DOWNCRITICAL

Valid for

Manager

Description

Use DOWNCRITICAL to classify a process that has terminated normally as critical in the report generated by DOWNREPORT. When events are sent to the event log, they are reported as critical if either a process terminates abnormally or the DOWNCRITICAL parameter is specified.

Manager sends both normal and abnormal stops to the event log. To exclude processes that have stopped normally from being sent, use the IGNORESTOPPED option.

See the DOWNREPORT parameter "DOWNREPORT" for information on setting the frequency for sending information to the event log.

Default

Manager reports a process that terminates abnormally as critical, but does not report a normally terminated process as critical.

Syntax

DOWNCRITICAL [IGNORESTOPPED]

IGNORESTOPPED: Specifies that Manager should only report processes that abended, and should not report processes terminated using the normal STOP command.
