Issue
How to verify that all of the needed jobs for Zend Server for IBM i are active.
Environment
Zend Server for IBM i version 6 or higher, running on any supported version of IBM i.
From a 5250 command line:
Use option "3. Work with Zend Server subsystems". Select option 1, and press enter. This will bring up the "Work with Active Jobs" display for subsystem ZENDPHP7. Please verify that the following jobs display:
The jobs that start up are controlled by settings, so they may differ from those shown above. For a new installation, the jobs shown above should all be there. They are for the Server Daemon, Deployment, Job Queue, and Monitor components. We recommend that the configuration should not be changed to exclude these jobs. You may also see additional jobs for the Java Bridge and Prngd (Pseudo-random number generator).
Use F3 to return to the menu. Once again, use option "3. Work with Zend Server subsystems". Use option 2, and press enter. This will bring up the "Work with Active Jobs" display for jobs named ZENDPHP7. Please verify that the following jobs display:
For a new installation, all of these jobs should appear. If the FastCGI configuration has been modified, there may be more of the jobs running function "PGM-php-cgi.bi". There will be as many as there are child processes specified, plus one. There may also be additional jobs running "PGM-QZSRLOG" if the Apache configuration has been modified to produce more logs. However, for new installations, the list of jobs shows the expected jobs for the default configurations.
If any of the jobs above are missing, please try a reset, if you have not already done so. Then check again to see if all the jobs have started. This article tells how to do the reset:
