Hi,

ANR1440I will be followed by an ARN????E if there is something
(proces/job) cancelled.

ANE errors, changed during processing/file in use things should be
minimized by properly implementing incl/excl list. Generic incl/excl
statement in client option sets on the server. BA client specific
incl/excludes in de dsm.opt/sys of that client.

Regards,

Karel

Well, I hadn't been thinking of these messages as a-prioiri classes.
I began this as a list of individual messages I'd decided weren't all
that interesting w.r.t.  the maintenance of the server; I didn't want to
ignore anything that I hadn't specifically considered, at least
momentarily.  So that's a good thought.


But as I consider it, there are plenty of -E messages which need to get
filtered, or at least shunted to the client admin.

04/25/06   03:23:49     ANE4037E (Session: 309358, Node:
POWERPC.CNS.UFL.EDU)  File '\\opers_sups\c$\Program
Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient\dsmsched.log' changed during processing.  File
skipped.(SESSION: 30935)

though that's an ANE, not an ANR.

I haven't yet found a counterexample for the other side (i.e. a -I
message I think I want to see) ... Oh, here are a few:

04/25/06   12:35:55     ANR1440I All drives in use.  Process 5558 being
preempted by higher priority operation. (SESSION: 660392)

04/25/06   15:50:31     ANR4553I Incremental database backup triggered;
started as process 2639. (PROCESS: 2639)
