HOW TO MAKE SURE PROGRAM EVENT FILE LOGGING IS ENABLED
The "SYSGEN>log/show slog" command can be used to display the current setting for
various system logging events. The "status" corresponding to the "Program File Event"
(event number 116) must be "ON."
Example 5-1. SYSGEN>log/show slog
:sysgen
[snip ...]
sysgen> log
[snip ...]
log>show slog
system log events event # status
----------------- ------- ------
System Logging 100 ON
System Up 101 ON
[snip...]
Program File Event 116 ON
Native Mode Spooling 120 OFF
[snip...]
DISPLAYING PROGRAM FILE EVENTS
To display all “Program File Event” log records, use the "LOGTOOL>list" command. The
list command allows the user to explicitly specify the logging event number in the "type="
parameter. To see only Program File Events, specify "type=116."
NOTE On MPE/iX Release 7.0, the LOGTOOL program can be found in PUB.SYS.
On some older versions of MPE/iX, LOGTOOL was in DIAG.SYS.
LOGTOOL will format Program File Events as shown in the example below. There are two
important fields in this log record:
• EVENT TYPE. The "event type" field is used to distinguish different Program File
Events. Event types -101, -102, and -103 indicate that a program performed an action
that will not work properly with greater than 8190 process (BIGPIN=true). These
events are described in detail below.
• PROGRAM FILE NAME. This field contains the name of the program file
corresponding to the program that has the issue. See "When/How Are Events Logged"
below.
