TOPS VSN Log and alarm messages

1. Introduction

Collection and printing log and alarm messages

Logs and Alarms are collected for TOPS Voice Service Node (VSN) using the log and alarm subsystem installed in base TOPS VSN software. The same subsystem is responsible for creating log and alarm reports. These are stored temporarily on the TOPS VSN and can be sent to a printer or to a terminal for continuous display. TOPS VSN uses a dedicated printer to report its log messages.
Predefined log and alarm configuration datafill is delivered to the operating company as part of the TOPS VSN installation tapes.

TOPS VSN log message format

A typical TOPS VSN log or alarm message is shown below in figure 1-1. Its identifying information is printed on one or two lines, and is followed by the message.

2 Introduction
Header Information For TOPS VSN Log Messages.
Identifying information, also known as header information, uniquely identifies each log and alarm message. The header of every log or alarm message generated by TOPS VSN contains the following:
(a)
Date and Time. The date and time are displayed in the upper left of the
message. The format of the date is yymmdd, and the format of the time is hh:mm.
Severity. Each log message specifies the severity of the event it is
(b)
reporting. The following terms or values are used to indicate severity:
*C Critical Severity 1 Logs with this severity generate critical
alarms. These logs and alarms are the result of catastrophic failures such as power failures.
** Major Severity 2 Logs with this severity generate major
alarms. These logs and alarms are the result serious failures such as PRUs being unable to initialize.
* Minor Severity 3 Logs with this severity generate minor
alarms. These alarms are used to flag problems that need either a visual or audible display at the TOPS VSN site. An example of a problem that would cause a minor alarm is an incorrect table entry.
GEvent GError LEvent LError
Warning/ Trouble
Status Severity 9 This log severity reports the status of a
Progress Severity 10 Log reports the progress of an event.
Severity 4 Severity 5 Severity 6 Severity 7
Severity 8 This log severity indicates a warning.
Severity 11-13 These severity ratings are not defined for
These are intermediate severity ratings. An event is a happening that does not effect service. The event is simply logged for the record. An error is also considered non­service affecting. It is an isolated error condition caused by the system, for example, a single lost call.
particular software or hardware unit. The percentage of disk space used is an example of a log with status severity.
TOPS VSN.
TOPS VSN Log and alarm messages
Introduction 3
Status 14 Status 14 Used for login/logout security related
events. This status is now used by all logs generated from two DVS subsystems (8029 System Administration (Report #1 only, and 8039 Security Agent Sub-PRU). The logs produced from these two subsystems identify logins, logouts, changes to USERIDs and Admin objects.
Information Status 15 This log severity is used for informational
purposes only.
(c) Subsystem Number. The subsystem number is a four-digit hexadecimal
number that identifies a message subsystem. For example, the subsystem number for TOPS VSN common logs is 0200 to 020A. Each program resource unit (PRU) that generates logs has its own subsystem; the common logs are shared by all TOPS VSN PRUs.
The following list identifies the number associated with each PRU:
0200 - Common Logs - Run Errors 0201 - Common Logs - Tasking Errors 0202 - Common Logs - I/O Errors 0203 - Common Logs - VTP Errors 020A - TOPS VSN Common Logs 0220 - VI Resource Manager Logs 8722 - Alarms PRU 9440 - ACPE Resource Manager Logs 9441 - Control Link Logs 9442 - ACPE Logs + ACPE Executor 9443 - T1 Resource Manager Logs 9445 - ACPE Maintenance Position
Report Number. Report numbers are hexadecimal numbers. They identify
(d)
the group or category within the subsystem file the message belongs to. For TOPS VSN common log messages, the following numbering convention applies:
Number Type
0000 Nonspecified error types 0001 Run errors 0002 Tasking errors 0003 IO errors
(e) Error Number. Error numbers are hexadecimal numbers. They identify the
specific error condition within each report number grouping.

2. TOPS VSN log messages

TOPS VSN log messages are separated into two groups: common logs, and PRU-specific logs. Each group generates logs from a single subsystem (in most cases a subsystem is defined by a PRU). This Publication uses separate tables for each subsystem that generates logs.
The first six tables list logs that are common to TOPS VSN as a whole. These logs are generated from base software but have specific application to TOPS VSN. With these logs there is no one-to-one correspondence between subsystem and PRU. The remaining tables list logs by software (PRU) subsystem. A complete list of logs generated from base software is given in Publication 450-1301-511.
Accompanying each log entry is a definition and a description of the action the user must take to respond to the log. This Publication contains the following log sections:
3. lists messages for base run errors.
4. lists messages for base tasking errors.
5. lists messages for base IO errors.
6. lists messages for base VTP errors.
7. lists messages for TOPS VSN common logs.
8. lists base maintenance notices.
9. lists messages for VI resource manager errors.
10. lists messages for the Alars PRU.
11. lists messages for ACPE resource manager errors.
12. lists messages for datalink errors.
13. lists messages for ACPE errors.
14. lists messages for T1 resource manager errors.
15. lists messages for the Locality Database.
16. lists messages for the Prompt Manager.
