5.32.2.2 Command Line Mode

The Configuration File Checker Tool can be used in the command line mode. The results can be viewed on the screen or redirected to a file.

Syntax

javacom.adventnet.nms.tools.configcheck.ParseConfigFiles <-f filename / directory> <-o filename> <-all

<Web NMS Home >directory

• -f option takes either a file (configuration file exampleprovider.xml)or a directory that contains configuration files

• -o takes filename as value (optional). This is optional. If this option is not given the results are shown in the console.

• -all does not take any argument, but relies on the value given for -root option

• -root takes < Web NMS Home> directory as argument. If this option or its value is ignored it assumes the current directory as < Web NMS Home> directory.

Examples

• java com.adventnet.nms.tools.configcheck.ParseConfigFiles -f < Web NMS Home>/conf/provider.xml
  The above command will check the provider.xml configuration file and show the results of parsing in the console.

• java com.adventnet.nms.tools.configcheck.ParseConfigFiles -f < Web NMS Home>/conf/provider.xml -o output.txt.
  The above command will check the provider.xml configuration file and save the results of parsing in output.txt file. This file is created in the current directory if the path is not specified.

• java.com.adventnet.nms.tools.configcheck.ParseConfigFiles -f < Web NMS Home>/conf.
  The above command will check all the configuration files located in the conf directory under < Web NMS Home>. The results of parsing all the files will be displayed on the screen. Some files for eg. relationalclasses.conf look for the< Web NMS Home> directory. So the < Web NMS Home> directory is a must for relationalclasses.conf and DatabaseAliases.conf. It can be given using the -root or by running this tool from the< Web NMS Home> directory.

• java com.adventnet.nms.tools.configcheck.ParseConfigFiles -f
  < Web NMS Home>/conf -o ../xxx/output.txt
  The above command will check all the configuration files under conf and place the results of parsing in the output file given in the path. If output.txt exists already in the current directory, the tool will confirm whether to overwrite / skip.

• java.com.adventnet.nms.tools.configcheck.ParseConfigFiles -root < Web NMS Home> -all
  The above command will check all configuration files under the < Web NMS Home>/conf directory, the <Web NMS Home >/listmenus directory,the < Web NMS Home>/ mapdata directory,the < Web NMS Home>/users directory, and the < Web NMS Home>/html/defaultsToNewUsers directory. This option relies on -root option for < Web NMS Home> directory value. If value for -root option is not given then the current directory is taken as the root directory.
