Getting information about Event Management objects in the SDR

To get information about all of the event management objects in the SDR, you can issue the SDRGetObjects command for each class of objects. You can also direct the output to a file, which you can then view or print. To do this, enter the following commands:

SDRGetObjects -G EM_Resource_Variable > rv_data
SDRGetObjects -G EM_Resource_Class > class_data
SDRGetObjects -G EM_Structured_Byte_String > sbs_data
SDRGetObjects -G EM_Instance_Vector > iv_data
SDRGetObjects -G EM_Resource_Monitor > rm_data

Specifying the -G flag ensures that you receive information about all of the resource variables in all of the system partitions in the SP system. If you are only interested in the resource variables in the current system partition, omit the -G flag.

Figure 46 contains an example of the output of each SDRGetObjects command for the IBM.PSSP.SP_HW.Node.lcd1 resource variable and its associated resource class, structured byte string, instance vector, and resource monitor definitions. For ease of presentation, the output has been reformatted vertically. The actual output of the command is horizontally formatted.

For a complete description of the attributes of Event Management SDR classes, see RSCT: Event Management Programming Guide and Reference.

You can also restrict the information you receive. For example, to get only the rvName and rvClass information for the IBM.PSSP.SP_HW.Node.lcd1 resource variable, enter:

SDRGetObjects -G EM_Resource_Variable \
    rvName==IBM.PSSP.SP_HW.Node.lcd1 rvName rvClass

In response, the system displays:

rvName                            rvClass
IBM.PSSP.SP_HW.Node.lcd1          IBM.PSSP.SP_HW

For more information about the SDRGetObjects command, see PSSP Command and Technical Reference.
