datamaint command within landmark

unknown

Has anyone out there used this command to be able to explain to me what it is doing?

We have consulting firm working with us as we prepare to move to the cloud.  They requested this be ran in our LTM prod environment to correct errors to eliminate him needing to do it on each migration.

But I'm trying to understand what the 'fix' actually does and I'm not getting anywhere.

A snip of the log Managed Services sent me to tell me the errors before 'fixing' (we are on prem but supported with Managed Services currently)

datamaint --auditsnapshot -Vc product line name

Command that was ran…..ie.. our production product line..   datamaint --auditsnapshot -Vc ltmprod"

Review the log file located in %LALOGDIR%/datamaint and look for any business classes that have the following message: *** Errors Detected ***.

To correct the errors, run the following:

datamaint --auditsnapshot -UC product_line_name business_class_name

 

snip of business classes with errors there are many more.

Is it going to 'fix' /change something that my end users see?  That is what I am concerned with

HI Annette

its going fix behind the scene where users wont notice a change. Datamaint supposed to be ran before any LTM upgrade. when you run with -Vc it verifies business objects whose current datate doesn't match with audited view or business objects that have inconsistent audit snapshot data.



when you run -Uc prodline business class or you can run it for all of it by not specifying the business classes. ** No users should be on the system when you run -Uc ( meaning landmark would need to be in adminlaw). Sometimes it does take multiple tries to correct them all.
