Debugging a PolicyCenter server in suspended mode

When you start a PolicyCenter server in debug mode, the server completes its full startup process until it becomes ready for client connections. In this case, you cannot begin to debug the server until it is ready. However, if the behavior that you want to debug occurs earlier in the startup process, then you can start the server in suspended mode instead. In suspended mode, the PolicyCenter startup pauses as soon as its Java process is initially established. The startup process continues only once you start the Studio debugger.

• To start the PolicyCenter server in suspended mode, use one the following commands:
  • gwb runServer --debug-shmem
  • gwb runServer --debug-socket
