Server daemon debugging

#Get daemon information

Our PXE bootet servers come with a preinstalled croit.service, our daemon. This daemon is used to detect the hardware, diagnose errors and change system configurations.

• Login to the affected host
• Check the current log output by executing journalctl -u croit.service -ef

#How to enable the debug mode

If you see crashes or errors in our croit daemon, you can enable the debug mode to get more details.

• Execute touch /opt/croit/debug
• Execute systemctl restart croit.sevice
• Check the new log output by executing journalctl -u croit.service -ef

# How to disable the debug mode

After debugging an issue, you can disable the debug logging.

• Execute rm /opt/croit/debug
• Execute systemctl restart croit.sevice
