OpenVMS System Management Utilities Reference Manual

Controls whether informational messages that specify the number of entries selected and rejected for each input file are sent to SYS$OUTPUT. By default, these messages are not displayed.

Format

/[NO]LOG

Example

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/LOG ERRLOG.OLD;5
      

In this example, informational messages generated about ERRLOG.OLD;5 are sent to SYS$OUTPUT.

On Alpha systems, generates a report consisting of event log entries that occurred on the specified CPU.

Format

/MODEL= (hexadecimal-value[,...])

Parameter

hexadecimal-value

Specifies a value obtained from the system console.

In an OpenVMS Cluster environment, you can specify a hexadecimal value for each member. If you specify more than one hexadecimal value, you must specify a comma-separated list of values that is enclosed in parentheses.

Example

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/MODEL=415 ERRLOG.SYS 
      

In this example, the output consists of only those entries that were logged for the system with a model type of 00000415 (hexadecimal).

Generates a report consisting of error log entries for specific nodes in an OpenVMS Cluster system.

Format

/NODE= (node-name[,...])

Parameter

node-name

Specifies the names of one or more OpenVMS Cluster members. Names cannot exceed six characters. If more than one node name is entered, you must specify a comma-separated list of node names that is enclosed in parentheses.

Example

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/NODE=(ORANGE,NASSAU) -
_$ SYS$SYSROOT:[SYS*.SYSERR]ERRLOG.SYS) 
      

In this example, the OpenVMS Cluster system consists of members BROOME, NASSAU, ORANGE, and PUTNAM. The output contains only those entries that were logged for nodes NASSAU and ORANGE.

Specifies the output file for the error log report.

Format

/OUTPUT [=file-spec]

Parameter

file-spec

Specifies the output file selected for the error log report. Refer to the OpenVMS User's Manual for details on specifying files. If you omit the output file specification, output is directed to SYS$OUTPUT.

Description

If you omit the /OUTPUT qualifier, output is directed to SYS$OUTPUT. If you specify /OUTPUT=file-spec, the selected output file contains the error log report. If you omit the device or directory specification, the current device and default directory are used. If you omit the file name, the file name of the input file is used. If you omit the file type, the default file type is .LIS.

Do not use /OUTPUT with the /BINARY qualifier.

Example

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/OUTPUT=ERROR_LOG.LIS ERRLOG.OLD;72
      

In this example, the ouput file ERROR_LOG.LIS contains entries generated from ERRLOG.OLD;72.

Used in conjunction with the /INCLUDE qualifier to generate, in a hexadecimal longword format, a report that consists of device register information.

Format

/REGISTER_DUMP

Description

Use the /REGISTER_DUMP qualifier to get a report that lists the hexadecimal contents of the device registers for the device specified by the /INCLUDE qualifier. The /INCLUDE qualifier must be used with the /REGISTER_DUMP qualifier.

The /REGISTER_DUMP qualifier reports register contents for memory, device error, and device timeout entries. No translation is available of any of the device register information.

Do not use /REGISTER_DUMP with the /BINARY qualifier.

Example

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/INCLUDE=DB/REGISTER_DUMP ERRLOG.OLD;72
      

In this example, the output is in the format of a REGISTER_DUMP report containing entries that apply only to the DB device.

Allows you to specify the name of a file that will contain binary records for rejected entries.

Format

/REJECTED [=file-spec]

Parameter

file-spec

Specifies the name of the file that is to contain the rejected entries. If you do not specify an output file, the rejected entries are written to the file ERRLOG.REJ in your current directory.

Description

The /REJECTED qualifier creates a binary file that contains copies of the original binary error log entry. If the error log entry is rejected because the command line also specifies an interval (/SINCE, /BEFORE, or /ENTRY qualifier) or a filter (/INCLUDE or /EXCLUDE qualifier), the entry is written to the specified file.

Rejected entries are not translated because they fall into one of the following categories:

• All entries specified with the /EXCLUDE qualifier
• All entries not specified with the /INCLUDE qualifier
• Any entry that does not occur within the period specified by the /SINCE and /BEFORE qualifiers
• Any entry that is not in the range of entries specified by the /ENTRY qualifier

If you specify /REJECTED=file-spec, the output file contains image copies of the rejected records. If you omit the device or directory specification, the current device and default directory are used. If you omit the file name, the file name of the input file is used. If you omit the file type, the default file type is .REJ.

Example

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/INCLUDE=MTA0/REJECTED=REAL_ERRS.DAT ERRLOG.OLD;5
      

In this example, the output file REAL_ERRS.DAT contains image copies of all entries from ERRLOG.OLD;5, with the exception of those entries that apply to the MTA0 device.

On VAX systems, generates a report consisting of error log entries that occurred on the specified CPU.

Format

/SID_REGISTER= (hexadecimal-value[,...])

Parameter

hexadecimal-value

Specifies a value obtained from the system ID register. Use the $GETSYI system service to obtain this value, which is unique to each system. The OpenVMS System Services Reference Manual describes the $GETSYI system service.

In an OpenVMS Cluster environment, you can specify a hexadecimal value for each member. If you specify more than one hexadecimal value, you must specify a comma-separated list of values that is enclosed in parentheses.

Example

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/SID_REGISTER=02006148 ERRLOG.OLD;72
      

In this example, the output consists of only those entries that were logged for the system with an ID of 02006148 (hexadecimal).

/SINCE

Specifies that only those entries dated later than the stated date and time are to be selected for the report.

Format

/SINCE [=date-time]

Parameter

date-time

Limits the error report to those entries dated later than the specified time. If you specify /SINCE without a date and time, the default is TODAY. If you omit the /SINCE qualifier, all entries are processed.

Description

Only absolute date and time specifications are valid. Refer to the OpenVMS User's Manual for details on specifying times.

Example

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/SINCE=19-APR-1998:15:00 ERRLOG.OLD;56
      

In this example, the error log report generated from ERRLOG.OLD;56 contains entries that have been logged since 15:00 on April 19, 1998.

Generates run-time statistical information.

Format

/STATISTICS

Description

Use the /STATISTICS qualifier to generate a report that consists of the page faults, buffered I/O, direct I/O, and CPU time used in the execution of the ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG command.

Example

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/STATISTICS ERRLOG.OLD;4
      

In this example, the output generated by this command consists of a full report of all entries in ERRLOG.OLD;4 and the run-time statistics for the execution of the command.

10.4 ERROR LOG Examples

An error log report entry contains two sections: identification and device-dependent data. The identification section consists of the first four lines and is generated for all reports. The device-dependent data section, which follows the identification section, contains information about the selected error log entries.

The first line of the identification section gives the error entry number. This number can be used to refer to a particular error log entry in an error log file. The second line contains the error sequence number and the system identification value. The error sequence number is a value assigned by the operating system to an error log entry to help determine if error log entries are being lost. This sequence number value is reset to zero only when the system is rebooted. The third and fourth lines of this section specify the type of error log entry being reported, the date and time the entry was made, the processor type and revision level, and the system serial number.

The first line of the device-dependent data section identifies the device or subsystem on which the error occurred. The remainder of this section consists of hardware information, which shows the contents of the device registers, and software information, which shows the contents of the I/O database at the time of the error.

The OpenVMS System Manager's Manual contains additional information about error log reports, including descriptions of error log entries. These descriptions specify the action recommended for specific entries.

The following output report is an example of the report generated by device errors, device attention, and device timeouts from a disk on the system.

Time Stamp, Volume Mount, and Volume Dismount Entries Examples

The following examples show a system time stamp, volume mount, and volume dismount. The time-stamp entry contains only an identification section, which is logged by the operating system at 10-minute intervals. If no other error log entries are made during the 10-minute period, the previous time stamp is overwritten with the current time stamp.

The mount volume entry contains an identification section followed by a device-dependent data section. The device-dependent data section shows the name of the device the volume is mounted on, the volume label (if the volume has a label), and the I/O operations and error counts for the device.

The dismount volume entry contains, in addition to the data provided in the volume mount entry, the I/O operations and error counts for the device on which the volume was mounted.

Machine Check Entries Examples

The following examples show machine check error reports. Each report consists of three sections: the identification section, the program counter and summary code section, and an error-dependent section.

The program counter and summary code section of the report displays the contents of the program counter, the processor status longword, and the summary code. The contents of the processor status longword and the summary code are described in the text on the right side of the report.

The error-dependent section consists of CPU-dependent information that was logged as a result of the machine check.
