BURSTSUPPRESSION
BURSTSUPPRESSION
The BURSTSUPPRESSION command directs the processing of duplicate incidents
shortly after initial incidents.
ON
enables burst suppression. The default BURSTSUPPRESSION setting is ON.
OFF
disables burst suppression.
Guidelines
•
You can use the abbreviation bs in place of BURSTSUPPRESSION.
•
Under normal circumstances, you should never disable this option. Doing so can
allow a runaway process to fill the TFDS database and event log with duplicate
events.
•
If BURSTSUPPRESSION is turned off while it is processing a TFDS RTL incident,
the message Unable to stop Burst task at this time -it's busy is
issued. The command can be successfully executed once the Burst task finishes.
CANCELBACKUP
The CANCELBACKUP command cancels a specific backup request.
bkup-req
represents an active backup request number (which corresponds to the number of
the incident record).
Guideline
Use the BACKUP STATUS command to determine the number of the active backup
requests that you want to cancel.
BURSTSUPPRESSION { ON | OFF}
Note. This feature suppresses only duplicate TFDS RTL incidents, not CPU DOWN incidents.
