(1) Notes on using the defaults

Note the following points when you are using the defaults set in the action definition file for event log trapping (ntevent.conf) and forwarding settings file (forward).

When the action definition file for event log trapping (ntevent.conf) and the forwarding settings file (forward) are used with their defaults and a JP1 event fails to transfer, the error message KAJP1037-E will be output to the event log and converted into a JP1 event. The converted JP1 event is then resent, and another transfer error will occur.
To prevent the event transfer from looping, change the setting in the action definition file for event log trapping (ntevent.conf), so that the KAJP1037-E message will not be trapped. For an example on how to set up ntevent.conf, see Action definition file for event log trapping (Windows only) in 14. Definition Files.

If the event log can no longer acquire events, a message will be output to the integrated trace log, but the JP1 event will not be output. To output the JP1 event, change the setting of the action definition file for event log trapping (ntevent.conf). For details on ntevent.conf, see Action definition file for event log trapping (Windows only) in 14. Definition Files.

(2) Notes on using JP1/AJS Windows event-log monitoring jobs

If you wish to use a JP1/AJS Windows event-log monitoring job, you must first start the event log trapping service. JP1/AJS Windows event log monitoring jobs are executed under this JP1/Base function.

Set the event log trapping action definition file (ntevent.conf) so that it contains the condition for event monitoring by JP1/AJS. This condition is the logical product of the settings defined in JP1/AJS and the settings defined in the action definition file for event log trapping (ntevent.conf). For details on Windows event log monitoring jobs, see the Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 2 Planning and Administration Guide, Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 System Design (Configuration) Guide, Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 System Design (Work Tasks) Guide, and the Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Administration Guide.
