You can run EVLOG using default options or you can run EVLOG
interactively to select and modify specific options. Instructions
for each run mode follow. The options are described in the remainder
of this chapter. To Run EVLOG Using Default Options | |
Follow these steps to format a host-based X.25 log file using
the default options. Copy the file that you want to format to a different file
name. (Hewlett-Packard recommends that you treat log files as read-only
files. Copying to a new file name allows you to format the new file
without modifying the original log file.) At the MPE/iX prompt, enter the command: :evlog logfilename where logfilename is the name of
the file created in step 1.
These steps will cause the entire log file to be formatted
with default options. To Run EVLOG Interactively | |
Follow these steps to format a host-based X.25 log file, to
select options: Copy the file that you want to format to a different file
name. (Hewlett-Packard recommends that you treat log files as read-only
files. Copying to a new file name allows you to format the new file
without modifying the original log file.) At the MPE/iX prompt, enter either of the following
commands: :evlog or :evlog logfilename,n where logfilename is the name of
the file created in step 1 and n
is any non-zero PARM. For example :evlog myfile,2 The following display will appear: File type = 7 (Version = A1200D00) |

To Select Formatting OptionsTo select the formatting option that you want to change when
running EVLOG interactively, type the option number at the prompt.
EVLOG will then prompt you to enter additional information. The
information required depends on the option selected. Brackets displaying
the current setting of the option are included in the prompt. Each
of the options is described, each description includes an example
of the option's use. User input is bold. | | | |  | NOTE: The formatter will use default values for any options
not specified by the user. The default values are listed in parentheses
beside each of the options. | | | | |
Use this option to open an event log file, if you did not
specify a log file name on the command line. Whenever a file is
opened, the File
option will reflect file name and the number of records in the file.
In the following example, the log file logfile1,
contains 15 records. Enter number of option or <CR> to select current options: 1 |
Event log name []? logfile1 |
0 — Set all options back to their default values
1 — File (logfile1, 15 records) 2 — Records (1..0)

Use this option to select which record numbers to display.
In the following example, the user chooses to display records 2
through 5 of
the opened log file. Notice that the Records
option displays the records that were selected. Enter number of option or <CR> to select current options: 2 |
First record [1]? 2
Last record [15]? 5 |
0 — Set all options back to their default values
1 — File (logfile1, 15 records) 2 — Records (2..5)

Use this option to restrict the records displayed to those
of a specific event type. In the following example, the user chooses
to display only DTC events. Following the selection, the Event types
option displays a 3,
to signify the selection of event type 3,
DTC events. (Note that not all of the event types are meaningful
for log files on host-based systems.) Enter number of option or <CR> to select current options: 3 |
0 — ALL
1 — PC
2 — PC/DTC
3 — DTC |
0 — Set all options back to their default values
1 — File (logfile1, 15 records) 2 — Records (2..5)
3 — Event types (3)

Use this option to restrict the records displayed to those
of a particular subsystem. In the following example, the user selects
the NMP subsystem. Following the selection, the Subsystem
option displays a 4,
to signify the selection of subsystem 4,
NMP. (Note that not all of the subsystem types are meaningful for
log files on host-based systems.) Enter number of option or <CR> to select current options: 4 |
0 — All 4 — NMP 8 — OS

Use this option to specify a range of event codes to be displayed.
To specify the codes, you may enter either the event code numbers
or the mnemonics listed in the prompt display. (The Options
display will list the event code numbers whether you select by number
or by mnemonic.) In the following example, the user chooses X.25
events by entering the mnemonic X25.
Notice that the event code numbers are shown in the resulting display. Enter number of option or <CR> to select current options: 5 |
Event code mnemonics (use for First event code if desired: |
COM (Common events) = 1 — 511
AOS (AOS events) = 512 — 1023
MGR (MANAGER) = 1024 — 1279
LAN = 1280 — 1525
AFCP = 1536 — 1791

Option 6: Logical Channel Identifier (LCI)Use this option to restrict the records displayed to those
for a specific Logical Channel Identifier. In the following example,
the user presses [RETURN] to
accept the default of displaying all records. Enter number of option or <CR> to select current options: 6 |
Logical Channel Identifier (LCI) (1-256 0 = ALL) [ALL]? |
0 — Set all options back to their default values

Option 7: Virtual Port Number (VPN)Use this option to restrict the records displayed to those
for a particular virtual port number (VPN). (Some PAD events contain
the VPN but not the corresponding LCI; some X.25 events contain
the LCI but not the VPN. However, some X.25 events contain both,
so usually you can logically tie the two together.) In the following
example, the user presses [RETURN]
to accept the default of displaying all records. Enter number of option or <CR> to select current options: 7 |
Logical Channel Identifier (LCI) (1—255 0 = ALL) [ALL]? |
0 — Set all options back to their default values
1 — File (logfile1, 15 records) 2 — Records (2..5)

Option 8: Time/Offset FormatThere are four types of timestamps in event log records. They
are: - HOST time
The time the event was logged on the host (HP 3000).
Found in event type 3
(DTC). - PC time
The time the event was logged on the OV DTC MGR
PC. (This type is not meaningful for log files created on systems
using host-based network management.) - DTC CPU time
The time the event was sent from the DTC. Found
in event type 3
(DTC). - DTC SNP time
The time the event occurred on the SNP. Found in
event type 3
(DTC)
Use this option to choose whether one of these timestamp types
will be displayed under the column labeled "Time/offset"
or whether the offset will be from the beginning of the file. In
the example that follows, the user chooses to display the time that
events were logged on the host. Enter number of option or <CR> to select current options: 8 |
1 — HOST
2 — PC
3 — DTC CPU
4 — DTC SNP
5 — Record offset |
0 — Set all options back to their default values
1 — File (logfile1, 15 records) 2 — Records (2..5)

Use this option to specify a range of time to be displayed.
This option is available only for the HOST time. In the following
example, the user selects a time range from October 4 through October
5 of 1991 by responding to the series of prompts. Note that, as
usual, the current settings are displayed in brackets in the prompts. Enter number of option or <CR> to select current options: 9 |
