1 DIAGNOSE

DIAGNOSE [/interface] [/interactive] [infile [...]] [/qualifier[...]] DECevent is the interface between the system user and the operating system's event logging system. DECevent allows users to produce reports derived from system events using the following modes of operation: o /TRANSLATE Default, translates events using the system event log file if no file is specified or a specified event log file. o /BINARY Copies selected entries (for example, disk events) from one binary file to a new file. o /CONTINUOUS Specifies that events are reported as they are logged by the system. Events are viewed in real time. o /DUMP Displays event data in a side-by-side hexadecimal and ASCII byte-by-byte representation without text messages. o /ANALYZE Analyzes and isolates faults on the operating system by calling out suspect devices. Users specify the user interface by using: o /INTERACTIVE Enters the DECevent interactive command shell. o /INTERFACE Tells DECevent which command interface to use. 2 /INTERACTIVE Tells DECevent to enter the command line interface (CLI). It allows the user to start a DECevent session. It causes the DECevent prompt to be displayed, "DIA>". DIA/INTERACTIVE 2 /INTERFACE Allows the user to tell DECevent which user interface to run. The user can specify a command line interface (CLI) or a graphical user interface (GUI). DIA/INTERFACE= interface_name interface_name can be either CHARACTER_CELL or DECWINDOWS. 2 /TRANSLATE Performs bit-to-text translation of the event log specified by the infile parameter. If no file is specified, then the system default event log or the file that is explicitly set by the SET EVENT command is used. /TRANSLATE [infile [,...]] [/qualifier [,...]] infile: Name of the event log file to be used. 3 /BEFORE Selects and formats all event reports that occurred before the time specified. Time can be specified as an absolute time or it can be specified by the keywords TODAY (default) or YESTERDAY. /BEFORE [=time] time: (DD-MMM-YYYY:HH:MM:SS.CC) or (DD-MMM-YYYY HH:MM:SS.CC) 3 /BRIEF Specifies that the minimal amount of information for each selected event report should be provided. 3 /ENTRY Selects events for reporting starting with the event record specified by the keyword START and ending with the event record specified by the keyword END. If no number is specified, then all event records from the starting number to the end of the file are selected. /ENTRY=(START:start [,END:end]) start: Entry numbers end: 3 /EXCLUDE Allows users to exclude event records meeting specific criteria. The criteria can be specified as a list consisting of device name(s) and/or keyword(s). /EXCLUDE=([device-name][,...][,keyword][,...]) 4 keywords ATTENTIONS BUGCHECKS BUSES CACHE CONFIGURATIONS CONTROL_ENTRIES CPUS DEVICE_ERRORS DEVICE_NAME DEVICE_NODE DEVICE_NUMBER DISKS ENVIRONMENTAL_ENTRIES HOSTS INFORMATIONALS IOS or IO_SUBSYSTEMS MCHKS or MACHINE_CHECKS MEMORY NODES OS or OPERATING_SYSTEMS PWR or POWER SEQUENCE_NUMBERS SWI or SOFTWARE_INFORMATIONALS SYNC_COMMUNICATIONS TAPES TIMEOUTS UNKNOWN_ENTRIES UNSOLICITED_MSCP VMS_ENTRIES VOLUME_CHANGES 4 device-names The /EXCLUDE qualifier can be used to exclude specific devices or general device categories.

The report is specified by giving a path name of a report generation ruleset. SET DEFAULT REPORT rule_name rule_name: Name of ruleset. For example, TRANSLATION.DEFAULT_REPORT 4 EVENT Allows users to select an event log file from which event reports are formatted. This allows a user, in the interactive command shell, to use an event log other than the default system event log without specifying the file name on all of the subsequent commands. SET EVENT file_name file_name: Name of an event log to be used for formatting report. 4 LOCALE Allows users to override the locale file previously set for the current system. This is done for internationalization reasons so that natural language conventions can be added in the future. SET LOCALE location location: String defining the location of the user in terms of the locale preferences available, for example, AMERICAN_ENGLISH. ! ! NOTE: ! When adding these command make sure that "3 ADD" gets updated ! 4 PHONE_NUMBER The SET PHONE_NUMBER command sets the phone number of the Customer Support Center for a particular customer site, allowing the customer notification mail message to provide the customer with the correct number to call for service. Change the phone number in interactive mode. Once changed, execute the SAVE SYSTEM SETTINGS command to save the phone number. The current phone number setting can be seen by executing the SHOW PARAMETERS command. SET PHONE_NUMBER phone-number phone-number: Is the valid CSC phone number. 4 SICL The SET SICL command turns the System Initiated Call Logging feature on or off. SET SICL state state: Can be either ON or OFF. 4 SYSTEM_INFO Provides information to the fault manager about a system under its domain.

It specifies the level of severity by one of the following keywords: - HARD (A device could not recover data) - SOFT (A device that may have recovered data) - INFO (Indicates informational events on a device) - MEDIA (Indicates events related to storage media) 5 /DSE Performed analysis when a device crosses this threshold. When thresholds are crossed, the external notification procedures are invoked. Thresholds are set for different severity levels of events. Either the /DSE or /CUSTOMER qualifier must be present. 5 /CUSTOMER Notifies the customer when a device crosses this threshold. When thresholds are crossed, the external notification procedures are invoked. Thresholds are set for different severity levels of events. Either the /DSE or /CUSTOMER qualifier must be present. 5 count The threshold value to be set for the specified device or device type. 3 SAVE SETTINGS Allows users to store their current customization settings in a default file. DECevent will use these defaults in subsequent commands. SAVE SETTINGS 3 RESTORE Restores customized settings or the system defined settings. RESTORE SETTINGS RESTORE SYSTEM 4 SETTINGS Allows users to cancel customizations they may have set since the last customization file was saved. This command does not make sense when the fault manager is passed a command from the operating system command line. For this reason it is only supported in the interactive command shell. RESTORE SETTINGS 4 SYSTEM SETTING Allows users to cancel customizations previously set and saved in the customer system settings file. The command restores the default system settings. RESTORE SYSTEM SETTINGS !3 DELETE ! The DELETE command provides the facility for deleting either ! canonical or translation rulesets ! !4 TRANSLATION ! The DELETE TRANSLATION command DELETEs a translation ruleset. ! The result of this is that the fault manager will no longer be ! able to translate events that required that ruleset to be ! translated. The ruleset to be DELETEd from the fault manager ! is specified by a path to the ruleset. ! ! ANALYZE/ERROR DELETE TRANSLATION <path> [<library_name>] ! ! The <path> parameter is a period separated list of rulesets ! stored in a hierarchy. The name on the left of a ! period is the parent of the ruleset on the right ! side of the period. ! ! For example: HEADER.DISK.RA90 ! ! The <library_name> parameter is the optional library name. ! !4 CANONICAL ! The DELETE CANONICAL command DELETEs a canonical ruleset. The ! result of this is that the fault manager will no longer be ! able to translate events that required that ruleset to be ! translated. The ruleset to be DELETEd from the fault manager ! is specified by a path to the ruleset. ! ! ANALYZE/ERROR DELETE CANONICAL <path> [<library_name>] ! ! The <path> parameter is a period separated list of rulesets ! stored in a hierarchy. The name on the left of a ! period is the parent of the ruleset on the right ! side of the period. ! ! For example: HEADER.DISK.RA90 ! ! The <library_name> parameter is the optional library name. ! !3 SETI ! The SETI is a hidden command to set any integer parameter. ! ! ANALYZE/ERROR SETI <parameter> <integer> ! ! The <parameter> parameter is the location where a new integer ! value is to be set. ! ! The <integer> parameter is the new integer value for the ! parameter. ! !3 SETS ! The SETS is a hidden command to set any string parameter. ! ! ANALYZE/ERROR SETI <parameter> <string> ! ! The <parameter> parameter is the location where a new string ! value is to be written. ! ! The <string> parameter is the new string value for the ! parameter. ! 3 DIRECTORY Returns a list of all the event or canonical rulesets known to DECevent. DIRECTORY EVENTS DIRECTORY CANONICAL 4 EVENTS Lists all of the event rulesets that are stored in the event to canonical (ETC) knowledge library. DIRECTORY EVENTS 4 CANONICAL Lists all of the canonical rulesets that are stored in the canonical to report (CTR) knowledge library. DIRECTORY CANONICALS !4 REPORT ! ! The DIRECTORY REPORT command is used to list all of the ! report rulesets. ! ! DIA> DIRECTORY REPORT 3 IGNORE Prevents the fault manager from monitoring a device or device type.
