1.2.1 System failure log
System failure log refers to the information logged for system problems. This information is used by system administrators.
System failure log consists of the common message log and the integrated trace log.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Common message log
The common message log is output to the Windows event log file or the syslog file.
(2) Integrated trace log
The integrated trace log contains the trace information that is output by different programs via Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library (HNTRLib2). This information is stored in output files. The integrated trace log contains more detailed messages than those provide by the common message log.
The integrated trace log is output to integrated trace log files.
For details about how to obtain the integrated trace log, see the JP1/Base User's Guide.
The integrated trace log is output to the following files by default:
- In Windows:
-
system-drive\Program Files (x86)#1, #2\HITACHI\HNTRLib2\spool\hntr2{1|2|3|4}.log
- In UNIX:
-
/var/opt/hitachi/HNTRLib2/spool/hntr2{1|2|3|4}.log
- #1
-
For 32-bit versions of Windows, replace Program Files (x86) with Program Files.
- #2
-
For JP1/AJS3 - Web Console, replace Program Files (x86) with Program Files.
You can specify the type of system failure log to be collected in the integrated trace log. To do this, use the jajs_config command to specify the type of information to be logged in the HNTRLOGLEVEL environment setting parameter.
You can use a text editor to read the integrated trace log files. The following figure shows an example of output to an integrated trace log file.
The following tables describe the headers and output items in the integrated trace log file.
Header |
Explanation |
---|---|
OS information |
The OS on which Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library (HNTRLib2) is running. |
Host name |
The name of the host on which Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library (HNTRLib2) is running. |
Time zone |
|
Time HNTRLib2 started |
The time that Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library (HNTRLib2) started |
Output item |
Explanation |
---|---|
Number (4 digits) |
The sequence number of the trace record. A number is assigned for each process for which information is logged. |
Date (10 bytes) |
The date the trace was collected: yyyy/mm/dd (year/month/day) |
Time (12 bytes) |
The local time the trace was collected: hh:mm:ss.sss (hour:minutes:seconds.milliseconds) |
Application name (16 bytes or less) |
The name of an application (application identification name). JP1/AJS3 generally outputs the following application names:
|
pid |
The process ID assigned by the OS. A pid is output as a hexadecimal number. |
tid |
The thread ID that identifies a thread. A tid is output as a hexadecimal number. |
Message ID |
A message ID appearing in 1.2.1 Format of output messages in the manual JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Messages. The message IDs in this log are only those used by JP1/AJS3. |
Message text |
The text of a message output to the integrated trace log. The message texts in this log are those output by JP1/AJS3. |
- Important
-
The time that information is recorded in the integrated trace log is the time in the time zone to which the source process belongs. If a user changes the value of the TZ environment variable and then starts a service or executes a command, the time of log information might not match the time zone set for the OS.
