When the Updates and Collects last occurred can be found using the GUI, in the Menu "System > Configuration Check > Node Admin Summary".
Running Collect and Update Jobs Manually
You may need to schedule a collect or update to run immediately, generally if you are doing some modelling activities.
Run an update job on a node called "sol" with debug and log it to a file:
| Code Block |
|---|
/usr/local/nmis9/bin/nmis-cli act=schedule job.type=update job.node=sol job.verbosity=9 job.force=true job.output=/tmp/sol |
The result will be something like:
| Code Block |
|---|
Job 6142a01930437a20d2084c91 created for node sol (05575270-a4ed-4c79-b992-18218c70ce42) and type update. |
If you get this error, change the node name:
| Code Block |
|---|
No nodes found matching your selectors! |
The debug logs would be in a file starting with /tmp/sol e.g.
| Code Block |
|---|
keith@kaos:~$ ls -lrt /tmp/sol*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 315334 Sep 16 11:38 /tmp/sol-1631756322.04417.log |
To run an update on all nodes once you have finished with your new model
| Code Block |
|---|
/usr/local/nmis9/bin/nmis-cli act=schedule job.type=update job.force=true |
The result will be a list of nodes with jobs scheduled
| Code Block |
|---|
keith@kaos:~$ /usr/local/nmis9/bin/nmis-cli act=schedule job.type=update job.force=true

Fault-recovery
If a job remains stuck as active job for too long then the nmis daemon will abort it and reschedule a suitable new job. Such stuck jobs can appear in the queue if you terminate the nmis daemon with act=abort or service nmis9d stop, because these actions immediately kill the relevant processes and don't take active operations into account.
