HP Record Log Profile
Version 1.1.0 19
9.2 Identify the Logs by Name
Select the HP_CommonRecordLog instances which Name property corresponds to the given name.
9.3 Actions based on HP_CommonRecordLog.LogPercentFull
Management application can check the LogPercentFull and determine when to clear the log. If 85% of
the log is full and no new events were received within next two minutes, then the management application
clears the log. When the log is over 95% full, then the management application clears the log.
9.4 Actions based on HP_CommonRecordLog.LastLogClearedTime
Logs can be cleared from various places, like Management Processor pages, Management Application or
manually by a user from a telnet session etc. Based on the time when the log was cleared, applications
can synchronize with the latest state.
9.5 HP_CommonRecordLog.LogBackUpDays
If a ClearLog() method also saves a soft copy of the log, LogBackupDays may be used to represent the
time a previously saved soft copy is retained. The most recent soft copy is saved indefinitely.
9.6 Browse through the Log Records of the Log
Iterate through all the instances of HP_CommonLogEntry that are associated through
CIM_LogManagesRecord to the given instance of HP_CommonRecordLog and sort them based on the
InstanceID.
Another option. Find the HP_CommonRecordLog of interest and save the InstanceID. Perform a query
for HP_CommonLogEntry instances, using a filter with the LogInstanceID previously saved, to retrieve all
the instances of HP_CommonLogEntry managed by the RecordLog identified by the LogInstanceID.
If it is possible that there are a large number of instances that can be returned, based on the
HP_CommonRecordLog.MaxNumberOfRecords or CurrentNumberOfRecords, find the
HP_CommonRecordLog of interest and save the InstanceID. Perform a query, using a filter with the
LogInstanceID previously saved and a range of CreationTimeStamp values based on
HP_CommonRecordLog.TimeOfLastChange, to retrieve a subset of the instances of
HP_CommonLogEntry managed by the RecordLog identified by the LogInstanceID.
9.7 Sort the Log Record Based on the CreationTimestamp of the Log Entry
Iterate through all the instances of HP_CommonLogEntry that are associated through
CIM_LogManagesRecord to the given instance of HP_CommonRecordLog representing the log record.
Sort the instances of HP_CommonLogEntry based on CreationTimestamp property value in LIFO order.
9.8 Delete the Log Entry
Select the instance of HP_CommonLogEntry that represents the log entry. Execute DeleteInstance
operation on the selected instance of HP_CommonLogEntry. If the instrumentation does not support
individual deletion, the DeleteInstance operation will return a value indicating Not Supported.
