There is something in our system that is causing >250K information events getting logged every day. See attached image. These all appear to be associated with services. These events are not important and are causing dbase and system to get overloaded among other issues. Is there a way to stop dataminer from reporting these and other specific information events?
Thanks
Hi Jeff,
There's no way to prevent specific information events from being generated.
The information events from the screenshot are most likely generated when the configuration of DataMiner services gets updated.
The action comes from a QAction in the driver of element 31856/7217.
It might be good to check what element this is, which driver it is using and why it is doing that amount of service updates. You can search for the element id 31856/7217 through the Cube Search box.
skipInformationEvents=true can indeed be used in Automation Scripts to suppress the “Set By XXXX to XXXX” information events that get generated on parameter sets.
Unfortunately, I’m not aware of a similar directive to suppress information events from service updates.
Wouter,
Thanks for your response. I believe this particular case is due to the way Skyline has implemented our code. In this case we have services that are dynamically created and there is a custom property associated with these services that contains an element ID associated with the service. This value changes often and when it does the code updates this custom property depending on a value that is polled from one of the SNMP devices. I believe these info events get generated when this property is changed/edited.
I noticed in the Development Library ref manual p1736 the following statement:
“If you add a comment line containing skipInformationEvents=true, you will prevent
information events from being generated by the SET statements in the script.”
Is there something like this that could stop DM from generating these events?
Thanks again
Jeff
