# HAC checks

All read-only.

## 1. Is HAC in use?

| Check | Command / file | HAC in use when … |
|---|---|---|
| Licence | `dir %TLS_ROOT_PATH%\tls\sup\hacini.sup` | the file exists (licence files are `<tool>ini.sup`) |
| Start script | `type %TLS_ROOT_PATH%\tls\com\ci_start.cmd` | it is a copy of `hacw_standby` (title *CI Server_in stand-by mode*, starts `haclog`, `lockmgr`, `isfjrn`) |
| Server number | `echo %CI_PRIM%` | 0 primary, 1 secondary, 2, 3 |
| Processes | `tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq hac*"` | `hacwdg`, `hacrec`, `haclog`, `hacmir`, `hacwagt`, `hacwitm` run |

Test system (R1.03.00): no `hacini.sup`, normal `ci_start.cmd`, `CI_PRIM` unset, no `hac*`
process — HAC not used.

## 2. Configuration

- `tls\sup\hac.sup`: read with the Setup File Editor or
  `findstr /v /b "!" %TLS_ROOT_PATH%\tls\sup\hac.sup` (active lines only). Check `MODE`,
  `HAC_HOSTS` (real host names, not `SERVER_A`…), `PRIMARY`/`SECONDARY` addresses, `IP_DEVICE`
  (a real router/switch with priority 1; **no `localhost`** in production), `START_MANUAL`
  (`NO` once commissioned), `RECOVERY_ON`, `JOURNAL_ON`, `HMF_DAYS`.
  The installed file is a template (`SERVER_A`, `192.168.1.1`, `localhost`, `START_MANUAL =
  YES`): if these are still present the pair was never configured.
- `hac.sup` must be identical on all servers (it is excluded from the mirror on purpose).
- HAC HMI: `%TLS_WAP_PATH%\cfg\jhacProperties\application.properties` — `primary=`,
  `secondary=` (addresses of every network), `port1`/`port2` (16000), `logport` (16001).
- Firewall: UDP 16000–16006, TCP 34489 (history merge), ICMP between the servers.

## 3. State and logs (running pair)

- HAC HMI: `hacw_hmi` (not in the start menu). Per server: responsive, operational status
  (Standby / Activating / Active / Deactivating), mode (Automatic / Manual), CI Server / custom /
  IP health, mirror mode and status (consistent = black text), recovery table, IP devices, log.
- Status items if configured: `<section>.OPER_MODE` (87 manual, 88 automatic), `.OPER_STAT`
  (95 active, 99 standby), `.CI_STAT`/`.IP_STAT` (90 healthy, 89 fault), `.DATA1_MODE`/
  `.DATA1_STAT` (mirror) — read with `itmval -g`.
- Logs: `%TLS_LST_PATH%\hac_log_<n>.txt` (cyclic; `hac_log_0.txt` names the current
  page), `hacmir.log`/`hacmir_old.log` (mirror), `%TLS_LOG_PATH%\hacw_standby.log`,
  `hacw_activate.log`, and `umhlog.log` (`HAC*`, `ISFJRN` messages; ISFJRN names the journal
  report `<DSSSDA>_jrn.lst` after an unclean shutdown).
- Watchdog start problems: `hacwdg -d` in a console shows initialization errors.
