Unable to Start Output Post Processor and workflow related Concurrent Manager

We often get in situations where we are Unable to Start Output Post Processor and workflow-related Concurrent Manager.  If we check the error in the concurrent manager logs  we see the following errors

Error in log file :

  • Similar errors are present in the workflow concurrent manager.
  • These errors generally come if the Service Manager (FNDSM)  is not up or if it is up, it is in a hang situation.
  • This can happen in Concurrent Manager failover or failback in Parallel concurrent Processing env.
  • If FNDSM is not Up,  we can activate and deactivate the Internal monitor, it will automatically bring up the FNDSM
  • if FNDSM is hung, then kill the process using the below process
ps -ef|grep FNDSM  
kill -9 <pid>

we can activate and deactivate the Internal monitor, it will automatically bring up the FNDSM

Why are we saying here Internal monitor as it is safe to restart the process any time with out stopping any critical buisness process

Once FNDSM is up, the workflow-related manager and Output post processor will come automatically. Hope this resolves the Unable to Start Output Post Processor in your environment also

We can look up at Concurrent Manager concept in the below articles
