1017: ZEMS-EVT-BAD-LOG
ZEMS-TKN-SUBJECT-MARK (shared)
is the standard EMS token that immediately precedes each subject token. This
event message has one subject token:
ZEMS-TKN-LOGNAME (nonshared)
is the file name of a log file. Here, it is the log file that the distributor has
declared invalid.
For descriptions of the extensible structured token ZEMS-MAP-STATUS-DIST and the
tokens ZEMS-TKN-COLNAME-ENUM and -COLNAME, see Token and Data Type
Definitions on page 18-3.
Cause. The distributor designated its source of event messages, a specified log file,
as a bad file after reading five invalid event messages.
Effect. The distributor closes the log file and attempts to access the next log file. If no
next file exists, the distributor generates another event message (ZEMS-EVT-
COLLECTOR-DISCONNECT). The distributor disconnects the collector but continues
to run. (An application can direct the distributor to reconnect the same collector after
the problem is corrected.)
Recovery. Try to determine the nature of the invalid events and where they come
from.
