Event Message Descriptions
Event Message Descriptions
Every event-message description in this section contains:

The event-message display text—the text that the EMSTEXT procedure generates
if you select normal text style (For more information, see EMSTEXT Procedure on
page 15-19)

A list of unconditional tokens—tokens that are always in the message

A list of conditional tokens, if any, that are present under certain conditions

The cause of the event

The effect that the event has on the distributor and/or system

The recovery action an operator should take to respond to the event message
Token and Data Type Definitions
Distributor event messages include some tokens and values defined by SPI (those
prefixed by ZSPI), as well as some defined by EMS (those prefixed by ZEMS). The
tokens described here are common to several distributor event messages.
SPI Token Codes
These SPI tokens occur in many event messages:
ZSPI-TKN-SSID (type: ZSPI-TYP-SSID)
contains ZSPI-SSN-ZEMS, the subsystem ID for the Event Management Service.
ZSPI-TKN-PROC-ERR (type: ZSPI-TYP-ENUM)
specifies a procedure associated with the event. (The exact association depends
on the particular event and is described with the related event message.) EMS
assigns ZSPI-TKN-PROC-ERR one of these values:
ZEMS-VAL-FILTER-EVAL 20
ZEMS-VAL-ZFILAWAITIO 21
ZEMS-VAL-ZFILOPEN 22
ZEMS-VAL-ZFILPOSITION 23
ZEMS-VAL-ZFILREAD 24
ZEMS-VAL-ZFILWRITE 25
ZEMS-VAL-ZFILWRITEREAD 26
ZEMS-VAL-FILTER-READ 27
Note. The descriptions of tokens such as ZEMS-TKN-RECORD-ADDRESS or ZEMS-TKN-
BLOCKLENGTH contain implementation information that is internal to HP. Do not access log
files directly or make other explicit use of such information, which is included to help you
improve the performance of your system. HP reserves the right to change such information
without notice.
