The PubSub Engine logs state information for each of its peer engines to the oasErrLog.log file. Some of the most common messages and their meanings include the following:
|
Log File Message |
Description |
|
New peer recognized |
A peer engine has started or resumed broadcasting messages. |
|
Machine declared dead |
A peer engine was shut down or has stopped broadcasting. |
|
Invalid RETX request |
A peer engine has requested some messages be retransmitted due to a receive failure. However, the requested starting message is no longer available. The number of available messages is related directly to the size of the transfer queue, which is a circular buffer where messages are cached for transmission. This size is a system property that can be increased from the Network Management Console (NMC). |
