associated with it. 1 The connection is opened. Each connection has a unique ID ( C1 ). The log also shows some information about the connection. 2 A link is attached over the connection. The link is identified with a unique ID ( L6 ). The log also shows the direction of the link, and the source and target addresses. 3 The link is detached. The log shows the link's terminal statistics. 4 The connection is closed. Note If necessary, you can use qdmanage to enable protocol-level trace logging for a particular connection. You can use this to trace the AMQP frames. For example: Example 16.2. Troubleshooting the network topology In this example, on Router.A , the ROUTER_HELLO logs show that it is connected to Router.B , and that Router.B is connected to Router.A and Router.C : 1 Router.A received a Hello message from Router.B , which can see Router.A and Router.C . 2 Router.A sent a Hello message to Router.B , which is the only router it can see. On Router.B , the ROUTER_HELLO log shows the same router topology from a different perspective: 1 Router.B sent a Hello message to Router.A and Router.C . 2 Router.B received a Hello message from Router.A , which can only see Router.B . 3 Router.B received a Hello message from Router.C , which can only see Router.B . Example 16.3. Tracing the link state between routers Periodically, each router sends a Link State Request (LSR) to the other routers and receives a Link State Update (LSU) with the requested information. Exchanging the above information, each router can compute the hops in the topology, and the related costs. In this example, the ROUTER_LS logs show the RA, LSR, and LSU messages sent between three routers: 1 Router.A sent LSR requests and an RA advertisement to the other routers on the network. 2 Router.A received an LSU from Router.B , which has two peers: Router.A , and Router.C (with a cost of 1 ). 3 Router.A received an LSR from both Router.B and Router.C , and replied with an LSU. 4 Router.A received an LSU from Router.C , which only has one peer: Router.B (with a cost of 1 ). 5 After the LSR and LSU messages are exchanged, Router.A computed the router topology with the related costs. Example 16.4. Tracing the state of mobile addresses attached to a router In this example, the ROUTER_MA logs show the Mobile Address Request (MAR) and Mobile Address Update (MAU) messages sent between three routers: 1 Router.A sent MAU messages to the other routers in the network to notify them about the addresses added for my_queue and my_queue_wp . 2 Router.A received a MAR message in response from Router.C . 3 Router.A received another MAR message in response from Router.B . 4 Router.C sent a MAU message to notify the other routers that it added and address for my_test . 5 Router.C sent another MAU message to notify the other routers that it deleted the address for my_test (because the receiver is detached). Example 16.5. Finding information about messages sent and received by a router In this example, the MESSAGE logs show that Router.A has sent and received some messages related to the Hello protocol, and sent and received some other messages on a link for a mobile address: Example 16.6. Tracking configuration changes to a router In this example, the AGENT logs show that on Router.A , address , linkRoute , and autoLink entities were added to the router's configuration file. When the router was started, the AGENT module applied these changes, and they are now viewable in the log: Example 16.7. Troubleshooting policy and vhost access rules In this example, the POLICY logs show that this router has no limits on maximum connections, and the default application policy is disabled: Example 16.8. Diagnosing errors In this example, the ERROR logs show that the router failed to start when an incorrect path was specified for the router's configuration file: Additional resources For more information about logging modules, see Section 11.1, "Logging modules" .
