CA1_AUDIT_VRFY_WITHIN_LOW_THRSH

Description

This check monitors space in the CA 1 Audit file to help ensure that sufficient space is available to log all tape activity. This check is intended to provide the first alert that the Audit file may be filling up. A second check is also provided to trigger a medium level alert if space is not available in the Audit file. The default interval for this check is every 30 minutes and the exception interval is every 30 minutes.

Best Practice

Run the TMSCOPY utility regularly to help ensure that space is available. For most installations this can be done once a day. The TMSCOPY utility creates a backup of the Audit file and resets the internal pointers in the active Audit file to empty status. If this check triggers frequently, you may need to allocate a larger Audit file on disk.

Parameters Accepted

This check accepts one parameter: LOW_CHECK_THAUDT_MINUS(nn).

The value specified in LOW_CHECK_THAUDT_MINUS(nn) will be subtracted from the percentage specified in THAUDT in CTAPOPTNs to determine when to trigger this alert. This parameter must be an integer in the range of 1-30. The default is: LOW_CHECK_THAUDT_MINUS(20).

Debug Support

Yes

Verbose Support

Yes
