The Netxport Log Configuration (1) screen (#61) in Figure 13-2 “Netxport Log Configuration (1) Screen” is displayed when you press the [Modify Logging] function key at the Network Transport Configuration screen.

Figure 13-2 Netxport Log Configuration (1) Screen

[Netxport Log Configuration (1) Screen]

Use the fields and the function keys of the screen to configure logging for the subsystems represented on the screen. If the subsystem for which you want to enable logging does not appear on the first screen, press the [Next Screen] function key to go to the next Netxport Log Configuration screen. There are a total of six logging configuration screens.

Enable or disable logging classes (or accept HP-recommended defaults). Press the [Save Data] key on each screen to create or modify the data record. Verify that the data record has been created by checking that the Data flag is Y.

Fields

Console Logging

The value entered in this field specifies whether or not logging events for the subsystem and class listed beside the field will be logged to the system console. A value must be entered for each subsystem and class listed. A Y (yes) enables logging to the console, N (no) disables logging to the console.

Disk Logging

The value entered in this field specifies whether or not logging events for the subsystem and class listed beside the field will be logged to a disk file. A value must be entered for each subsystem and class listed. A Y (yes) enables logging to a file, N (no) disables logging to a file. The file name for the log file is NMLGnnnn.PUB.SYS, where nnnn is a number from 0000 to 9999. All logging classes in all subsystems are logged to this file. At each system startup, or when a file is full, the node management services subsystem (NMS) creates a new NMLGnnnn.PUB.SYS file, naming each successive logging file by incrementing nnnn. When NMLG9999.PUB.SYS is full, NMS names the next logging file NMLG0000.PUB.SYS.

The Netxport Log Configuration (2) screen (#60) in Figure 13-3 “Netxport Log Configuration (2) Screen” is displayed when you press the [Next Screen] function key from the Netxport Log Configuration (1) screen (#61) in Figure 13-2 “Netxport Log Configuration (1) Screen”.

A value must be entered for each subsystem and class listed. A Y (yes) enables logging to the console, N (no) disables logging to the console.

Disk Logging

The value entered in this field specifies whether or not logging events for the subsystem and class listed beside the field will be logged to a disk file. A value must be entered for each subsystem and class listed. A Y (yes) enables logging to a file, N (no) disables logging to a file. The file name that NMS uses is NMLGnnnn.PUB.SYS, where nnnn is a number from 0000 to 9999. All logging classes in all subsystems are logged to this file. At each system startup, or when a file is full, NMS creates a new NMLGnnnn.PUB.SYS file, naming each successive logging file by incrementing nnnn. When NMLG9999.PUB.SYS is full, NMS names the next logging file NMLG0000.PUB.SYS.

The Netxport Log Configuration (3) screen (#70) in Figure 13-4 “Netxport Log Configuration (3) Screen” is displayed when you press the [Next Screen] function key from the Netxport Log Configuration (2) screen (#60) in Figure 13-3 “Netxport Log Configuration (2) Screen”.

When NMLG9999.PUB.SYS is full, NMS names the next logging file NMLG0000.PUB.SYS.

The Netxport Log Configuration (4) screen (#68) in Figure 13-5 “Netxport Log Configuration (4) Screen” is displayed when you press the [Next Screen] function key from the Netxport Log Configuration (3) screen (#70) in Figure 13-4 “Netxport Log Configuration (3) Screen”.
