analyze_event_files.py
In a MATRIXX environment that has event streaming enabled, the analyze_event_files.py script cleans up orphaned event files that exist due to a system outage and aids in recovering event stream information. This script is not intended to be run manually; it is used by the Event Stream Server for failure recovery purposes.
The analyze_event_files.py script:
- Analyzes event files to find out the highest contiguous GTC value and its last sequence number.
- Puts the next GTC and
sequence number in a known directory (for example,
'
$LOCAL/stream_events
'). - Updates the last set of event files to discard the events that have GTC greater than this GTC value.
Options
- -h, --help
- Show this help message and exit.
