usage: wfcommand <pattern matching expression for workflow name> <'Workflow' | workflow service | agent> <instructions> ...

Debug

The command accepts wild cards, such as '*' and '?'. For further information see Textual Pattern Matches.

To turn the debug on for a workflow:

mzsh <username>/<password> wfcommand <workflow> Workflow debug on

To turn the debug for a workflow off:

mzsh <username>/<password> wfcommand <workflow> Workflow debug off

Supervision

By stating the Supervision service you can select to trigger and clear supervision actions with the wfcommand command.
If you want to use the wfcommand to trigger the Supervision service, you can append the following instructions:

• manual which has the following syntax:
  

  Usage: manual [-action actionName actionParameters]

  Simply entering manual will deactivate the Supervision Service configurations and switch to manual mode, which means that no conditions will be evaluated and no actions will be executed.

  When using the -action option, the syntax will be as follows:

  Usage: manual -action overload ( <ratio> | -trigger | -clear ) [strategy]

  Option	Description
  ratio	If you want to trigger overload and reject a specific ratio of incoming requests, e g reject every fifth request, you can enter the ratio number here. 2 equals every second request, 5 equals every fifth request, etc.
  -trigger	Use this option if you want to trigger overload for everything. An event will then be sent out for monitoring purposes. This will disable the automatic Supervision configuration.
  -clear	Use this option if you want to clear overload for everything. Any Diameter/Radius overload protection strategies will be cleared and no requests will be rejected. The automatic Supervision configuration will then be disabled. Note! Using this option will not enable the automatic Supervision configuration.
  [strategy]	Use this option to state a specific Diameter/Radius strategy, e g Diameter_AbortSessionRequest, Diameter_CCEventRequest, etc. See the /wiki/spaces/MD82/pages/3768690 for further information about these strategies.

• automatic is used to revert to automatic Supervision configuration.

When switching from automatic to manual mode, all active overload protection will remain active. However, in the opposite direction, when switching from manual to automatic mode, all active overload protection will be reset and the appropriate overload protection will be set by the automatic rules.

Each time you switch between manual an automatic mode, an entry will be logged in the System Log for monitoring purposes.

mzsh <username>/<password> wfcommand <workflow> "Supervision" manual -action overload -trigger

mzsh <username>/<password> wfcommand <workflow> "Supervision" manual -action overload -clear

mzsh <username>/<password> wfcommand <workflow> "Supervision" manual -action overload 5 Diameter_AbortSessionRequest

mzsh <username>/<password> wfcommand <workflow> "Supervision" automatic

See the /wiki/spaces/MD82/pages/3768690 for further information about Supervision Service, Diameter, Radius, and overload.

Aggregation and Diameter agents

The Aggregation and Diameter agents allows the user to interact with the flow of data via the wfcommand. For further information, see /wiki/spaces/MD82/pages/3784676 and /wiki/spaces/MD82/pages/3786561 in the /wiki/spaces/MD82/pages/3768690.

GTP agent

The GTP agent allows the user to view the MIM counters via the wfcommand. For further information, see /wiki/spaces/MD82/pages/3785078 in the Desktop user's guide. 

The request counters and the timestamp, which are published as MIM values are also possible to view from the commandline tool.

mzsh wfcommand <Workflow Name> <Agent Name> printcounters
