Tsm Operational Reporting Select Statement

[StephaneD]

Good day,

I have some hourly automated scripts that querying the tsm database and when there is no result, which is okay it is adding "there is no match found using this criteria" message in my actlog, I would like to know how can prevent this message to get in the actlog.

Any idea ?

Thanks

Stephane

You cannot prevent that message from entering the actlog. It's a standard informational message and can be ignored. Most monitoring apps do ignore it.

Hi StephaneD

Do you need exclude these messages from TSM OR ?

Yes I would like to not see these message since there are not result from the query which means it is okay. If I could specify this at my query level it would be great ie if no result do nothing

Hi StephaneD

you can´t avoid these messages in the actlog. I don´t know if you are using reports, where these messages appear inside or if you are using the "query actlog"-command manually.

Maybe as a hint, a helpful tool is the free version of the "Power Administrator for TSM", which includes a command line, where you can easily filter all desired messages with e.g. a "not"-filter. You can filter multiple times the same query result of an actlog query to approach to the end result. Another powerful function is the central message log, where you can set up fine granulated filter rules for every type of situation and messages on a TSM server. You have also the possibility to switch severity degrees of TSM messages. Have a look to: www.tsmpoweradmin.com
