To Enable Users for Individual Logging Classes 

The logging screens described previously in this chapter make it possible
to completely configure logging for all subsystems by traversing only
five screens.  However, using these screens, it is not possible to
configure logging so that messages generated by specific logging classes
are sent to an individual user's list device.

The steps below describe the method used to configure users to receive
logging messages.  Using this method, you can create a configuration that
allows messages from a single logging class, or a set of classes, to be
sent to a user's list device.

To do so, you access and update the Logging Configuration Class Data
screen according to the steps that follow.


CAUTION  Enabling users to receive logging messages can strain system
         resources.  Hewlett-Packard recommends that you use this
         capability sparingly and only for short periods of time.


Steps 

   1.  Type the path name:

       LOGGING.SUBnnnn.CLASnnnn 

       in the command window of any screen and press the [ENTER] key,
       where SUBnnnn is the subsystem ID and CLASnnnn is the class name
       of the logging class you want directed to the user's list device.
       The Logging Configuration:  Class Data screen (#67) in figure 13-7
       is displayed.

   2.  To enable console logging for this subsystem logging class, enter
       a Y in the Enable console logging?  field.  To disable console
       logging, enter an N. Be aware that changing the value in this 
       field will override the previous setting for the logging class you 
       are configuring.

   3.  To enable disk logging for this subsystem logging class, enter a Y
       in the Enable disk logging?  field.  To disable console logging,
       enter an N. Be aware that changing the value in this field will 
       override the previous setting for the logging class you are 
       configuring.

   4.  Enter up to three names, in the form user.account, in the Users
       enabled for logging fields.  If these fields already contain names
       it is because user names were previously configured using this
       screen.  If less than three user names are configured, type the
       new user name in an empty field.  If all fields are used, type
       over one of the old user names to replace it with the new user
       name.  (Note that the user name you type over will no longer be
       enabled to receive these logging messages.)

   5.  Press the [Save Data] function key to modify the data record.

   6.  Press the [Prior Screen] key to return to the screen from which
       you accessed the Logging Configuration:  Class Data screen.

Repeat the above procedure for each subsystem logging class for which you
want to enable users.


CAUTION  Enabling users to receive logging messages can strain system
         resources.  Hewlett-Packard recommends that you use this
         capability sparingly and only for short periods of time.
