K15569543: Producing a TMM Diagnostic Core File
K15569543: Producing a TMM diagnostic core file Support Solution Original Publication Date: Oct 22, 2019 Update Date: Aug 12, 2020 Details Description F5 Support may ask you to produce a Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) core file on the BIG-IP system to establish the state of TMM process during an event. You should perform this task only when asked to do so by F5 Support. Important: The BIG-IP system will temporarily fail to process traffic as it recovers from TMM restarting, and devices configured as a high availability (HA) pair may fail over. Additionally, on platforms with a large memory capacity, the system will respond slowly while it writes several gigabytes of data to the disk and compresses the core file. This process may take several minutes to complete. When the core file compression is complete, the unit returns to normal operation and restarts the TMMs. Environment BIG-IP F5 Support has requested a TMM diagnostic core file Adequate amount of disk space for the diagnostic core file K14403: Maintaining disk space on the BIG-IP system Cause None Recommended Actions To produce a TMM diagnostic core file, perform the following: 1. Disable the watchdog process K13539: Disabling the watchdog process to perform a core dump (11.x - 15.x) 2. Log in to the BIG-IP command line 3. Determine which tmm processes are running on the system, enter the following command: ps ax | grep -i tmm Note: Most BIG-IP platforms are enabled with Clustered Multiprocessing (CMP) and run multiple TMM 3. instances. Example: If a system has two instances of tmm running, output appears similar to the following: 5736 ? S 0:00 runsv tmm 12325 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/tmipsecd --tmmcount 12 12327 ? S 0:00 /etc/bigstart/scripts/tmm.start /var/run 12 6 0 0 --platform E101 -m -s 21853 16379 ? SLl 17:22 tmm.0 -T 6 --tmid 0 --npus 12 --platform E101 -m -s 21853 16380 ? SLl 17:31 tmm.6 -T 6 --tmid 6 --npus 12 --platform E101 -m -s 21853 17707 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep -i tmm Note: In this example, the two tmm instances are tmm.0 and tmm.6 4.

Gist of Test Program 1 Socket Class and Its Client Class This Class Hasn't
Gist of test program 1 Socket class and its client class This class hasn't been changed except that an overloaded method send has been added. This send method use a very flexible way to send contents with a customised size, two arguments are passed, I.e. a pointer pointing to the start of the block of memory, and a integer typed size. Within this block of memory to be sent, users can send any types of data with a specified size. This is the way to make a socket send method more flexible, and more important thing is to make it type independent. Based on the same spirit, a recv method has been overloaded, with only one argument. This recv method is to receive the block of data contained in a specified memory and customised size. So the pointer will be pointing the start of the block of memory that it receives. So before sending a block of data in the memory, users should know how to package the data block. Similarly, after receiving a block of data, users should know how to decode that block of data by its types and size respectively, as shown in the figure below. Data type 1 Data type 2 Pointer pointing to start Data type ... Drawing 1: package a block of data 2 ClientSocketN class In this class, the LogSend and LogRecv methods are overloaded in order to cope with the client interface for send and recv methods described above. Again, the same type of arguments are adjusted. 3 odr.h In this header file, the ODR packet contains many things as described as follows.

Multiresolution Recurrent Neural Networks: an Application to Dialogue Response Generation
Multiresolution Recurrent Neural Networks: An Application to Dialogue Response Generation Iulian Vlad Serban∗◦ Tim Klinger University of Montreal IBM Research 2920 chemin de la Tour, T. J. Watson Research Center, Montréal, QC, Canada Yorktown Heights, NY, USA Gerald Tesauro Kartik Talamadupula Bowen Zhou IBM Research IBM Research IBM Research T. J. Watson Research Center, T. J. Watson Research Center, T. J. Watson Research Center, Yorktown Heights, Yorktown Heights, Yorktown Heights, NY, USA NY, USA NY, USA Yoshua Bengioy◦ Aaron Courville◦ University of Montreal University of Montreal 2920 chemin de la Tour, 2920 chemin de la Tour, Montréal, QC, Canada Montréal, QC, Canada Abstract We introduce the multiresolution recurrent neural network, which extends the sequence-to-sequence framework to model natural language generation as two parallel discrete stochastic processes: a sequence of high-level coarse tokens, and a sequence of natural language tokens. There are many ways to estimate or learn the high-level coarse tokens, but we argue that a simple extraction procedure is sufﬁcient to capture a wealth of high-level discourse semantics. Such procedure allows training the multiresolution recurrent neural network by maximizing the exact joint log-likelihood over both sequences. In contrast to the standard log- likelihood objective w.r.t. natural language tokens (word perplexity), optimizing the joint log-likelihood biases the model towards modeling high-level abstractions. We apply the proposed model to the task of dialogue response generation in arXiv:1606.00776v2 [cs.CL] 14 Jun 2016 two challenging domains: the Ubuntu technical support domain, and Twitter conversations. On Ubuntu, the model outperforms competing approaches by a substantial margin, achieving state-of-the-art results according to both automatic evaluation metrics and a human evaluation study.
