ATG Search and startRemoteLauncher

If the search engine application is running in a separate box than the ATG CA-BCC deployed server, the search engine is invoked through a remoteLauncher running in these boxes. Means, a remoteLauncher needs to run in the host where SearchEngine is installed remotely to start the search engine. You could find the startRemoteLauncher.sh @ ATG/ATG2007.1/Search2007.1/SearchAdmin/bin/startRemoteLauncher.sh

Start remoteLauncher using the command ./startremotelauncher.sh –p <RMI Launcher service Port > &

The Launcher Service Port on the host machine can be found in BCC @
Search Administration>Projects > Search Project: gmri_search_en_CA > Environments > Host Machine: > Advanced Settings.

If the startRemoteLanucher reports a BindingException, then you need to find the process that is using the launchServicePort. For that run the netstat command like : netstat -an |grep 10880
Then inorder to identify the process that uses this port run the command like :
run 'pfiles /proc/* > /export/build/process.txt' .
Then run grep -n 10880 /export/build/process.txt to get the line number and open the process.txt file and go to the lineNumber and find the ProcessID some few line above.

Intimation u/s 143(1) of the Income Tax act

Have you got your Income Tax filing e-receipt ? After a successful assessment of tax returns, income tax department issues Intimation u/s 143(1). Normally these intimations will be received through email to the Email address provided when filing income tax returns online.

ATG Search - search engine tuning settings

In this blog, I am going to list the best tuning settings for ATG Search engine. The AESoapConfig.xml, AESoapWaspConfig.xml and AEConfig.xml are the xmls referred below and you can find it @ <ATG_DIR>\<Searchx.x>\SearchEngine\<operating_system>\bin\ folder. (1) Make sure that the AESoapConfig.xml's rwTimeout is less than or equal to routing's readTimeoutMs. You could find the routing's readTimeoutMs @ atg\search\routing\SearchEngineService component. rwTimeout is the length of time in seconds to wait before a read or write operation times out on an active connection. The number can be decreased to improve performance. However, a value that is too low could cause slow connections to be prematurely closed. (2) Adjust the number of engine threads to match the number of CPUs available to the engine. Note that the minimal value for maxThreads and maxSpar...

ATG Search architectural flow : Search and Index

I would like to explain the high level ATG Search implementation architecture ( for an online store) through the above diagram. In this diagram 1.x denotes the search functionality and 2.x denotes the indexing functionality. I have given JBoss as the application server. Physical Boxes and Application Servers in the diagram ( as recommended by ATG ) : Estore ( Commerce ) Box --> The box with the estore/site ear (with the site JSPs and Java codes). Search Engine Box --> The box with the search engine application running. Indexing Engine Box --> The box with the indexing engine application running. CA (Content Administration) Box --> The box with the ATG CA ear ( where we could take CA -BCC - Search Administration and configure the search projects) . Search Indexer Box --> The box with the ATG Search Index ear ( to fetch the index data from repository). Note that the engine performing indexing will need access ...

ATG search installation and search engine log files

Here I would like to explain how your ATG search folder structure looks like after you do the ATG search installation and also about the search engine log files. To get the ATG search, you need to install the ATGSearch<version>Windows.exe after you do the ATG installation. When you install ATG search, the generated folders include an OS dependant folder. In the below screen shot, you could see the "i686-win32-vc71" folder and this is generated since the ATG search ins installed in a windows machine. The ATG search engine is actually an exe file inside this "i686-win32-vc71" folder. Below screen shot give you an idea about the "atgsearch.exe", which is the search engine application. This search engine application (atgsearch.exe) is started by a remote launcher call from the BCC search administration UI. The log files like "atgsearch_20120106112413_568.log" are the search engine log files where you could see the engine ...
