Data Protector Notifications
Chapter 7346
Explanation of Some Notifications
Alarm The Alarm notification is used to display critical Data Protector
messages triggered by Data Protector internal conditions.
Database Purge Needed By default, once per day Data Protector will
check the Database Purge Needed condition as a part of Data Protector
checking and maintenance mechanism and trigger the notification if:
• For any Data Protector client in the cell, the number of days since the
last IDB filename purge is larger than the <Days Last Purge
[days]> input parameter and at least one of the following two
conditions is true:
✓ The number of filename records likely to be purged is larger than
the <Num. Estimated Filenames [mio]> input parameter.
✓ It is estimated that more than <Estimated Time Purge
[sec]> seconds will be needed to finish the purge.
• The number of filenames in the IDB is larger than the <Num.
Filenames [mio]> input parameter.
For more information on the Data Protector checking and maintenance
mechanism, refer to “Data Protector Checking and Maintenance
Mechanism” on page 605.
Database Space Low By default, once per day Data Protector will
check the Database Space Low condition, and will trigger notification if
the allocated space for CDB extension files is running low, if any of the
disks containing the IDB are running out of space, or if the allocated
space for all DC directories is running low. In other words, the
notification will be triggered if any of the following is true:
• The difference between the maximum size of all CDB extension files,
(the sum of all CDB extension files maximum sizes) and the current
size of all CDB extension files drops below the <Maximum Size of
filenames.dat [MB]> input parameter.
• The free disk space on any of the disks containing the IDB drops
below the <Disk Free for Internal Database [Mb]> input
parameter.
• The difference between the maximum size of all DC directories and
the current size of all DC directories drops below the <DCBF Size
Limit [MB]> input parameter.
