Message HBO0308I shows up frequently when collecting data with the System Data Engine

Symptom

The message HBO0308I shows up frequently when the System Data Engine is collecting data.

Cause

HBO0308I is an informational message and provides no cause for concern. What this message says is that the specified buffer was filled, and the data sent. This results in more frequent and smaller packets of data flowing into the Data Streamer, which should help prevent the Data Streamer from being overwhelmed by data.

Solution

To avoid this message, you can perform the following tasks:

• Reduce the data collection interval by setting the System Data Engine started task parameter IBM_SDE_INTERVAL to a smaller value.
• Increase the buffer size by changing the COLLECT statement in the System Data Engine started task.
