The SDK Utility
included in PI SDK 2010 R2 includes
a number of new troubleshooting tools.
We'll start off with this About PI SDK
option up here. This shows us which version of the SDK
we have installed, what build it was,
when it was installed and where the program is installed.
It also shows us any important log messages.
So this is going to be critical errors that have happened
between now and this time that is specified right here.
Also, we have a monitor for which PI services are running.
So this monitor here is
monitoring the Net Manager
and the Message SubSystem.
If I were to go in and stop the Message SubSystem,
I should see an alert come up in the utility.
Yup, there it is.
The following monitor services are not running...
So it has noticed that the Message SubSystem is down.
And also, an error has been logged here in the logged
messages. If I restart my PI Message SubSystem,
I'll see the PI Services and I'll notice that it is OK now.
And after a short while, this message will clear as well.
There we go.
