LINCS keeps event logs and error logs to help in the determination of problems. This panel
allows you to display the event logs and error logs, all together or in separate groups. This
panel can also be used to clear (reset) the logs and counters.
All Events Log
The All Events Log keeps track of LINCS events such as all online errors detected by LINCS
as well as IML events, configuration events, etc. Included in the log is a time stamp of when
the event occurred. This facility can be very useful in determining the frequency of a particular
error, or in helping keep track of whether an error continues after LINCS was IMLed (such as
after swapping a card) or reconfigured. For a more complete definition of the error codes
listed, refer to the LINCS Problem Determination Manual. For an example panel, see Port,
LU or Event Code Events Log.
Port Events Log
This log is displayed by pressing the 2 key followed by a comma and the port number that
you wish to display logs on (for example: ‘2.mcc1.005’) followed by the Enter key on the
Event Logs menu. The Port Events Log displays events for the port selected only. For a more
complete definition of the error codes listed, refer to LINCS Problem Determination Manual.
For an example panel, see Port, LU & Event Code Events Log.
This facility can be very useful in determining the frequency of a particular error.
LU Events Log
This selection displays events logged for the specified LU. Optional parameters are ,host,lu
where host is the host circuit number (00-7F) or host letter for older versions of code (a-z,1-6)
and LU is the LU number in hexadecimal. An example selection of this log would look like:
‘3,00,05’.
If the parameters are omitted, the logs for the current LU (the LU attached to the session in
LINCS Central Control) is displayed.
For a more complete definition of the error codes listed, refer to LINCS Problem Determination
Manual. For an example panel, see Port, LU & Event Code Events Log. This facility can be
very useful in determining the frequency of a particular error.
