While VMRM runs,
it creates a log file of major events as they occur. All messages
that are sent to the message user (MSGUSER) defined in the ADMIN statement
are logged. (If that user is not logged on, no messages are sent,
but the messages are still logged.) Other information that is not
sent to the MSGUSER is also logged. See ADMIN Statement for
more information.
The information in the log file is useful for fixing syntax problems
in the configuration file and many other problems encountered by VMRM. The
messages for VMRM can
be found in z/VM: CMS and REXX/VM Messages and Codes.
A log file is stored on the VMRMSVM user's
A-disk even if the MSGUSER operand on the ADMIN statement is not specified.
The primary log file is called VMRM LOG1
A. Once the log file reaches 10,000 records, it will be renamed and
saved as VMRM LOG2
A. A previously existing VMRM LOG2
A file will be erased. Logging will continue and be written to a new VMRM LOG1
A file. This process is repeated each time the log record limit is
reached. Figure 1 shows
an example of a VMRM log file. Figure 1. Sample VMRM Log File
