521: ZEMS-EVT-LOGGING-STOPPED
ZEMS-TKN-GENTIME, -LOGTIME, -CPU, -PROC-DESC, -PIN, -NODENUM,
and -USERID
are standard EMS tokens. For more information, see Section 14, EMS Definitions.
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 one of two values: ZEMS-SUBJ-
PCOLL (or 1) for the primary collector and ZEMS-SUBJ-ACOLL (or 2) for the
alternate collector.
ZEMS-TKN-LOGSTOPREASON (nonshared)
specifies the reason the collector stopped logging. The two main causes of this
event are expressed by the token values ZEMS-VAL-DISCFAILED and ZEMS-
VAL-NOROTATE.
ZEMS-TKN-ACTION-NEEDED (nonshared)
specifies whether some action is required (in this case because the collector
stopped logging). The token value here is TRUE.
ZEMS-TKN-ACTION-ID (nonshared)
has the value 0. The value is the same in the corresponding action-completion
message, ZEMS-EVT-FILESWITCH (514).
Cause. A primary or alternate collector cannot log event messages to a log file. This
event message is written to the log file when access to the file is restored, and it is
forwarded to any distributor waiting on a STATUS command from the collector. This
message is an action-attention message. The corresponding action-completion
message is ZEMS-EVT-FILESWITCH (514). The two main causes of this event are:
The last of the available log files in the logging subvolume is full, and the files
cannot be rotated (purged and recycled). See the fields ZCOL-MAXFILENNNN
and -ROTATEFILES in CONTROL Command (ZEMS-CMD-CONTROL)
on
page 19-34.
A problem exists with the disk device. See 515: ZEMS-EVT-COLL-DISC-FAILED
on page 20-14.
Effect. Logging stops. The primary collector eventually runs out of buffer space.
Recovery. If the maximum number of log files (given by ZCOL-MAXFILENNNN) is
already in use, you can do one of four things to resume logging:
Increase the value of ZCOL-MAXFILENNNN, using the CONTROL command or
the MAXFILE parameter of EMSCCTRL.
