Maintenance Reports 

It is important that you look at the maintenance reports when you run the
Maintenance job.  Always keep the most recent maintenance reports.  If a
problem occurs, there might be something in the past reports which gives
an indication as to the cause of the problem.  The summary reports are:

MERROR                This report details any database errors which were
                      encountered while performing the maintenance
                      activities, for example any datasets more than 85%
                      full.  This report is only printed if any database
                      errors were encountered.

MERRQUE               This is the Error Queue Summary report and it gives
                      details of messages which cannot be transmitted.
                      It is only produced if there are any such messages.

MREPORT               This is the standard maintenance report produced by
                      the Maintenance job.  It contains a series of
                      summary reports on different aspects of HP Desk,
                      such as items in the Local Database, mail nodes,
                      local users, and so on.  Use the MAILREPORT command
                      to print additional copies.

The summary reports can be quite lengthy but do not be put off by this.
They contain a lot of useful information which will:

   *   Help you to fine tune your system.

   *   Let you check on how much your system is being used.  Do you need
       to expand your database?

   *   Provide information which maybe needed by your Hewlett-Packard
       representative should you need to contact them concerning HP Desk.

There are two job control words in the third Maintenance job which affect
the maintenance reports:

   *   QUICKLIST - setting this to on suppresses MREPORT

   *   SHORTLIST - setting this to on causes any lines composed entirely
       of zeros to be suppressed when MREPORT is produced.

Reading the Maintenance Reports 

This section tells you how to use the maintenance reports to spot
potential problems with your system.

The main Maintenance reports are listed in the following order in this
chapter:

   *   MERROR report

   *   Error Queue Summary Report

   *   Item Summary Report

   *   Mail Node Summary Report

   *   Local User Summary Report

   *   User Statistics Report

   *   User Diary Usage Report

   *   Mail Node Statistics Report

   *   Local Data Set Summary Report

   *   Global Data Set Summary Report

   *   Native Data Set Summary Report

   *   Progress Messages


NOTE The Archive Tape Summary Report and the Catalog Summary Report are the two maintenance reports which relate to HP File/Library. If you do not have HP File/Library installed on your system, blank reports are produced. The HP File/Library Administration manual has further details.
MERROR Report MERROR lists the data sets which are more than 85% full and the remote nodes that have no routes configured to them. It is of use to your Hewlett-Packard representative should you have a problem with your HP Desk system. If the Maintenance job does not encounter any problems with the databases, MERROR is not produced. This will normally be the case. However, you should always look to see if MERROR has been produced, because if it has, you have a problem which requires your, or Hewlett-Packard's attention. If the MERROR report refers to corrupted items, look at the Item Summary Report. This will tell you the number of corrupt basic or composite items encountered while the Maintenance job was running and how many of these it was able to patch.
NOTE If your databases have become corrupt, under no circumstances should you attempt to patch them yourself. Always contact your Hewlett-Packard representative first.
If the MERROR report refers to one or more data sets being more than 85% full, look at both the Local and Global Data Set Summary reports. If this is the case it is likely that the database will need expanding. The information is arranged as follows: * Error number * Error message * Item number _________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | Error number 1 | | MITEMCHECK (Prim 104, Aux 44) ==> | | Could not delete item (probably corrupt) | | Item number 33670985 | | | | Error number 2 | | MITEMCHECK => | | ** IMPORTANT please take note **** ERROR ON LOCAL DATABASE | | Item number 23157145 | | | | Error number 3 | | WARNING - THE NODE DATA SET ON LOCAL HPDESK DATABASE IS 97% FULL | | | _________________________________________________________________________ Example MERROR Report Error Queue Summary Report If the Transport System is not able to transmit a mail message to another computer, it adds the message to an Error queue in the Local Database on your computer. The next time you run the Maintenance job, an Error Queue Summary Report gives information about messages in the Error queue as follows: * Item number * Error number * Error message The header of each Error queue message is written to the spoolfile MERRQUE. As soon as the Error queue has been printed, its contents are deleted from the database to recover space.
NOTE The number of items reported as being processed in the Progress Messages Report on the Error queue may well exceed those reported on the Error Queue Summary as being in error. This is because the Error queue is used as a temporary store for items coming from other systems, or items being copied from one area to another. Hence, you may see an accumulation of items not seen in the maintenance report, which is not an error condition, and is cleared automatically by the system.
It may be that a message is too big to be transmitted or exceeds the specified maximum item size on the computer for which it is destined. It is a good idea to make the limits consistent over all of the machines in an HP Desk network. You should encourage users not to try to send large packages (containing a number of lengthy text items, spreadsheets and so on) because HP Desk may not be able to transmit them. Tell them that if they send the items separately, the items will be delivered to the intended recipient much quicker. The following error messages could appear in the Error Queue Summary Report: 101 Message not transmitted - maximum transmission count exceeded A message has exceeded the maximum number of 64 transmissions allowed over the network. This indicates a fault in the configuration of your HP Desk network; for example, a loop may have been set up inadvertently. 102 Message too large to transmit - destination database too small A message has been presented to another computer for onward transmission and this computer has indicated that its database is too small to accept the message. In other words the remote computer is configured for a maximum item size which is smaller than the message you are trying to transmit. 103 Message too large to transmit - error encountered during serialization A message cannot be transmitted because it was too large. A message to be transmitted must first be copied from the Local Database to a temporary MPE file. This is called serialization. The end of the file was encountered on the temporary file before all of the message was copied. Either the message exceeded maximum allowed, or insufficient disk space was available. If the message is to be transmitted by EFT/FSC, other error messages that could appear in the Error Queue Summary Report are as follows: 104 Message not transmitted - invalid message, reply or ack 105 Message not transmitted - missing distribution list Messages 104 and 105 indicate internal problems with the operation of the system, and should be reported to your Hewlett-Packard representative. 106 Message not transmitted - private message This error will appear if a Private message is sent to an FSC gateway which is configured to prevent the passage of Private messages. Such messages are placed on the Error queue, and the event is logged to the Audit file. 108 Message not transmitted - corrupt (IMAGE chain length/item count disparity) A message cannot be transmitted because it has become corrupt and serialization failed. If this error appears in the Error Queue Summary Report, contact your Hewlett-Packard representative. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report Error Queue Summary Report Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 1 | | | | Item # Error # Error Message | | | | 608647 102 Message too large to transmit - destinationdata base too small | | | | See the error queue file (MERRQUE) for a listing of each item.'*' indicates object could not be displayed. | | | _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example Error Queue Summary Report Item Summary Report This report tells you how many corrupt items were encountered while the Maintenance job was running and how many it was able to patch. The report is only produced if the garbage collection and structure check phases of Mailmaint are performed. These are activated by setting the flag in the Garbage Collection screen of Mailconfig. If the option to switch out these phases has been selected, then this report will be blank, apart from warning messages to that effect. The Maintenance job reads all the items in the Local Database and verifies that they are consistent. That is, it checks that their actual content agrees with what they are meant to have. This is a useful check to ensure that the mail items in the Local Database are in order. The Local Database could have become corrupted due to a system or disk failure unconnected with HP Desk. This check gives you some assurance that HP Desk and mail items have not been harmed by such failures. An Item Summary Report is written to MREPORT after database verification. This report gives the number of items found to be corrupt, broken down into seven categories: * Basic items unsuccessfully deleted. * Composite items unsuccessfully deleted. * Items of unknown type unsuccessfully deleted. * Basic items patched. * Composite items patched. * Corrupt basic items. * Corrupt composite items. You are advised to restore the database from a backup copy if any of the item counts are non-zero. The file MERROR contains further information about corrupt items. The Item Summary report contains information about the garbage collection phase as follows: * Total number of items to start with. * Basic items successfully deleted. * Composite items successfully deleted. * Good basic items. * Good composite items. In practice, when an HP Desk user deletes a mail item from a particular area, say In Tray, only the pointers from that user's In Tray to the item are deleted. That user may still have pointers to the item from other areas such as Filing Cabinet, Calendar; and Work Area. Only when all local users have deleted, from all their areas, all pointers to an item will the item be removed. It is the job of the garbage collection phase of the Maintenance job to remove such unwanted items from the Local Database, freeing space for new items. If any of the item counts marked with an asterisk (*) is anything other than zero, you should issue a MAILOFF command and contact your Hewlett-Packard representative. You might need to restore the databases from the most recent backup copy. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report Item Summary Report Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 2 | | Item Count Explanation | | 2000 Total number of items to start with | | 255 Basic items successfully deleted | | 313 Composite items successfully deleted | | | | 0 Basic items unsuccessfully deleted * | | 0 Composite items unsuccessfully deleted * | | 0 Items of unknown type unsuccessfully deleted * | | 0 Basic items patched (IMAGE chain length did not equal HPDESK item count) * | | 0 Composite items patched (IMAGE chain length did not equal HPDESK item count) * | | 0 Corrupt basic items (IMAGE intrinsic error) * | | 0 Corrupt composite items (IMAGE intrinsic error) * | | | | | | 704 Good basic items | | 728 Good composite items | | * See the error file (MERROR) for more information. Non-zero counts indicate database should be recovered. | | | ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example Item Summary Report - 1 When the Item Summary Report is run and there are no users on the system the following will be true: T = BD + CD + GB + GC Where T is the total number of items to start with BD is the number of basic items successfully deleted CD is the number of composite items successfully deleted GB is the number of Good Basic items GC is the number of Good composite items Taking the values from the example table: 2000 = 255 + 313 + 704 + 728 It is possible that this total may not tally if Mailmaint has been run concurrently with user interface sessions. Do not worry - this is because users may have logged back onto HP Desk and created and deleted items. If the Garbage Collector is not configured to run, then the following report is produced. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report Item Summary Report Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 3 | | | | No wastebin emptying, garbage collection or structure checks done | | | | | ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example Item Summary Report - 2 Mail NodeSummary Report The Maintenance job examines all the mailnodes recognized by your computer and prints out the following information for each: * The mailnode name. * The mailnode type (remote or local). * The number of item headers and content sectors belonging to each mailnode queue: express (not yet implemented), urgent, normal, and deferred. * The number of messages mailed. All mail items on node queues marked for delivery to your computer are mailed. This count is recorded in the "Posted Messages" column. A large build up of messages for a mailnode should be investigated. The main points to check are: * Configuration of the Mailnode. * Availability of that Mailnode. * The Computer name referred to in the Default Route is correct. * Passwords specified are correct. Messages are placed on the deferred queue automatically if, for example, the remote system's database does not have sufficient capacity free. If messages for a particular node frequently build up on the deferred queue, both the remote database capacity and availability configuration for the local computer should be checked. If the JCW SHORTLIST is defined as non-zero in MAILMNT2.MAILJOB.HPOFFICE, lines of the report composed entirely of zeros are suppressed. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report Mail Node Summary Report Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 3 | | | | Mail Node Type Express Urgent Normal Deferred Posted Messages | | H S H S H S H S | | USCORPAD Local 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 | | USCORPLE Local 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 | | SALE1 Remote 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 | | MANF1AD Remote 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 | | MANF1PC Remote 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 | | MANF1PH Remote 0 0 6 11 6 7 0 0 0 | | EUCORP Remote 0 0 5 10 3 6 0 0 0 | | SALE2 Remote 0 0 11 21 9 13 0 0 0 | | MANF2 Remote 0 0 3 8 8 8 0 0 0 | | | | Grand Totals 0 0 11 21 9 13 0 0 0 | | | | H: number of item headers (each header equals 1 sector) | | S: number of item content sectors (1 sector equals 256 bytes) | | | _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example Mail Node Summary Report Local UserSummary Report If a user has more than a few items in their Out Tray, check that they know how to mail messages. The Maintenance job goes through all the users recorded as working on your computer and prints out the following information: * The name of the mailnode (location code and sublocation code) to which the user is assigned. * The user name. * The number of "item headers" and "content sectors" belonging to items in the user's In Tray, Out Tray, Pending Tray, Work Area, List Area, and Filing Cabinet. Each HP Desk item has an "item header" to identify the item's type, subject, creation date, and so on. The item header takes one sector of disk storage space. "Content sectors" hold the contents of basic items (message text, HP Word documents, DSG/3000 charts, and so on). By totaling the number of item headers and content sectors, you have a measure of how much disk space is being used by each HP Desk user. The combined number of Item-Header and Item-Content sectors is displayed to users each time they log onto HP Desk. When you impose either system-wide or individual disk space limits you are specifying the maximum number of Item-Header and Item-Content sectors which users can take up. The total number of item headers and content sectors for all users for a mailnode is printed out. A grand total for all mailnodes is also given. The totals are almost always greater than actual HP Desk database usage, since one copy of an item can be associated with more than one user, but is counted once for all of the users. All messages still in users' Out Trays, marked as MAILED are mailed again. This is to make sure that all messages are presented for transmission to the Mailroom despite any failure. The total number of such "re-posted" messages is recorded at the end of this report. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report Local User Summary Report Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 4 | | Mail Node User Name In Out Pending File Work List Line Total | | H S H S H S H S H S H S H S | | USCORPAD BINFORD,JOEL 9 27 3 11 3 6 125 521 2 35 10 33 152 633 | | DELIVERY,GENERAL 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 | | EATON,SANDY 46 152 0 0 0 0 28 136 5 29 1 6 80 323 | | PAICE,CLARE 56 297 0 0 4 812 0 0 0 0 2 10 62 1119 | | YANO,BOB 3 10 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 9 5 19 | | Mail Node Totals 114 486 3 11 7 818 155 657 7 64 15 58 301 2094 | | | | USCORPLE BENTHAM,LIZETTE 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 | | CARLSON,KRISTA 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 | | DELIVERY,GENERAL 12 34 0 0 8 27 88 326 0 0 3 17 111 404 | | PECK,JOANNE 12 40 0 0 15 52 154 968 0 0 8 36 189 1096 | | USVOLK,DAVID 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 | | Mail Node Totals 81 411 0 0 17 143 210 960 6 183 14 51 328 1748 | | Grand Totals 219 971 3 11 47 1040 611 2911 13 247 40 162 933 5342 | | Number of out tray messages reposted: 0 | | H: number of item headers (each header equals 1 sector) | | S: number of item content sectors (1 sector equals 256 bytes) | | | ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example Local User Summary Report User Statistics Report The User Statistics report gives, for each user on each local mailnode configured, a report on the number of HP Desk messages sent and received since the Maintenance Program was last run (date and time given in the Data Set Summary report), and the total number of messages sent and received since the statistics were last initialized. For a new HP Desk installation, this will help you identify which users are reluctant to use the system and who might need further coaching on the advantages of using HP Desk. The report shows for each user: * The numbers of messages sent and received since the last Maintenance run. These are in the columns headed "C", under "Sent" and "Received" respectively. * The cumulative totals of messages sent and received since the statistics were last initialized. These are in the columns headed "T", under "Sent" and "Received" respectively. * The total number of times a user has signed on to HP Desk since the statistics were last reset. * The date and time of the last sign on or sign off. The T counts can be initialized to zero by streaming MRESET.MAILJOB.HPOFFICE. This job will reset all the T counts to zero, for both this report and the Mail Node Statistics report. This job requires exclusive access to the database, for security and speed. The cumulative total of all messages transmitted to a mailnode (the T column) since the statistics were last initialized, may decrease if a user is deleted from a mailnode. This is because the cumulative totals are obtained by adding the cumulative totals for each individual user. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report User Statistics Report Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 5 | | Mail Node User Name Received Sent Total No of Sign On Last Signon/Signoff | | * C T C T | | USCORP BINFORD,JOEL 4 12 1 8 20 05/04/92 1605 | | DELIVERY,GENERAL 0 1 0 0 3 05/04/92 1310 | | EATON,SANDY 2 6 5 11 22 05/04/92 2007 | | PAICE,CLARE 3 5 3 10 15 05/04/92 1631 | | YANO,BOB 6 15 2 5 14 06/06/92 0900 | | Mail Node Totals 15 39 11 34 74 | | | | USCORPLE BENTHAM,LIZETTE 0 5 0 1 3 12/06/92 0857 | | CARLSON,KRISTA 0 0 0 0 0 12/06/92 1403 | | DELIVERY,GENERAL User has never signed on. | | PECK,JOANNE 5 18 6 12 10 12/07/92 0841 | | USVOLK,DAVID 5 19 6 10 5 12/07/92 1811 | | Mail Node Totals 15 47 18 30 32 | | Grand Totals 35 112 31 70 130 | | *C: count since last Maintenance Program run | | *T: cumulative total | | | ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example User Statistics Report User DiaryUsage Report The User Diary Usage Report gives, for each user on each local mailnode configured, a report on the number of Calendar entries and insertions they have. The earliest date and the latest date for which a user has an entry are also listed. An entry can be inserted in the Calendar at more than one date. The "No. of insertions" column includes all the entries plus any multiple insertions of an entry. You can monitor the usage of the Calendar facility and identify users who are using large amounts of storage, from the information listed on this report. If your databases are short of space, look through this report and note Min Date for each user. If Min Date is more than a week ago, ask all users to delete everything in their diaries from Min Date to Yesterday. If you have HP Schedule installed on your system, you can also use this report to ensure that all users are entering their appointments in their Calendars. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report User Diary Usage Report Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 6 | | | | Mail Node User Name No of No of Max Min | | entries insertions Date Date | | USCORPAD BINFORD,JOEL 10 10 12/31/92 01/01/91 | | DELIVERY,GENERAL 0 0 The user's diary is empty. | | EATON,SANDY 15 20 05/01/92 04/03/91 | | PAICE,CLARE 7 7 12/12/92 02/08/91 | | YANO,BOB 11 11 12/12/92 12/08/91 | | Mail Node Totals 43 48 | | USCORPLE BENTHAM,LIZETTE 8 11 03/26/92 01/11/91 | | CARLSON,KRISTA 0 07 The user's diary is empty. | | DELIVERY,GENERAL 0 0 The user's diary is empty. | | PECK,JOANNE 0 0 The user's diary is empty. | | USVOLK,DAVID 2 2 12/08/92 11/21/91 | | Mail Node Totals 21 21 | | Grand Totals 72 80 | | | _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example User Diary Usage Report Mail NodeStatistics Report The Mail Node Statistics Report gives, for each mailnode configured for your computer, a report on the number of messages transmitted to each mailnode.

This part is applicable to the three data sets that are used to hold item information. * The date and time of the two most recent runs of the Maintenance job. The information in the Local Data Set Summary Report should be checked to monitor how full the various data sets are, and at what rate they are being filled. You can then make a decision as to whether or not you need to enlarge the Databases. When a data set is greater than 85% full the entry on the Local Data Set Summary Report is marked with an asterisk. In addition, a message appears in the Progress Messages report (see later). In particular look at the maximum and current sizes for Item-Header, Item-Structure, and Item-Content data sets. To ensure an efficient HP Desk system, it is recommended that you keep the size of these three data sets to 60% of capacity at most, particularly the Item-Header data set. As the size of a data set begins to exceed 60%, it takes HP Desk an increasingly longer time to perform tasks because of the way in which items are stored in the databases by IMAGE. It is a good idea to monitor the growth of your data sets regularly and expand the databases before the size of the data sets can affect HP Desk performance. Details of how to expand your databases are in Chapter 18 . Remember that some data sets, such as Item-Header and Item-Content, increase to their maximum capacity through HP Desk usage. Others, such as Local-User and Node, only need expanding when you add users, locations and so on to your HP Desk system. If disk space limits (that is limits on the size of users' Filing Cabinets and Work Areas) have not been introduced, you should consider doing so if the data sets are growing at a significant rate. If disk space limits are already set, you should consider gradually reducing them. However, if you do reduce the disk space limits you should inform the users first. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report Local Data Set Summary Report Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 8 | | | | Data Set Name Previous Set Usage Current Set Usage Maximum Set Capacity Set Usage Change | | | | LOCAL-CONTROL N/A 1 1 N/A | | LOCAL-USER N/A 16 50 N/A | | DESIGNATE N/A 7 10 N/A | | NAME-INDEX N/A 13 50 N/A | | NODE N/A 3 10 N/A | | USER-XREF N/A 16 66 N/A | | ITEM-HEADER 487 487 2503 0 | | ITEM-STRUCTURE 529 529 2030 0 | | ****ITEM-CONTENT 985 1384 1500 0 | | COMPUTER N/A 0 4 N/A | | ROUTE N/A 0 4 N/A | | ENTRY-NAME-INDEX N/A 30 150 N/A | | ENTRY-INDEX N/A 127 500 N/A | | USER-DATE N/A 68 199 N/A | | OWNS N/A 120 530 N/A | | KEYWORD N/A 50 513 N/A | | MAIL-ITEM-ENTRY N/A 18 100 N/A | | MAIL-ITEM-SUBJ N/A 91 210 N/A | | SIMPLE-ENTRY N/A 55 252 N/A | | INSERTION N/A 299 790 N/A | | FSC-PROGRAM N/A 0 16 N/A | | NODE/NODE N/A 0 24 N/A | | **** DATASET MORE THAN 85% FULL. | | | | Date and time of previous maintenance program run: 26/07/92 1040 | | Date and time of this maintenance program run: 27/07/92 1043 | | | | | ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example Local Data Set Summary Report Global Data Set Summary Report The Global Data Set Summary Report contains statistics showing the number of entries currently being used in each data set in the Global Database, and the maximum number of entries.

In addition, a message appears in the Progress Messages report (see later). ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report Global Data Set Summary Report Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page #9 | | | | Data Set Name Current Set Usage Maximum SetCapacity | | | | COUNTRY 1 2 | | | | LOCATION-INDEX 2 5 | | | | NODE 3 10 | | | | NAME-INDEX 15 100 | | | | GLOBAL-USER 26 120 | | | | NODE-XREF 3 10 | | | | LOCATION 2 6 | | | | NODE-NODE-INDEX 1 30 | | | | GATEWAY-INDEX 0 5 | | | | FOREIGN-INDEX 0 20 | | | | FOREIGN-ALIAS 0 20 | | | | RESOURCE-INDEX 1 30 | | | | RESOURCE 1 10 | | | ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example Global Data Set Summary Report Native Data Set Summary Report Where a Native Database is configured, a Native Data Set Summary Report will be provided showing the number of entries currently being used in each data set, and the maximum number of entries. The information in the Native Data Set Summary Report should be checked to monitor how full the various data sets are, and at what rate they are being filled. You can then make a decision as to whether or not you need to enlarge the Databases. When a data set is greater than 85% full the entry on the Native Data Set Summary Report is marked with an asterisk.

To ensure that these messages are not lost they are included on the last page of MREPORT. If any data set on either HP Desk database is over 85% full, a message of the following form is displayed: WARNING - THE ITEM-HEADER DATA SET ON THE LOCAL HPDESK DATABASE IS 89% FULL. PLEASE CONSIDER EXPANDING THE DATABASE. The first message of the progress messages is "Databases are now locked". This message is produced when the Maintenance job has got control of the Databases and has them for exclusive access. The reason for this is that there can be a delay between storing the Databases and starting up of the Maintenance job. The message just confirms that everything has been performed correctly to this point. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report Progress Messages Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 11 | | | | Databases are now locked | | | | Error queue processing done (total of 6 items processed) | | | | Structure check done (0 corrupt items) | | | | Garbage collected (568 items deleted) | | | | Mail Node processing done (7 mailnodes) | | | | User processing done (14 users) | | | | Archive Summary complete (10 tapes found) | | | | Catalog Summary complete (114 catalogs found) | | | | Local control updated | | | ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example Progress Message - 1 If the garbage collection and structure check phase of Mailmaint has been switched out, then the report would look like the following: ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | | | | | HPDESK (B.05.00 ) Maintenance Report Progress Messages Date 27/07/92 Time 1043 Page # 11 | | | | Databases are now open but not locked | | | | Error queue processing done (total of 6 items processed) | | | | No wastebin emptying, garbage collection or structure checks done | | | | Mail Node processing done (7 mailnodes) | | | | User processing done (14 users) | | | | Archive Summary complete (10 tapes found) | | | | Catalog Summary complete (114 catalogs found) | | | | Local control updated | | | ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Example Progress Message - 2
