d. If the Archive Manager has exceeded the Maximum size value, the Archive Manager ends. The next Archive Manager job copies the new Active Journal data set. e. If the Archive Manager is writing to tape and the Maximum volumes value has been exceeded, the Archive Manager ends. The next Archive Manager job copies the new Active Journal data set. f. The Active Journal is copied to the current Archive Journal and processing returns to step 2. 4. When IMS Connect Extensions shuts down and any remaining event records in Active Journal data sets need copying, the Archive Manager job is submitted. 5. When IMS Connect Extensions restarts and for some reason there are outstanding event records to be archived, the Archive Manager job is submitted. Using the IMS Connect Extensions utilities and the tools IMS Performance Analyzer and IMS Problem Investigator, you can obtain reports from your Archive Journals. 11.2.3 IMS Connect event records The IMS Connect Extensions event collection process collects event records continuously, while IMS Connect processes incoming message requests. An event record consists of an event number and data associated with the event. The event number ranges from X'00' to X'FF' (decimal 0-255) and the associated data varies depending on the event number. There are two types of event records: Connect status event A Connect status event identifies a change in the status of your IMS Connect system, for example, a resource (datastore, TMEMBER) becoming available or unavailable, or a socket becoming accepted for input by a port task. Connect status events are typically not related to the processing of input messages, but can affect their processing. Connect status event records are identified by a constant event key, 'EVNT'. Message related event Message related event records identify an event in the processing of an incoming message request. Message related event records have a store clock (STCK) token event key. For non-persistent sockets, each incoming message is assigned a unique event key, and every event associated with the processing of the message has the same event key. For persistent sockets, all incoming messages are assigned the same event key. All events associated with the processing of all messages for the duration of the socket have the same event key. IMS Connect Extensions can also process two types of trace records: Recorder trace records IMS Connect Extensions provides utilities to convert the IMS Connect recorder trace data into variable length records in the format of IMS Connect Extensions event records. IMS Connect trace records IMS can optionally collect IMS Connect trace event records. These event records include information about OTMA, Response Status Messages (RSMs), and exits output messages.
