Chapter 3 Logging Configuration
This chapter describes how to use the NMS configuration manager (NMMGR)
to create or modify a configuration file for logging. Basic information
about NMMGR is contained in Using the Node Management Services Utilities
(32022-61005); if you are not familiar with NMMGR, you should read that
manual before continuing. Note that the logging configuration is
completely HP 3000 dependent and has no corresponding remote system
configuration.
Once you have configured the SNA node, you must configure logging.
Logging records events such as errors and console commands, and is
configured according to subsystems. Within each subsystem, different
classes of events (such as internal errors) exist. You specify where you
want logging recorded for each of the classes in the subsystem:
to a disk file, the HP 3000 console, or the logon device of a
UserName.AccountName. If you configure a logging class so that logging
is recorded to a UserName.AccountName, that user will receive logged
messages any time that UserName.AccountName has an active session.
These topics are covered in this chapter:
* Configuration file validation
* Configuring logging
* "Main" screen
* "HP-IBM Configuration" screen
* "IBM Logging Configuration (1)" screen
* "IBM Logging Configuration (2)" screen
* "IBM Logging Configuration (3)" screen
* Enabling users for a specific subsystem and class
Table 3-1 provides a summary of the logging classes for which
configuration is described in this chapter, and guidelines for those
configurations. For more information about logging, see chapter 5 of
this manual.
NOTE If very high volumes of logging are recorded to the console or a
set of users, system performance might degrade. So, the
Hewlett-Packard recommended configuration should be followed unless
you are advised otherwise by your Hewlett-Packard support contact.

*If you are using an X.25 link and you want logging information recorded,
logging (console, disk, or both) for SNA Transport class CLAS0010 must be
enabled, because the X.25 link uses the logging facilities for that SNA
Transport class.
**If you are using a manual-dial modem, console logging for SNA Transport
class CLAS0013 must be enabled, so that pertinent logging messages can be
displayed.
