5509.0. "hdlc history info lost" by CTHQ::WOODCOCK () Thu Aug 19 1993 11:21

Greetings,

I'm trying to get stats from a node logical station thru historian and I am
getting errors. I do get some stats during the day but mostly not. There
appears to be no polling errors at all as shown going back 2-3 days. When
issueing the past time commands for counters instead of stats, I see only
data after 19:00 which explains why there are no stats. So what happened to the
counters before 19:0??

any ideas,
brad...

Lost a bit of info when putting in the note. The MODEM CONNECT LINE part=
status should indicate "3" successful polls and no errored polls. Polling
at daily intervals.

>   -------- 14 hours --------> Keep age = 0 14:00:00.00,

Whoops, thanks much SAm. Now for your next trick :) . 

How come this command produces a keep age of 30 days and the next one for 14 
hours? and what can I use for an absolute syntax for no mistakes? Do I have
to specify keep age = 14 00:00:00.00  ??

thanks,
brad...

BTW, this syntax worked for all three DECnet_IV recordings.

                               Keep age = 30 00:00:00.00,

	Brad,

	The only difference I can see in this two command is that in the
  second command you use "poll peroid".

>record node4 BBAK01 line SYN-1 part=characteristics,-

                  ^
                  |

   Could you, please, verify this?

5509.5diff=entity not poll periodCTHQ::WOODCOCKFri Aug 27 1993 16:1815
SAm,

Actually when doing the NODE4 CIRCUIT and LINE RECORDs I use the POLL PERIOD
for the CIRCUIT **COUNTERS** only. For CIRCUIT CHAR and LINE CHAR no poll
period is specified yet they all ended up with a 30 day keep age. The real
difference is that the entity is a NODE child instead of a NODE4 child. I
also just did the RECORD for NODE LOGICAL STATION counters w/o poll period
and still got 14 hours. Wierd, I wouldn't have thought the entity type would 
make a difference in a RECORD command. In any event the point is now moot for
me (maybe not for you though :) ), I specified keep age= 14 00:00:00 and it
seems to work for all entities.

best regards,
brad...
