Hi,

EMS (Event Monitoring Service) is a framework that is used to monitor various system resources.

More information can be found in this document:

Using the Event Monitoring Service:

http://docs.hp.com/hpux/onlinedocs/B7612-90015/B7612-90015.html

Your syslog message signifies the starting up of the EMS daemon for monitoring your hardware.

Hope this helps. Regards.

Hi,

The message in syslog is just an incomplete summary about the real problem that was log. To have the complete problem description with a resolution execute the command listed in the syslog file:

/opt/resmon/bin/resdata -M 1533300606

If you still need help with this message could you past the output you had from that command.

This is an EMS warning messages. Since your message is incomplete, you may try to execute the exact command that shows in the message to get a report, ie. "/opt/resmon/bin/resdata -M 1533300606......" and it will show which part of your machine is having problem. Then trace the problem from that report.

Hope this helps.
Kenny.
