Discussion
One of the log classes defined for the Network Services is detailed event
logging, which records normal Network Services events. When first
started and during normal operation, the Network Services detailed
event logging is disabled in order to avoid the overhead of frequent
logging. Typically, detailed event logging is only enabled to investigate
a specific action or series of events if required for troubleshooting.
When detailed event logging is enabled, the log messages destination is
determined by the configuration of NMMGR logging subsystem 6
class 4 (SUB0006, CLAS0004). The log file is the recommended
destination for detailed logging. Logging detailed events to the system
console is not recommended, since the log messages tend to clutter the
console screen.
Example
The example below logs the environment information from DSLINE and
REMOTE HELLO commands and the service requests received by the
DSDAD process. You might use this type of event logging to monitor
usage of the Network Services. The destination for CLAS0004 of
SUB0006 specified in the NMMGR logging configuration should be to
the NM log file, not the system console.
