SYSTEM (System)
The SYSTEM MO is used to log information about system resets, including
interchanges. When software encounters a problem with hardware, or with its
own processes, and requests a restart to clear the problem, an error is logged
under SYSTEM. For example, if there is a loss of clocking in a system with
duplicated servers, the system switches to the other clock and then executes a
level-2 system reset to recover from hardware problems caused by the loss of
clock. Errors logged under SYSTEM can help to determine the cause of a reset.
For more information about interchanges, see:
■ ‘‘Recovery’’ on page 3-5, including:
— ‘‘Reset Level 1 (Warm Restart)’’
— ‘‘Reset Level 2 (Cold-2 Restart)’’
— ‘‘Reset Level 4 (MultiVantage Application Reload)’’
■ ‘‘Troubleshooting a Duplicated Server’’ on page 4-10
The display initcauses screen should also contain information about the reset.
(See ‘‘display initcauses’’ on page 7-135.)
