The Bootstrap status page
The Bootstrap status page contains this information:
| Section | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Infor ION Grid Bootstrap header | Below this header the name of the Grid, host and current Bootstrap and Grid version numbers are displayed. | ||
| Status section | In this section the Status, Last Updated time, and the last known status of the Grid Agent is displayed. | ||
| Bootstrap Status | Indicates the overall combined status of the Bootstrap and Grid Agent: | ||
| OK | Indicates that no warnings or errors have been encountered. | ||
| WARN | Indicates that a problem was encountered. Once the problem is resolved, for example the Grid Agent dies and is successfully restarted, the status will revert to OK. | ||
| FATAL | Indicates a fatal error that will most likely require user intervention and possibly a restart of the Bootstrap service. Whenever a fatal error that causes the Bootstrap service to become suspended has occurred, a "Resume" link appears next to the status which allows an administrator to signal the Bootstrap to resume operations. An example of such a FATAL error is when the Bootstrap fails to create a database connection due to invalid database user and/or password; in this case the Bootstrap service will be suspended as it cannot continue operations until an administrator signals (Resume) that the problem has been resolved. | ||
| Last Updated | A timestamp when the status of Bootstrap was last updated on the server. | ||
| Agent Status | A list of time-stamped status changes indicating when the Grid Agent was started or stopped. Clicking the status and timestamp link will display a history of previous states of the Grid Agent. | ||
| Current Activities section | This section details the tasks the Bootstrap service is currently performing. | ||
| History section | This section lists the previous Bootstrap service activities. | ||

Activity Types
| "START_STATUS_SERVER" | Indicates that the Bootstrap service is starting. |
| "DATABASE_VERSION_CHECK" | Indicates the Bootstrap service is verifying whether the database is the correct version.
