System Advisory Subject Names

Rendezvous software constructs the subject names of system advisory messages using this template:

    _RV.class.SYSTEM.name

 

SYSTEM Advisory Subject Name Elements

Element

Description

class

The class element denotes the severity of the situation:

• The class ERROR indicates either a problem that requires immediate action, or a situation in which Rendezvous software could not complete its task properly.
• The class WARN indicates an anomalous situation that is not yet critical. In many cases Rendezvous software can rectify the situation by itself.
• The class INFO indicates an interesting event in the normal operation of Rendezvous software.

source

The source element is SYSTEM for all advisories from Rendezvous communications software and the Rendezvous daemon.

name

The name element describes the situation that the advisory reports. This element can actually consist of several elements, so the wildcard character > (rather than *) is the correct way to match all names in this position.
