OSM Service Connection User's Guide (G06.30+)

Diagnostic events are collected for a period of 12 hours (configurable through OSMCONF
file) before and three hours after the specified date and time.
●
Diagnostic Data files, such as ZZAAxxxx, ZZSNxxxx, and ZZPSxxxx, are collected for a
period of three hours starting from the specified date and time.
●
The volume in which this diagnostic data is collected is specified by the Set Data Collection Volume
action.
Disable Advanced Storage Configuration
Disables the system's Advanced Storage Configuration State attribute. In the disabled state, no
advanced storage configuration changes, such as Flexible Disk Configuration or configuration of
ESS disks, can be made on the system.
Enable Advanced Storage Configuration
This action changes the system's Advanced Storage Configuration State attribute to Enabled. This
state must be enabled before you can configure ESS disks in SCF or perform Flexible Disk
Configuration.
Enable/Disable Automatic Data Collection
Use to enable or disable automatic collection of data for failed system resources. The current state for
the system is indicated by the Automatic Data Collection State attribute. If enabled, when a hardware
failure occurs, data is saved to the location specified by the Set Data Collection Volume action. The
Set Days to Persist for Diagnostic Data action determines how long the files are retained on the
system before being deleted.
Extend Problem Incident Report Suppression Time
Extends the duration of suppression by a specified amount of time (in minutes). This action fails if
the suppression was not enabled at that time.
Rediscover System
Causes OSM to refresh and reanalyze all components within the system.
Rediscover System and ServerNet Cluster
Causes OSM to refresh and reanalyze all components within the system and the ServerNet cluster.
Set Data Collection Volume
Used to specify a volume in which automatic or manual data collection will take place. The volume
should be something other than $SYSTEM to avoid the possibility of filling that volume with
collected data.
