Logs event information generated by the event response resource manager (ERRM) to a specified log file.
elogevent [-h] log_file
The elogevent captures event information that is posted by the event response resource manager (ERRM) in environment variables the ERRM generates when an event occurs. This script can be used as an action that is run by an event response resource. It can also be used as a template to create other user-defined actions. This script always return messages in English.
This script uses the alog command to write event information to and read event information from the specified log_file.
The log_file is treated as a circular log and has a fixed size of 64KB. When log_file is full, new entries are written over the oldest existing entries.
If log_file already exists, event information is appended to it. If log_file does not exist, it is created so that event information can be written to it.
When the -h flag is specified, the script's usage statement is written to standard output.
/usr/sbin/rsct/bin/elogevent/tmp/event.log
The /tmp/event.log file does not need
to exist when the command is run.alog -f /tmp/event.log -o
