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-COLLECTOR (nonshared)
specifies the collector type. This token has the value ZEMS-SUBJ-PCOLL
(or 1).
ZEMS-TKN-MSGR-EVENTS-DISCARDED (nonshared)
is the number of messages that the SENDVIAMESSSENGER procedure
discarded.
ZEMS-TKN-MESSENGERCPU (nonshared)
is the CPU of the SENDVIAMESSENGER procedure that discarded the event
messages.
Cause. The primary collector has been informed that the SENDVIAMESSENGER
procedure (details internal to HP) has discarded event information because it received
too many event messages (event-message flooding). The message states how many
messages were discarded. For more information about event message flooding, see
the cause for event message 518: ZEMS-EVT-COL-EVENT-DISCARDS on
page 20-18.
Effect. The messages specified were discarded.
Recovery. Try to determine the process or device that is sending the ZEMS-TKN-
MESSENGERCPU so many messages. If a process is sending too many messages—
it might be creating messages in a loop—you can stop it or place it under a debugger.
Likewise, if a device malfunctions and produces a flood of event messages, you can
stop the device and have the problem fixed.
