Tivoli Storage Manager for Windows: Administrator's Reference
Use this command to disable the processing of one or more events. If
you specify a receiver that is not supported on any platform, or if you
specify an invalid event or name, TSM issues an error message. However,
any valid receivers, events, or names that you specified are still
enabled.
Notes:
- Messages in the SEVERE category and message ANR9999D can provide valuable
diagnostic information if there are serious server problems. For this
reason, you should not disable these messages.
- Certain messages are displayed on the console even if they are
disabled. These include some messages issued during server startup and
shutdown and responses to administrative commands.
- Server messages from the server on which this command is issued, cannot be
disabled for the activity log.
- ANR1822I indicates that event logging is being ended for the specified
receiver. When the DISABLE EVENTS command is issued, this message is
logged to the receiver even if it is one of the events that has been
disabled. This is done to confirm that event logging has ended to that
receiver, but subsequent ANR1822I messages are not logged to that
receiver.
Privilege Class
To issue this command, you must have system privilege.

- Specifies the name of the receivers for which to disable events.
Specify multiple receivers by separating them with commas and no intervening

- All receivers, except for server events on the activity log receiver
(ACTLOG). Only client events can be disabled for the activity log
receiver.
- CONSOLE
- The standard server console as a receiver.
- ACTLOG
- The activity log as a receiver. You can disable only client events,
not server events, for the activity log.
- EVENTSERVER
- The event server as a receiver.
- FILE
- A user file as a receiver. Each logged event is a record in the
file. The records are not easily readable by people.
- FILETEXT
- A user file as a receiver. Each logged event is a fixed-size,
readable line.
- NTEVENTLOG
- The Windows NT application log as a receiver.
- SNMP
- The simple network management protocol (SNMP) as a receiver.
- TIVOLI
- The Tivoli Enterprise Console (TEC) as a receiver.
- USEREXIT

to the program.
- events (Required)
- Specifies the events to be disabled. You can specify multiple
events by separating them with commas and no intervening spaces.
Possible values are:
- ALL
- All events.
- event_name
- A four-digit message number preceded by ANR for a server event
or ANE for a client event. Valid ranges are from ANR0001 to
ANR9999 and from ANE4000 to ANE4999. Specify the NODENAMES parameter if
client events are to be disabled for matching nodes. Specify the
SERVERNAME parameter if server events are to be disabled for matching
servers.
For the TIVOLI event receiver only, you can specify the following events
names for the Tivoli Storage Manager application clients:
Tivoli Data Protection Application Client
| Prefix
| Range

- Note:
- Specifying ALL disables these messages. However, the INFO, WARNING,
ERROR, and SEVERE options have no effect on the messages.

- If the event list contains a severity category, all events of that
severity are disabled for the specified nodes. The message types
are:
- INFO
- Information messages (type of I).
- WARNING
- Warning messages (type of W).
- ERROR
- Error messages (type of E).
- SEVERE
- Severe error messages (type of S).
- NODEname
- Specifies the name of one or more node names for which events are to be
disabled. You can use the wildcard character (*) to specify all
nodes. You can specify NODENAME or SERVERNAME. If neither
parameter is specified, the events are disabled for the server running this
command.
- SERVername
- Specifies the name of one or more server names for which events are to be
disabled. You can use the wildcard character (*) to specify all servers
other than the server running this command. You can specify NODENAME or
