o clock set
This event is generated each time that a DECdts process sets its
local clock. Arguments:
new time Specifies the corrected clock setting.
old time Specifies the faulty time before the clock was set.
o different epoch detected
This event is generated each time the local node receives a time
value that has an epoch number different from its own. This event
normally occurs after a node's epoch has been changed. Arguments:
local epoch Specifies the local node's epoch number.
number
server [id] Specifies the known servers and their epoch numbers.
o disable completed
This event is generated each time that a disable command is
executed to stop DECdts.
o enable completed
This event is generated each time that an enable command is
executed to start DECdts.
o epoch change completed
This event is generated each time that the epoch is set for the
local node. Arguments:
new epoch Specifies the epoch number after the epoch was
declared.
old epoch Specifies the epoch number before the epoch was
declared.
o insufficient resources detected
This event is generated each time that the node's virtual memory
is full. The event is displayed on all nodes and is usually
followed by a system abort.
o invalid message detected
This event is generated each time that the local node receives
a corrupted or incorrect message. Invalid messages are normally
retransmitted, but the hexadecimal contents of the invalid message
are supplied for troubleshooting. Arguments:
message Specifies the hexadecimal contents of the invalid
message.
node [id] Specifies the full name of the node that generated
the invalid message.
o local time does not intersect
This event is generated each time that the time interval of the
local node does not intersect with the values received from other
servers. If this event is frequently generated, you may wish to
decrease the setting for the characteristic synchronization hold down
or increase the settings for the characteristics error tolerance or
maximum inaccuracy. Arguments:
clock set Specifies whether or not the clock was automatically
set to correct the local fault. If false, the clock
was not set to correct the local fault.
computed Specifies the intersection of the majority of server
time times.
local time Specifies the local time interval that does
not intersect with the computed time.
o no global server
This event is generated at a courier server when it cannot locate
a global server.
o protocol version mismatch detected
This event is generated each time that the DECdts protocol version
of a received message does not match the protocol in force at the
local node. Argument:
node [id] Specifies the full name of the node that generated
the message with the incompatible protocol version.
o server not responding
This event is generated at a courier server when it attempts to
synchronize with the listed global server, but the server does not
respond. The event may be caused by a low characteristic setting
for wan timeout. Argument:
node [id] Specifies the node name of the server not responding.
o server time does not intersect
This event is generated each time that the local node receives a
potentially faulty time value from a server. If the event is
repeatedly generated for the same node, examine the node's
settings for these characteristics: error tolerance,
synchronization hold down, and maximum inaccuracy. Argument:
server [id] Specifies the list of servers used in the
synchronization.
o synchronization completed
This event is generated each time that a synchronization is
completed for the local node. Arguments:
clock Specifies the relative time that the local clock
adjustment needs to be adjusted to match the computed time.
computed Specifies the time computed from the intersection of
time all server time intervals.
This event is one that network managers commonly select to be
blocked. If you wish to block this event, you may do so using
the NET$EVENT_LOCAL script. For more information about that
script, refer to HELP NETWORK_MANAGEMENT EVENT_DISPATCHER.
o system error detected
This event is generated each time that the operating system
has a system error relevant to DECdts operation. See the system
documentation for an explanation of the report text. Argument:
error text Specifies the system error report.
o time provider failure detected
This event is generated each time that an external time provider
returns an invalid time or does not respond.
o time representation version mismatch detected
This event is generated each time that the local node receives
a response indicating that it is using an invalid time
representation version. Argument:
node [id] Specifies the name of the node that is running the
incompatible time representation version.
o too few servers detected
This event is generated each time that the number of servers
specified by the servers required characteristic are not available
for synchronization with the local node. Arguments:
number Specifies the number of servers that responded to
detected the synchronization request.
number Specifies the number of servers required for
required synchronization.
o too many servers detected
This event is generated each time that server responses overflow
the synchronization list buffer of the local node. The difference
between the maximum delivered and number accepted arguments is the
number of responses that overflowed the buffer. Arguments:
number Specifies the number of server responses that were
accepted accepted by the node.
number Specifies the number of servers responding to a
detected solicitation.
o update initiated
This event confirms an attempt to change the system time resulting
from the update command. Arguments:
current time Specifies the current system time.
update time Specifies the new, updated system time.
