ViewPoint Event Messages
ViewPoint Event Logging
ViewPoint reports errors detected during the display of screens on a terminal on the 
advice line of the terminal. However, ViewPoint reports errors detected by servers that 
run in an asynchronous mode to terminal operation as event messages through the Event 
Management Service (EMS). An example of such a server is the garbage collection 
server (ZVPT-GARB-COLL); this server runs at a scheduled time and performs 
database maintenance.
ViewPoint builds the event messages in an SPI message in a format specified by EMS 
and sends the message to event collector $0 on the system where the ViewPoint 
PATHMON process is running. The event is sent using the file-system WRITEREAD 
procedure.
The events that ViewPoint can report are described on the following pages. The values 
in parentheses are the event numbers.
ZVPT-EVT-IO-ERROR (1)
The garbage collection server or the event collection server generates this event when 
either server encounters an irrecoverable I/O error.
