Messages are usually issued as responses to administration commands. There are, however, also some messages which are not (or not exclusively) issued by administration commands. When errors occur on accessing the request queue or the partner list, openFT generates normal DMS error messages.
To support automatic monitoring, some events which are not direct responses to user input are reported by openFT via a console message. Depending on which events are involved, further actions can then be initiated by automatic operators such as Omnis-Prop, HLL-Prop, etc. Console messages can also be used to generate SNMP traps for automatic FT monitoring using SNMP.
The console messages for automatic monitoring occupy the message code range from FTR0300 to FTR0399. They can be activated and deactivated with FTMODOPT CONSOLE-TRAPS=*ON/*OFF. openFT outputs these messages asynchronously. This means that the output is also dependent on the settings for asychronous messages in the PARM library (see “Structure of the PARM member”).
