RAID Manager log files
HORCM logs are classified into startup logs and execution logs.
•
The startup logs contain data on errors that occur before HORCM becomes ready to provide
services. Thus, if HORCM fails to start up due to improper environment setting, refer to the
startup logs to resolve the problem.
•
The HORCM execution logs (error log, trace, and core files) contain data on errors that are
caused by software or hardware problems. These logs contain internal error data that does
not apply to any user settings, therefore, you do not need to refer to the HORCM execution
logs.
•
When an error occurs in execution of a command, data on the error is collected in the
command log file. Users may refer to the command log file if a command execution error
occurs.
Figure 26 Logs and traces
The startup log, error log, trace, and core files are stored as shown in Table 6 (page 42) . Specify
the directories for the HORCM and command log files using the HORCM_LOG and HORCC_LOG
environment variables as shown in
Table 7 (page 43) . If it is not possible to create the log files,
or if an error occurs before the log files are created, the error logs are output in the system log
file. If the HORCM activation fails, the system administrator should check the system log file, identify
the error cause, and take the proper action. The system log file for UNIX-based systems is the syslog
file. The system log file for Windows-based systems is the Event Log file.
