2.4.8 Reattempting to connect to the event service (log file trap)
If a log file trap cannot establish a connection to the event service, whether the log file trapping function tries again depends on the contents of the action definition file for log file trapping. To attempt a connection to the event service, set the parameter separately for specific log file traps in the action definition file for log file trapping. If the log file trapping function cannot connect to the event service after retrying for the specified number of times, it fails to start, or stops if already active. If you do not specify a retry count for a particular log file trap in the action definition file for log file trapping, attempts to establish a connection will be made three times at 10-second intervals.
The JP1 events converted during a retry are saved in the system up to a specified maximum number. When this maximum is reached, all subsequent JP1 events are deleted.
When successfully connected, the trap starts sending the retained JP1 events to the event service in the order in which they were held. Notification that a connection has been established is also sent as a JP1 event. For details on JP1 events, see 17.3.1(13) Details about event ID 00003A10.
