What does "EVM daemon: High event activity" mean -- what events?
============================ EVM Log event ===========================
EVM event name: sys.unix.evm.daemon.event_activity
This high priority event is posted by the Event Manager (EVM)
daemon when it detects a high number of events occurring over
several minutes.
Action: Use the event viewer or the evmget(1) command to review the
event log for the source of the activity. If the log does not show
high activity around the time at which this event was posted, it is
likely that the events were low priority, and hence were not
logged. You can monitor low-priority events by running the
evmwatch(1) command with an appropriate filter, or by temporarily
reconfiguring the EVM logger to log low-priority events.
Note: You can change the parameters which control the posting of
this event by modifying the daemon configuration file,
/etc/evmdaemon.conf.
======================================================================
Formatted Message:
EVM daemon: High event activity - exceeds 500 in 10 minutes

Re: What does "EVM daemon: High event activity" mean -- what events?
The EVM daemon was configured to report such events. From the information provided, I am not able to see the event in question. Looking at the event logs could provide you with more insight.

sysman provides a way to view those events.

Re: What does "EVM daemon: High event activity" mean -- what events?
evmwatch -A -f "[priority >= 0]" | more
The '-A' flag indicates to filter the output through 'evmshow' to make the binary output of evmwatch readable, and the '-f' filter flag overrides any default filtering to show you everything.
Run this command during the periods when you have been getting the alert messages and see what is triggering them.
Best wishes,
Don

Re: What does "EVM daemon: High event activity" mean -- what events?
syslogd writes its events to EVM, and for the period immediately preceding the EVM mail message, there were over 8000 messages logged in syslog. The messages were from named (the DNS name server), having to do with our corporate name servers. That's another problem, for another day (since the problem has gone away for now).
Thanks for the responses!
