NAME

dr_vue − diagnose and report on the TriTeal VUE installation

SYNOPSIS

dr_vue

DESCRIPTION

dr_vue is a script that checks the integrity of the X Window System files as they relate to the running of TriTeal VUE. It checks for the existence and permissions of TriTeal VUE files, as well as the status of some other files that TriTeal VUE is dependent upon to run successfully. If there are problems, or information that the user may wish to know, dr_vue issues statements informing the user to that effect.

dr_vue checks networking to see if the system can ping itself and if the system is properly named.

dr_vue checks the softbench configuration file, softinit (or $HOME/.softinit), for the default TriTeal VUE tools that should be listed. If one of them is not listed, dr_vue informs the user. dr_vue also prints the date that the file was created.

dr_vue checks $HOME to see if a .Xdefaults file exists. If one exists, dr_vue informs the user that TriTeal VUE does not use the resources in the file, but instead uses a resource database into which the user can merge defaults. dr_vue supplies the user with the proper command to merge the .Xdefaults file into the database.

dr_vue checks the current environment for the $DISPLAY variable. If it is set different than <hostname>:0, dr_vue informs the user that TriTeal VUE sets the $DISPLAY variable.

dr_vue checks the existence and permissions of TriTeal VUE files and directories. If there are missing files or directories, or improper permissions, dr_vue reports the problem.

DEPENDENCIES

dr_vue must be run on a system that contains the TriTeal Visual User Environment, Version 3.0.

ENVIRONMENT

dr_vue can be run from the command line whether or not X or TriTeal VUE is currently running. dr_vue also has an action associated with it, and it can be initiated from the General/Unsupported toolbox if the user is currently running TriTeal VUE Version 3.0.
