ZTMF-TKN-EVTHDR-OPERATIONNUM
if present, contains an integer uniquely associated with the specified operation
type. This token is present only when the ZTMF-TKN-EVTHDR-
OPERATIONTYPE token is also present.
ZTMF-TKN-EVTHDR-PROCINSTNUM
if present, contains an integer identifying, in the case of multiple occurrences of the
specified process, which particular process generated the event. This token is
present only when applicable.
ZTMF-TKN-EVTHDR-COMPONENTTYPE
if present, identifies which part of TMF generated the event. The values are:
ZTMF-VAL-COMP-AUDITTRAILMGMT
ZTMF-VAL-COMP-DATAVOLMGMT
ZTMF-VAL-COMP-FILERECOVMGMT
ZTMF-VAL-COMP-PROCESSMGMT
ZTMF-VAL-COMP-ONLINEDUMPMGMT
Obtaining TMF Event Messages
When a TMF process reports a TMF event to the local EMS collector, a TMF event
message is logged to a disk file. A program can specify the file where TMF event
messages are logged. A TMF event message is obtained when:
1. A program opens an EMS consumer distributor and sends it an SPI GETEVENT
command.
2. The consumer distributor uses the SPI procedures to read the GETEVENT
command, accesses the disk file where the event message is logged, and encodes
a response.
3. The consumer distributor sends the response, including the TMF event message,
to the program that requested it.
