Understanding Sybase Unwired Platform processing flow at a high level between the enterprise information system (EIS), Sybase Unwired Platform, and devices is important for troubleshooting, as well as knowing the options available for diagnosing problems at each step of the process.
This diagram shows a logical view of Sybase Unwired Platform communications between the EIS, Sybase Unwired Platform components, and device clients. The diagram also shows relay server and relay server outbound enabler (RSOE), which are optional components.
This section describes the options available for diagnosing process flow problems. Details are provided separately.
Processing component | Diagnostic option |
---|---|
Enterprise Information System (EIS) | Use EIS administrative tools to make sure the data source is available, and check logs for possible communications problems between the EIS and Unwired Server. |
Unwired Server – data services (DS) |
|
Unwired Server – core and administrative subsystem (MMS) |
|
Unwired Server – messaging subsystem |
|
Relay server and Outbound Enablers (RSOE) – if used |
|
Device clients |
If the device is offline (or cannot connect to Unwired Server), you may not be able to retrieve device logs (for example, messaging logs) from the device through Sybase Control Center. If you have physical access to the device, you may connect the device to your computer (either PC or Mac), and use certain third party software to retrieve those log files. For example, you can use iPhoneExplorer to browse through iPhone to extract logs; Windows Explorer to extract logs from Windows Mobile; and Android AVD Manager to get logs from Android. |
