NAME¶
dtn2adminep - administrative endpoint task for the "dtn" scheme
SYNOPSIS¶
dtn2adminep
DESCRIPTION¶
dtn2adminep is a background "daemon" task that receives and
processes administrative bundles (all custody signals and, nominally, all
bundle status reports) that are sent to the "dtn"-scheme
administrative endpoint on the local ION node, if and only if such an endpoint
was established by
bpadmin. It is spawned automatically by
bpadmin in response to the 's' (START) command that starts operation of
Bundle Protocol on the local ION node, and it is terminated by
bpadmin
in response to an 'x' (STOP) command.
dtn2adminep can also be spawned
and terminated in response to START and STOP commands that pertain
specifically to the "dtn" scheme.
dtn2adminep responds to custody signals as specified in the Bundle
Protocol specification, RFC 5050. It responds to bundle status reports by
logging ASCII text messages describing the reported activity.
EXIT STATUS¶
- "0"
- dtn2adminep terminated, for reasons noted in the ion.log
file. If this termination was not commanded, investigate and solve the
problem identified in the log file and use bpadmin to restart
dtn2adminep.
- "1"
- dtn2adminep was unable to attach to Bundle Protocol operations or
was unable to load the "dtn" scheme database, probably because
bpadmin has not yet been run.
FILES¶
No configuration files are needed.
ENVIRONMENT¶
No environment variables apply.
DIAGNOSTICS¶
The following diagnostics may be issued to the
ion.log log file:
- dtn2adminep can't attach to BP.
- bpadmin has not yet initialized BP operations.
- dtn2adminep can't load routing database.
- dtn2admin has not yet initialized the "dtn" scheme.
- dtn2adminep can't get admin EID.
- dtn2admin has not yet initialized the "dtn" scheme.
- dtn2adminep crashed.
- An unrecoverable database error was encountered. dtn2adminep
terminates.
