GSP to Event.log writing problem

[Inesa Clinko]

Hi,
I have a problem: The event.log is not updated, when GSP SL events occur.
OS 11.31 March 2009.
I have already done the following:

1. Restart diagmond

2. Checked #monconfig - it is OK to write events => 1 to txt file:/var/opt/resmon/log/event.log

3. Updated Online diag for 11.31 to the last + prerequisites:

OnlineDiag B.11.31.07.11 HPUX 11.31 Support Tools Bundle, March 2010
SysFaultMgmt C.07.00.04.06 HPUX System Fault Management
SysMgmtWeb A.3.0.0 HP-UX Web Based System Management User Interfaces
WBEMSvcs A.02.09.02 HP WBEM

4. Switched between EMS and SFM mode.
Then release SFM mode by default.

#sfmconfig -w -q
EMS hardware monitors are disabled & SysFaultMgmt is monitoring devices.

5.#sfmconfig -t -a - this send the test event and the event.log was updated.

The question is:

What is the source for GSP SL log?
What is the source for event.log on the OS?
Why the event on SL cannot update event.log?

Quality answers should be pointed :))

What is the source for GSP SL log?

The hardware itself.

What is the source for event.log on the OS?

Diag/SFm monitors/providers.

Why the event on SL cannot update event.log?

This is part of the monitors/providers/diagmond.

Hi,

What system are we talking about here? Some systems needed to have PDC or GSP firmware updated to fix event log update issues.

CNB's question is important. Because you are saying GSP, I am guessing you are either on older FW with a 'newer' box, or your running an A, L, or N.

You can pull the SL logs on older systems with:
/usr/sbin/diag/contrib/cclogview -k /var/stm/logs/os/ccerrlog

On newer systems use:
/usr/sbin/diag/contrib/slview
