0 byte output file when using rmdstestclient to record data

Hi guys,

We tried to run the rmdstestclient tool to record data, but our output file is 0 bytes.

09:43:30 *user*@**machine**/rhel6_x86_64> ./rmdstestclient -S DIRECT_FEED -ef ./symbols.txt -h *host* -p 14002 -ct rssl -u exb_hk_dev -obf testrecording.dat

Received Field Dictionary refresh message (Data Length: 1210615).
Received Enum Dictionary refresh message (Data Length: 123585).

We have not received any error message for this, and we do have permission on the folders where we are trying to write the file.

Please let me know if I am missing something.

Thank you,

Jayson

You can use -l <file> option to log events to a file.

    -l                 Log events to the file

The command is:

./rmdstestclient -S DIRECT_FEED -ef ./symbols.txt -h host -p 14002 -ct rssl -u exb_hk_dev -obf testrecording.dat -l log.txt

Then, please share the log.txt file.

Hello @jfajardo

Please make sure that:

DIRECT_FEED service is from which the data is requested on host ****hostname****.
The RicFile, symbols.txt, contains RICs in the correct format. Please refer to Instrument List File Format section in Quick Start Guide to Recording and Playback of Elektron Data.

Hope this help.

Thanks @pimchaya.wongrukun01!

Yeah, double-checked that the following are correct and based on RFA.cfg:
- -h = serverList from RFA.cfg, and
- -S = serviceList from RFA.cfg

Here is what my RicFile looks like:

6|BGRIM.BK 6|BGRIM.BKd 6|CENTEL.BK 6|CENTEL.BKd 6|BDMN.JK 6|TLKM.JK

I am unsure what below means but I thought that since these are non zero values, that my dat file should have anything in it at least:

Received Field Dictionary refresh message (Data Length: 1210615). Received Enum Dictionary refresh message (Data Length: 123585).

Thanks,

Jayson

From the log file, DIRECT_FEED is not a correct service. The available services on the server are:

IDN_DEV
PB-NAMR-DEV
PB-APAC
PB-EMEA
PB-APAC-DEV
PB-EMEA-DEV
PB-NAMR
MBPIPE_DEV
MBPIPE_BETS
DTS_DEV
OBPUB_DEV

For now, please try IDN_DEV (-S IDN_DEV).

If you are still unable to retrieve the data, please contact the server team for the correct service that can provide the data.
