Interpreting the Event Log

Message Details Field

For all messages logged from the tvcs process, the message _ details field, which contains the body of the message, consists of a number of human-readable name=value pairs, separated by a space.

The first field within the message _ details field is always Event and the last field is always Level.

The table below shows all the possible fields within the message _ details field, in the order that they would normally appear, along with a description of each.

In addition to the events described below, a

syslog.info event containing the string MARK will be

logged after each hour of inactivity to provide confirmation that logging is still active.
