Using Console / SSH commands
- Nina Cardillo
The SmartServer is based on the Linux operating system and many common Linux commands can be used to access the SmartServer through the SmartServer console or by using SSH. This section covers some of the most commonly used console/SSH commands for troubleshooting the SmartServer. Most commands can be issued using the apollo login. In some cases, you will need to add sudo to the beginning of the command for higher privileges. Always use the apollo user login and not root. Newer versions of the SmartServer restrict or prevent root login.
Many commands (like top) will continuously run until you exit the command, and therefore, should be run in an SSH session instead of the SmartServer console. A SSH session will disconnect when the PC is no longer able to access the SmartServer, and therefore stopping the continuous command. You can exit continuous commands by entering CTRL-C.
The table below describes and provides examples of console/SSH commands. To eliminate hidden characters, copy the commands to a text editor (e.g., notepad), and then copy the commands from the text editor and paste them into the SSH session.
For SmartServer 4.0 and higher, most log data is in /var/log/syslog. Use smartserverctl to access SmartServer services.
For SmartServer 3.6 and prior releases, log data is distributed into specific log files, such as logs in /var/log/supervisor. Use supervisorctl to access SmartServer services.
For SmartServer 3.6 and prior, use systemctl for to check the Karaf service.
The commands shown in the table below assume that apollo login is used.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| apollo-reset | This command is used to reset the SmartServer database. If you want to keep any of the SmartServer configuration, then you should save SmartServer configuration using the CMS prior to using these commands. When possible, you should use the SmartServer Configuration page System tab Reset to defaults button to reset the SmartServer database or to restore to factory. Otherwise, use the commands described below. The apollo-reset commands should not be used for SmartServer versions 3.2x. Only use this command for SmartServer version 3.1 and earlier, or 3.3 and later. Do not use this command for SmartServer versions 3.2 to 3.25 as the commands can damage the SmartServer. Reset Database – resets the SmartServer database and re-configures MAC IDs assignment (with affects IP-852 routing and Internal device UIDs); it does not change the SmartServer IP settings. Format: sudo apollo-reset normal <apollo password> Example: Reset Database with SmartServer password = kksdafdsj sudo apollo-reset normal kksdafdsj Restore to Factory – resets SmartServer database, and re-configures MAC IDs assignment (with affects IP-852 routing and Internal device UIDs), sets IP address settings to default, and resets other driver configurations Format: sudo apollo-reset factory <apollo password> Example: Restore Factory Settings with SmartServer password = 432597787 sudo apollo-reset factory 432597787 |
| cat | For SmartServer 3.6 and prior releases, this command allows you to read a file, and is most useful for reading small files. For longer files, use more. Displays the contents of a log file $cat /var/log/supervisor/lte.log Displays the contents of a large log file $more /var/log/supervisor/lte.log For SmartServer 4.0 and higher, use the tail and grep commands since all the logs go into /var/log/syslog, which can be very large in size. |
| date | Displays the SmartServer platform current local time (time changes are not propagated to CMS). The SmartServer CMS and the SmartServer platform time and timezone may differ. See also timedatectl below. Example: date $ date Mon Dec 12 15:10:56 PST 2022 Use timedatectl to change the time or date. |
| df | Displays system disk space usage. If your system disk space usage is close to 100%, then you may experience performance (e.g., slow response times) or operational (e.g., cannot access CMS web page) problems. Example: df df -h Example: df (healthy system) $ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/root 2.9G 2.3G 496M 83% / devtmpfs 846M 0 846M 0% /dev tmpfs 1007M 20K 1007M 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 202M 4.8M 197M 3% /run tmpfs 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock tmpfs 1007M 0 1007M 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/mmcblk3p1 16M 14M 2.4M 85% /boot /dev/mmcblk3p5 675M 33M 593M 6% /var/apollo /dev/loop0 275M 320K 254M 1% /var/core /dev/mmcblk2p1 30G 554M 28G 2% /media/sdcard A /dev/root of 85% is acceptable; however, if it shows 100%, or another item shows close to 100%, then use the du command to determine which file is using the excessive memory. |
| du | Allows you to determine which files are using a lot of disk space. If the df -h command shows anything close to 100% for any of the items listed, then you can use this du command to help identify which files are the cause. Some files are expected to be large while others are expected to be small. Go to the directory that shows 100%, or close to 100%, and search for files over 5MB. Example: Looks for directories over 1 MB sudo du -t 1M -x -s -h * A large file does not mean it is a problem. You should compare the results with another working SmartServer. If you find a file on a SmartServer that is much larger than the same file on another SmartServer, then you should look at that file. For example, if /dev/root shows 100% usage, then change to the root directory run the du command. $ cd / $ sudo du -t 1M -x -s -h * 14M boot 1.1E etc 191M home du: cannot access 'proc/831/task/831/fd/3': No such file or directory du: cannot access 'proc/831/task/831/fdinfo/3': No such file or directory du: cannot access 'proc/831/fd/3': No such file or directory du: cannot access 'proc/831/fdinfo/3': No such file or directory du: cannot read directory 'proc/32610/task/32610/net': Invalid argument du: cannot read directory 'proc/32610/net': Invalid argument 26M root 1.1M run 1.8G usr 264M var Lines starting with du: cannot access can be ignored. If a file appears to be too large, then go to that directory and run the du command again. You can then issue the ls -lh command to see which files use a lot of space. |
| echo | This command can be used to determine the SmartServer software version. The SmartServer software version will also be displayed when you log into the SmartServer console/SSH. Example: Determines SmartServer version echo $APOLLO_VERSION Example: echo $ echo $APOLLO_VERSION 3.60.016 |
| grep | Displays any line in a file that has the specified text. Example: Searches for any indication of EMI? sudo grep "EMI?" /var/log/syslog |
| history | Displays the previously issued SSH commands. This list is not cleared when the console/SSH session is terminated. Example: Displays history history Example: Clears history history -c |
| journalctl | Use this command to monitor output to syslog. Use this command instead of tail -f /var/log/syslog because this command will tolerate log rotation. Example: shows logged output of all the units in the SmartServer journalctl -f Example: shows the logged output of the lte driver journalctl -f -u |
| ifconfig | Displays the SmartServer hardware interfaces, like Ethernet IP Address, U60/U70 interfaces, and IOX. When using the ifconfig command from the console, either log in as root or enter sudo ifconfig. Example: ifconfig ifconfig Example: eth0 is the LAN port, eth1 is the WAN port, IP70 is the SmartServer backbone, lon# (lon0) refers to a U60/U70 $ ifconfig

If all of your LON devices are down, then use ifconfig to look for lon# or check the System Configuration page LON tab to see if the U60/U70 appears. To see traffic on a U60/U70, determine the lon# (e.g., lon0) and use the ifconfig command to look at TX and RX packets. Re-issue the command a couple of seconds later.

|
| pmic_checker.sh | Used to check the SmartServer PMIC version. Older SmartServer software version may not support newer SmartServer hardware version since the CPU, PMIC, or memory may have changed and the older software is not aware of the new hardware. Using the wrong software version may cause the SmartServer to stop working and be unrecoverable. PMIC:

| reboot | Reboots the SmartServer. You can use this method if you cannot reboot the SmartServer using the System Configuration page. Once you issue the command, there is a short delay before the SmartServer reboots. Example: reboot sudo reboot |
| re-image.sh | Starts the re-image script. You first have to plug in a USB flash drive with the SmartServer flash drive image (unzipped files), and then run this command. See also Updating or Re-imaging the SmartServer with the SmartServer Console. Example: re-image script sudo /media/usb0/re-image.sh |
| smartserver-secure | With SmartServer 3.5 and higher, this command is used to enable/disable enhanced security and is the same as using the Enable Enhanced Security setting on the System Configuration page. Enhanced security defaults to being enabled. Enable enhanced security sudo smartserver-secure +all Disable enhanced security sudo smartserver-secure -all To disable only password time checking and enable all other enhanced security features: Disable enhanced security password checking sudo smartserver-secure -pwd |
| su | Switches to higher permissions so that you do not have to add sudo before console/SSH commands. Example: su, switches to higher permissions $ su Password: Example: exit, exits higher permissions exit |
| smartserverctl | Requires SmartServer 4.0 and higherChecks the status of SmartServer services and shows built-in services, like bacnet, which is used for BACnet, and any internal device application. Example: smartserverctl sudo smartserverctl status Example: smartserverctl status $ smartserverctl status alarm ACTIVE 1h 4min bacnet ACTIVE 1h 4min core ACTIVE 1h 4min datapoint-connection-manager ACTIVE 1h 4min datapoint-controller ACTIVE 1h 4min datapoint-get ACTIVE 1h 4min enocean-driver ACTIVE 1h 4min formatter ACTIVE 1h 4min housekeeper ACTIVE 1h 4min iap-controller ACTIVE 1h 4min init ACTIVE 1h 4min lim ACTIVE 1h 4min loader ACTIVE 1h 4min logger ACTIVE 1h 4min lon ACTIVE 1h 4min lte ACTIVE 1h 4min ltx ACTIVE 1h 4min lwd ACTIVE 1h 4min modbus ACTIVE 1h 4min monitoring ACTIVE 1h 4min mosquitto ACTIVE 1h 4min node-red ACTIVE 1h 4min pyro4-ns ACTIVE 1h 4min query ACTIVE 1h 4min reboot-manager ACTIVE 1h 4min resource-publisher ACTIVE 1h 4min scheduler ACTIVE 1h 4min secmount ACTIVE 1h 4min services ACTIVE 1h 4min smartserver ACTIVE 1h 4min storage-manager ACTIVE 1h 4min apollo@smartserver-17qam88:~$ Most services have roughly the same uptime. If the uptime for one service is very different from others, then this may mean that the service was restarted. LTE and LTX services may have different uptimes than the rest of the services. These services are re-started automatically each time you import or re-import an XIF or resource file set XML files. They may also get restarted due to other normal processing. The example below shows how to restart both the LTE and LTX services using a single command. Example: Restarts both LON services (LTE and LTX) sudo smartserverctl restart lon Example: Restarts all services sudo smartserverctl reload Example: Disables automatic start on boot for a given services or groups # smartserverctl disable service [service ...] Disable service command Issuing only the disable service command does not stop the service from running. The service will continue to run and will only be stopped after a reboot or by issuing the stop command as well. If you want to stop the service from running, then issue the following commands: # smartserverctl stop service [service ...] |
| supervisorctl | For SmartServer 3.6 and prior releases, this command checks the status of SmartServer services and shows built-in services, like echbacnet, which is used for BACnet, and any internal device application. Example: supervisorctl sudo supervisorctl status Example: supervisorctl status $ sudo supervisorctl status apollo-init EXITED Dec 15 06:57 AM core:echhousekeeper RUNNING pid 1183, uptime 2:54:05 core:echlim RUNNING pid 1189, uptime 2:54:05 echbacnet RUNNING pid 1167, uptime 2:54:05 echmodbus RUNNING pid 1259, uptime 2:54:03 echopcua-server STOPPED Not started lon:echlte RUNNING pid 3497, uptime 2:52:29 lon:echltx RUNNING pid 3496, uptime 2:52:29 ready EXITED Dec 15 06:57 AM services:echalarm RUNNING pid 1239, uptime 2:54:04 services:echapollo-rp-launch RUNNING pid 1250, uptime 2:54:03 services:echconnection RUNNING pid 1241, uptime 2:54:04 services:echdatapointcontrol RUNNING pid 1244, uptime 2:54:04 services:echdatapointget RUNNING pid 1248, uptime 2:54:04 services:echformatter RUNNING pid 1249, uptime 2:54:04 services:echiap-controller RUNNING pid 1255, uptime 2:54:03 services:echloader RUNNING pid 1238, uptime 2:54:04 services:echlogger RUNNING pid 1212, uptime 2:54:04 services:echmonitoring RUNNING pid 1224, uptime 2:54:04 services:echquery RUNNING pid 1232, uptime 2:54:04 services:echscheduler RUNNING pid 1252, uptime 2:54:03 Most services have roughly the same uptime. If the uptime for one service is very different from others, then this may mean that the service was restarted. LTE (lon:echlte) and LTX (lon:echltx) services may have different uptimes than the rest of the services. These services are re-started automatically each time you import or re-import an XIF or resource file set XML files. They may also get restarted due to other normal processing. The example below shows how to restart both the LTE and LTX services using a single command. Example: Restarts both LON services sudo supervisorctl restart lon: Example: Restarts all services sudo supervisorctl reload For SmartServer 4.0 and higher, see smartserverctl. |
| systemctl | For SmartServer 3.6 and prior releases, this command determines if the CMS has started, even if you cannot log into the CMS. The CMS is typically accessible within five minutes after the Change Password button becomes enabled on the System Configuration page. If the SmartServer is been up for 15 minutes, then most likely the CMS is up. If you can access the Configuration pages and console/SSH, but not the CMS, then issue the following command. Example: systemctl sudo systemctl status karaf The following command shows whether or not Karaf service is up. If you see active (running) in green, then this means that the service is up. However, it does not guarantee that Karaf (CMS) is fully working. If you cannot reach the SmartServer Configuration pages (nginx) and other services, then enter the following commands: sudo systemctl status sudo systemctl list-units --state=failed |
| tail | Displays the end of a file and also displays all new entries. This command should only be used with SSH. Enter CTRL-C to exit. For SmartServer release 4.0 and higher tail -10f /var/log/syslog tail -f /var/log/syslog For SmartServer 3.6 and prior releases. tail -10f /var/log/supervisor/lte.log tail -f /var/log/supervisor/lte.log |
| tar | Creates tape archive files (i.e., a Linux zip file). Once you tar-up a file, you can then copy it to your PC and un-tar it with an application like 7-Zip. For SmartServer 4.0 and higher, use the SmartServer System Configuration page Logs button to download the SmartServer log files. Most of the driver logs are included in the SmartServer 4.0 and higher /var/log/syslog. For SmartServer 3.6 and prior, use the following commands to get the SmartServer log files. To retrieve the SmartServer log files (most, but not all, built-in log files), use the commands shown in the example below to tar and copy the /var/log and then save into /var/data//var/apollo/data/logs.tar.gz. The chown command is used to change the tar file so that you can copy the tar file with the apollo login. Example: Retrieves SmartServer files sudo tar -czvf /var/apollo/data/logs.tar.gz /var/log sudo chown apollo /var/apollo/data/logs.tar.gz Use an SFTP application (like WinSCP) to save the files to your PC. You can then use 7-Zip (or a similar application) to extract the files. |
| timedatectl | Displays or sets the SmartServer platform time (time changes are not propagated to CMS). The SmartServer CMS and the SmartServer platform time and timezone may differ. See also date above. Example: timedatectl $ timedatectl Local time: Mon 2022-12-12 14:52:58 PST Universal time: Mon 2022-12-12 22:52:58 UTC RTC time: Mon 2022-12-12 22:52:58 Time zone: America/Los_Angeles (PST, -0800) System clock synchronized: yes NTP service: active RTC in local TZ: no Change SmartServer time and date timedatectl set-ntp false timedatectl set-time "2023-05-04 07:46:00" timedatectl Note: you will first have to disable the Smartserver time server first before changing the time or date. it is possible that the CMS and SmartServer platform may be out of sync. Reboot the SmartServer if you see an issue. Re-enable the SmartServer time server timedatectl set-ntp true |
| top | Provides a dynamic, real-time view of a running SmartServer system. Enter CTRL-C to exit. Idle time id shows the idle time. A large number (65.1 in the example below) for idle time indicates that the SmartServer has a lot of time extra processing time. This command can be used to determine whether the SmartServer is performing a software update using the GLPO file. When a GLPO update is in progress, you will see wget, followed by unzip, and then mender using the most resources. The CPU will go down as the update nears completion. Example: top $top
