ICM process check

DB2 database check:

# ps -ef | grep db2loggw
This command shows you the (log writer processes of the) DB2 databases that are active. To show the DB2 instance list:
# su - db2inst1 -c db2 list active databases
# su - db2inst1 -c db2ilist
Check if the db2agents and db2sysc are active via ps -ef. If one of these are not functioning, the database will not be active.

Check connectivity to DB2 database:
# su - db2inst1
# db2 connect to [database-instance] user [user-name] using [password]
db2 list tables
db2 list applications
db2 connect reset
IBM HTTP Server check:

Check the HTTP process using:
# ps -ef | grep httpserver
Startup a web browser to http://[server]/ and to https://[server]/.

Check the eClient:
# ps -ef | grep eClient_Server
WebSphere check:

Start a browser to http://[server]:9090/admin and login with ID wasadmin or icmadmin. Start a command window, go to the WebSphere directory (WebSphere/AppServer/bin) and run:
# serverstatus -all
Individual WebSphere applications can be stopped with stopserver icmrm (if you would like to stop the Resource Manager) and startserver icmrm (server1 is the default WebSphere server).

Check the Resource Manager

Start a browser to http://[server]/icmrm/ICMResourceManager. If you get output about a NULL request, it's fine.

Other checks:

http://[server]/icmrm/snoop should output information of the Snoop Servlet.
https://[server]/icmrm/ICMRMAdminServlet should show RM diagnostic data (You'll probably have to logon with the rmadmin userid).
