E.3 Daemon Messages

Daemon messages are output to the GDS log file.

    /var/opt/FJSVsdx/msglog/sdxservd.log

Output format to log file is as follows.

    Mon Day HH:MM:SS SDX:daemon: severity: message

Mon gives the month the message was output, Day the date, HH the hour, MM the minute, SS the second, daemon the daemon program name, severity the severity of the message, and message the message text.

Depending on the settings of the syslog, daemon message will also be output to syslog log file and console.

pslice	Physical slice name (cCtTdDs{0-7}, mphdIs{0-7},mplbIs{0-7},emcpowerN{a-h}) where C is the controller number, T is the target ID, D is the disk number, I is the instance number, N is the emcpower device number,{0-7} is the slice number with 1 digit from 0 to 7,and {a-h} is the slice number with one alphabet from a to h. May be indicated by device tree file name. e.g.) "sd@2,0:a,raw"

Explanation

Messages output by the daemon are shown below in the order of its severity. There are four levels of severity.

Level of importance	Descriptions	facility.level
HALT	This message is output when an event that will halt all services provided by GDS is detected.	user.crit
ERROR	This message is output when an event that will halt some services is detected.	user.err
WARNING	This message is output when an abnormal event is detected. It will not always result in a service halt.	user.warning
INFO	This message is output to record the daemon operation and the like. Usually, it can be ignored.	user.info

facility.level is the priority of a message passed from the GDS driver to syslogd(1M). The output destinations of messages are defined in the /etc/syslog.conf configuration file of syslogd(1M) and can be changed by modifying the definitions in /etc/syslog.conf. For details, see the description about syslog.conf(4) in this manual.
