Event Messages

Console Printing
SSGETTKN procedure with the ZSPI-TKN-USEDLEN token. Event messages always
begin on a word boundary for odd unstructured files.
Console Printing
TMF uses the CONSOLE-PRINT token (ZEMS-TKN-CONSOLE-PRINT), which
recommends that the event message be processed by the compatibility distributor. For
more information about this token, see the EMS Manual.
Subsystem ID
The subsystem ID in each TMF event messages is ZTMF-VAL-SSID.
Action Events
TMF does generate action events.
Buffer Size
Your program should allocate at least 512 bytes for retrieving TMF event messages.
512 bytes is the minimum buffer size.
Event Filtering
You can design event-message filters based on specific tokens, token values, or
ranges of token values:
•
The SSID token (ZSPI-TKN-SSID) distinguishes events that are reported by TMF.
•
The event number token (ZEMS-TKN-EVENTNUMBER) distinguishes event
messages reported by the TMP, TMF monitor process (TMFMON), volume
recovery processes, file recovery processes, and backout processes.
Descriptions of Event Messages
The following pages describe each event message that can be issued by TMF. The
descriptions appear in ascending order by event number; that is, in ascending order by
the ZTMF-EVT- values.
Each description includes a syntax box showing the tokens that TMF can place in the
message buffer in addition to the common tokens described in this Section , Common
Tokens in Event Messages. Tokens appear in the box if they are not present in all TMF
event messages or if their values differ from one event message to another.
Note. Information in TMF event messages is encoded in individual tokens; TMF event
messages do not use structured tokens.
