2.44 DISKTHRESHOLD | NODISKTHRESHOLD

Valid for

Manager

Description

Use DISKTHRESHOLD to generate an event message when the percentage of all audit left on disk falls below the specified percentage. Use NODISKTHRESHOLD to eliminate reporting disk related thresholds.

Because audit is always being created, old audit eventually has to be recycled. If an Extract process needs audit that is about to be recycled, processing integrity is in danger.

To report audit thresholds, specify a percentage level for DISKTHRESHOLD in the Manager parameter file. When Extract program processing falls to the specified percentage, Manager sends a threshold message to EMS or to another specified location at regular intervals.

For example: You have ten audit trail files numbered 10-19, and you specify DISKTHRESHOLD 25 to generate an event message when audit files to process reaches 25% of the entire audit trail. When Extract's checkpoint is positioned in audit file 10 or 11, Manager generates a threshold message, because less than 25% of audit available for writing new data before the current position is recycled.

Alternatively, you can use the THRESHOLD or NOTHRESHOLD parameters to report on disk or tape audit thresholds. For information on these parameters see "THRESHOLD | NOTHRESHOLD".

To alter the frequency that checks and reports TMF DISKTHRESHOLD percent use CHECKTHRESHOLDMIN.

Default
