[fm-discuss] ereports and payload questions

[Derek Orr - Sun Scotland]

I have two queries relating to ereports ;

1) Is there an enumeration for ereport.fm.fmd.??? events
    somewhere - I can't find any such on events.central.

    A system reports an ereport.fm.fmd.asru_fmri with payload

    nvlist version: 0
    version = 0x0
    class = ereport.fm.fmd.asru_fmri
    ena = 0x26d393ef7f700401
    msg = failed to locate /var/fm/fmd/rsrc/ded6d7d6-2748-4a36-d35e-fcdcf8b819e4
    __ttl = 0x1
    __tod = 0x44f035b6 0xa7004be

    The apparent source of the event is in fmd/common/fmd_asru.c.


2) Is the 'resource' section in an ereport payload optional?

    On re-reading the FMA event protocol it looks like this
    may be the case, but I'd not previously come across an
    example. A system had a number of correctable memory errors,
    all but one of the ereports had a resource section in the
    payload ;

    class = ereport.cpu.ultraSPARC-IVplus.ce
        ...
    resource = (embedded nvlist)
    nvlist version: 0
            version = 0x0
            scheme = mem
            unum = Slot A: J3101
    (end resource)


Any assistance appreciated,
	Derek.
