BASERULE
Base Rulesets
115415 NonStop NET/MASTER RMS Management and Operations Guide 12–7
Message Delivery
The rule instructs the message handler to replace the original message (event
number 67 from the EMS subsystem) by the following:
EMS0067 SUBDEV subdevice-name ERROR # errno
The subject is subdevice-name (for example, $ATP1.#TERM1).
Rule Actions
When a message triggers the rule, the message handler starts NCL procedure
ZRMSDEVN to perform the following:
1. Issue Guardian utility CMI commands to restart the subdevice. If the restart
operation is successful, the procedure logs the following message in the NonStop
NET/MASTER MS activity log:
RMS9902 subsystem-name SUBDEVICE device-name RECOVERY
COMPLETE. STATUS: STARTED
subsystem-name is the name of the subsystem that owns the device (for
example, ATP6100), and subdevice-name is the name of the device that has
been restarted.
2. If Step 1 fails, delay one minute and then retry. The restart operation repeats until
it is successful or the action is deleted. See “Displaying, Freezing, and Deleting
Active Subjects,” in Section 9 for information on how to delete rule actions for an
active subject.
NCL Queue
The rule actions execute in the BASERULEZSUBDEVDOWN2 NCL queue, which has
a default execution limit of 10.
Customizing the Rule
You can customize the rule by changing the execution limit of the NCL queue in which
the rule actions execute. Use the NCLQUEUE SET command from the OCS command
line to change the execution limit. See Section 3, “Planning for, Installing, and
Managing RMS,” for more information.
ZEXPANDNOTRY ZEXPANDNOTRY is a message action rule that acts in response to event number 45
from the Expand subsystem. The rule restarts a failed Expand line.
Message Delivery
The rule instructs the message handler to replace the original message (event
number 45 from the Expand subsystem) by the following:
EXP0045 EXPAND LINE line-name NOT READY, ERROR errno
line-name is the name of the failed Expand line, and errno is a Guardian
file-system error number. The subject is line-name (for example, \SDPL.$EXP02).
