Viewing the ASAP Event Log

Example B

Example B defines a second set of processes that report statistics for a selected

regional group of nodes to the LA node:

SET COLLECT \LA !define collection node

SET DB $DATA2.ASAPDB.DB !define database location on \LA

SET RATE 5 !define sample interval

SET DISK ON !Enable disk reporting

SET ID $LA !ID for second process set

START \LA COLLECT !Start collector on \LA

START \LA !Start \LA monitor and SGPs

START \SANFRAN !Start \SanFran monitor and SGPs

START \SEATTLE !Start \Seattle Monitor and SGPs

START \DALLAS !Start \Dallas monitor and SGPs

Viewing the ASAP Event Log

By default, the Monitor and Collect or processes on each node automatically create

and maintain a small log file named $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.ASAPLOG. In addition, log

messages are written to the operator or Viewpoint console, $0. You can enter the

ASAP LOG command to display recent ASAPLOG messages.

ASAP HELP ERROR displays a description of all log error and information message

formats. In general, log messages are informational. ASAP should recover from all

situations except a total node failure.

This is the output from the ASAP event log file:

The PID column in the INFO display shows the name of the ASAP process. When an

ASAP process name ends with an M, it indicates the ASAP Monitor. When it ends with

an S, it indicates the ASAP Collector. When it ends with a number or letters A through

F, it is a standard SGP. In the previous example, H represents the optional APP SGP,

H1 represents the ASAPX Monitor, J represents the Disk SGP, and Parms can be

Guardian errors or other ASAP error numbers. Report these messages when

submitting problem reports against ASAP.

Some common log messages on Remote nodes when the Monitor processes indicate

that the Collect process is not available are:

01/02/28 1121:01 1001 ZOOM ERR MONITOR -> COLLECT, fe: 14

01/02/28 1122:01 1003 ZOOM ERR Send to COLLECT error: 201
