NetIPC logging is automatically activated at system startup. Network Services
logging is activated when the Network Services are initiated (i.e., when the
NSCONTROL START command is issued). Link manager logging and network
transport logging are activated when you initiate the network transport
(NETCONTROL START).
When you are changing a logging configuration for a specific subsystem, the
changes will normally take effect when you perform a SWITCHNMLOG UPDATE
command. In some cases, however, such as when no logging is currently active,
the subsystem may need to be deactivated and restarted. The steps that must be
taken for each subsystem are shown in Table
12-1 "Subsystem Activation/Deactivation".
Table 12-1 Subsystem Activation/Deactivation
NETCONTROL STOP (if already active)
SNACONTROL STOP;NODE=nodename (repeat until all SNA nodes are
stopped; refer to the SNA Link/iX Node Manager's Guide)
SNACONTROL START;NODE=nodename NETCONTROL START
How to use the log messages for troubleshooting is described
in the NS 3000/iX Error Messages Reference Manual.
How to format the log file for examination is described in Using
the Node Management Services (NMS) Utilities.
