Good Housekeeping
The items described here can help you ensure that your SSA subsystem works
correctly.
v When you are installing your SSA subsystem, ensure that ssa_adm is set to an
address that is suitable for your installation.
v Regularly view the mail messages or OPMSGs that are in the error log, to determine
whether the automatic error log analysis has detected any errors.
v If the automatic error log analysis has detected errors, but the diagnostics do not
generate an SRN, run an error log analysis with the history option set. Type:
ssa_ela -l Device [-h timeperiod]
where timeperiod is the number of 24-hour periods.
Set timeperiod to include at least the 24 hours that preceded the error. For example,
if at 09:00 on Monday you find that the error log analysis has reported an error on
pdisk3 at 05:01 on Sunday, type:
ssa_ela -l pdisk3 -h 3
where 3 is the number of 24-hour periods. An SRN for the error is generated.
Note: The error occurred on Sunday. When running the error log analysis, you need
to include at least the 24 hours that preceded the error; that is, Saturday. In
this example, therefore, timeperiod includes Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.
v If application programs fail, run diagnostics in Problem Determination mode to find
the SRN.
v Have no concerns about events that occur in the error log, unless an application
program fails, or error log analysis generates an SRN.
