Data entry can be activated and deactivated using the administration command:
KDCDIAG KDCMON={ ON | OFF }
This administration function is also available on the KDCADMI program interface and in WinAdmin/WebAdmin.
The UTM administrator can use the following command:
KDCINF SYSPARM
at any time to determine whether or not data is being recorded.
If openUTM detects that the KDCMON function is not available when it attempts to activate it, then the following message is output to the default destination SYSLOG:
K080 KDCMON is not active
Possible cause: Communication with the log process has been interrupted (Unix and Linux systems only).
If openUTM detects that the KDCMON function is not available any more while it is acquiring data, then openUTM deactivates the collection of data and informs the user of this fact with message K080.
The following files are generated during collection.
Unix and Linux systems
For each measurement interval openUTM creates a file with the following name:
filebase/KDCMON/nnnn.pid
where nnnn is the sequential number of the measurement interval, starting with 0001 after the application has been started, and where pid is the process ID of the utmlog process belonging to the current application run.
Windows systems
openUTM generates a file with the fixed name filebase\KDCMON\0001.
This file remains open from the first KDCDIAG KDCMON=ON command until the end of the application run. You can copy this file after you have entered the KDCDIAG KDCMON=OFF command.
Note that the file is empty again after the next KDCDIAG KDCMON=ON command or after the next application start.
