Utilities for clustered listeners

In general, you use the Unica Campaign utilities in a clustered listener environment the same way that you use them in a single-node environment. However, there are some differences to be aware of.

The following table summarizes the differences in using the utilities in a clustered listener environment.
Note: This table is just a summary. For details, see the appropriate topics on using the utilities.
Table 1. Using Unica Campaign utilities with clustered listeners
Utility Notes® for clustered listener configurations
Unica Campaign Listener Shutdown utility (svrstop) Use the svrstop utility to gracefully shut down a listener node. For example, run the command prior to performing maintenance on a server.

In a clustered environment, run the svrstop command with the -s (server host name) option to indicate which node to stop. It is not necessary to specify a port. If do not specify a host name, the utility will stop the listener on the current host.

Note: The svrstop command does not stop an entire cluster. To shut down a cluster, use the Unica Campaign Server Manager Shutdown command.
Unica Campaign Server Manager (unica_svradm) In a clustered listener environment, the default connection when you run unica_svradm is to the master listener. When you are connected to the master listener, you can issue the following commands to the master listener, and they are treated as commands to the entire cluster: Loglevel, Refresh, Shutdown, Status, Version.

To affect only a single listener, use Connect -s to specify a node, then run the command.

The unica_svradm command-line prompt indicates the server and port of the listener machine to which you are connected.

For details on each command, see the appropriate topics on using the Unica Campaign Server Manager.

Unica Campaign session utility (unica_acsesutil) Run unica_acsesutil on each listener node, as needed. This utility operates on the .ses file.
Unica Campaign cleanup utility (unica_acclean) Run unica_acclean on each listener node, as needed.
Unica Campaign report generation utility (unica_acgenrpt) Run unica_ acgenrpt on each listener node, as needed. This utility operates on the .ses file.
Unica Campaign trigger utility (unica_actrg)

In a clustered listener environment, all requests are automatically sent to the master listener, which broadcasts the trigger message to all clustered listener nodes. Example: unica_actrg C003 web_hit

You do not need to indicate the port or server name unless you run the command from a remote machine or a script.
