The following example shows how to trouble-shoot unfinished batch jobs in the SEEDIS cache queue; how to determine what files have recently been cached; and how to remove spurious jobs from the batch queue.
1. move to [cache] default directory. 2. look for pending cache requests. 2a. Check files in the user's directory. 3. look for pending jobs in the cache queue. 4. Determine the identity of the pending cache jobs. 5. find all pending BCKCLAIM requests. 6. Look at BCKCLAIM request 120212574. 7. Examine recent BCKCLAIM log files. 8. Which logs were for BCKCLAIM job 120212574? 9. Look for recent (successful) additions to SEEDIS cache. 10. Which files were cached in each of the successful runs? 11. Which STF3 COUNTY80 files are presently in the SEEDIS disk cache? 12. Delete unneeded pending jobs. 13. Purge (most) old log files. 14. Remove files from temporary scratch disk. 15. Complete user request in DKA300:[USERS.CSTUBER].
1. move to [cache] default directory. rlogin seedis.census.gov -l cache $ set def [cache]
2. look for pending cache requests. [note: "ds" is a global symbol for dir/size/date] $ ds *.ar Directory DKA400:[CACHE] ALLCACHE.AR;1 0 22-APR-1997 11:07:14.38 BACKUP.AR;1 0 22-APR-1997 10:29:34.67 BCKCLAIM.AR;1 1 22-APR-1997 11:07:02.50 CACHE.AR;1 1 22-APR-1997 11:06:48.30 GSS.AR;1 0 24-MAR-1997 03:26:19.93 GSSCLAIM.AR;1 0 20-NOV-1996 19:45:30.48 LOCAL.AR;1 0 24-MAR-1997 03:38:26.17 OFFLINE.AR;1 0 20-NOV-1996 19:45:40.99 TAPEJOBS.AR;1 0 20-NOV-1996 19:45:48.93 TOUCH.AR;1 0 22-APR-1997 10:29:11.52 cache.ar is never empty. The following commands display its contents: $ ar tv cache.ar $ cat cache.ar allcache.ar is the top-level request queue. It gets an entry as soon as a user makes a cache request of any kind. The following command displays its contents. $ ar tv allcache.ar $ ar p allcache.ar (number) displays the contents of subset (number), where (number) (for example 270410049) is a 9-digit integer representing date/time in format ddhhmmss.s. The contents of subset (number) (for example DKA300:[USERS.CSTUBER.TEMP]) specify the directory (userdir) in which the user's job was run. backup.ar gets an entry if a BCK tar archive is needed. The following command displays its contents. $ ar tv backup.ar $ ar p backup.ardisplays the contents of subset , where is a 9-digit integer representing date/time in format ddhhmmss.s. bckclaim.ar gets an entry when a BCK tar archive has been read, and the files are ready for the SEEDIS cache. The following command displays its contents. $ ar tv bckclaim.ar $ ar p bckclaim.ar displays the contents of subset , where is a 9-digit integer representing date/time in format ddhhmmss.s.
2a. Logging in as SYSTEM, Check files in the user's directory. $set host seed01 Username: system Password: $set def, for example $set def DKA300:[USERS.CSTUBER.TEMP] The presence of temporary files *.ar indicates that caching for this job is not yet complete: $ds *.ar 270410049.AR;1 0 27-JAN-1998 04:10:10.98 270431426.AR;1 0 27-JAN-1998 04:31:45.19 STATUS.AR;1 1 27-JAN-1998 04:32:04.06 status.ar is the top level status file.

The file 270410049.ar and 270431426.ar are both empty, indicating that those jobs have not completed. (Each cache process, when completed, writes a line to one of those files. A background job, running intermittently as user CSTUBER, checks the status of those files. When caching is complete, the required data are extracted from the cache and written to the user's output file codata.dat, and the temporary files *.ar are deleted from the user's directory.) The word DATACACHE indicates that area selection was complete. The completed geocode. file contains: $cat geocode. AREAS = 1 NDE = 3 CARDLENGTH = 70 TYPE = A USE = D *LEVEL = PLACE80 FILE =;PLACE80; DE = FIPS.STATE USE = K START = 1 LENGTH = 2 DE = FIPS.PLACE80 USE = K START = 3 LENGTH = 4 DE = STUB.GEO USE = S START = 7 LENGTH = 33 END DDF 240995MD UPPER MARLBORO TOWN The selected geographic area was the single PLACE80=240995. The data selection file delist.dat contains: $cat delist.dat STF3 TAB9(1) TAB10(1) ; Two data elements were requested from database STF3 (1980 Summary Tape file 3). Log out as SYSTEM. $logout
3. look for pending jobs in the cache queue.

11. Which STF3 COUNTY80 files are presently in the SEEDIS disk cache? $ds/total sy$cachetemp:[cache.temp.seedata.stf3.county80] Directory DKA400:[CACHE.TEMP.SEEDATA.STF3.COUNTY80] Total of 102 files, 19787 blocks. As of April 22, All 51 states including DC are present. It is mysterious, but now unimportant, why the first of the 82-file Apr 18 request had not completed after four days. It is also mysterious, but now unimportant, why the April 12 BCKCLAIM request was still in bckclaim.ar.
12. Delete unneeded pending jobs.
The BCKCLAIM jobs in the batch queue, and the BCKCLAIM request in
bckclaim.ar, are not needed because S24.DAT and S24.NDX are already
in the cache.
$ show queue seed01_background

$ ar dv bckclaim.ar
The user batch jobs owned by user CSTUBER will abort and disappear one by one,
due to the absence of bckclaim.ar. Optionally, user CSTUBER may remove his own
pending batch jobs from the queue.
13. Purge (most) old log files. $purge/keep=5 *.log Future requests for any or all STF3 COUNTY80 data will now be quickly satisfied without the need for any GSS cache activity. Such requests will produce temporary files allcache.ar and touch.ar; log files allcache.log and touchall.log; and new entries in the cache log files sy$cachelog:t9704apr.df and sy$cachelog:f9704apr.df.
14. Remove files from temporary scratch disk. These files may be globally deleted if there are NO more pending cache jobs. $set def dka700:[cache_files] $set prot=o:rwed [...]*.dir (repeat the following command several times to remove all subdirectories) $dele/log [...]*.*.*
15. Complete user request in DKA300:[USERS.CSTUBER]. Due to irregularities that occurred, the user's extraction job may or may not have completed successfully. In order, try the following: 15a. Look for complete codata file. rlogin seedis.census.gov -l cstuber $ set def dka300:[users.cstuber] $ crt codata.dat 15b. If codata file is incomplete, finish the extraction manually: $ set def dka300:[users.cstuber] $ seedis : continue 15c. If this is unsuccessful, cancel DATA module and repeat request: $ seedis : data : cancel 15d. If you saved the previous delist.dat (as delist.sav), use it now: : $copy delist.sav delist.dat : extract 15e. If you did not save the previous delist.dat, make a new one and use it: $ seedis : data : cancel : cf (database code for STF3) (select data elements required) : quit : $ copy delist.dat delist.sav (optional, to save delist.dat for future use) : extract 15f. If the directory is corrupted or confused, login again and restart seedis from an empty directory: rlogin seedis.census.gov -l cstuber $ set def dka300:[users.cstuber] $ delete *.*.* $ seedis
