To Enable Logging of UPS Activity
The UPS Monitor/iX program posts UPS status and alarm messages to the system log files. If system logging
for the UPS Monitor/iX (which is event number 148) is turned on, you can review the messages to
troubleshoot your system configuration and evaluate system performance.
As the default, event 148 is ON. To verify that it is or, if necessary, to turn it on, do the following:
1. At the MPE prompt, start SYSGEN by entering:
:SYSGEN
2. At the sysgen> prompt, start the LOG configurator by entering:
sysgen>LOG
3. To display which system logging events are enabled or disabled, enter:
log>SHOW SLOG
You will see a list of information similar to the example shown on the next page.
4. To turn UPS Monitor/iX logging on (if it is currently listed as OFF), enter:
log>SLOG ON=148
5. To exit the LOG configurator and SYSGEN, enter the EXIT command twice. You will see the MPE prompt
displayed on your screen.
