Monitoring the MCD after upgrading to Linux
« on: April 24, 2019, 10:43:25 AM »
It used to be, that if you Secure Telnet into the system on port 2002, you could see the processes of the system, during things like upgrades, database saves, etc.

With the new Linux upgrade, that port no longer works

Is there a new way to peek inside and watch the processes, without having to physically connect to the serial port?  I liked having this feature when I needed to see what was going on, from a remote location.

You ssh to the Linux host, login as root (to the command prompt), and use the command 'mcd-debug-console' just like a vMCD installation. Use CTRL-e to exit.

Okay, I logged in as root, but that command did not work for me...

Found it on another thread:
the new command is "mcdDebug"

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, though!
