Error Message

VCS INFO V-16-1-53504 VCS Engine Alive message!!

Cause

There are times when there is a long time gap in the engine log.  It's then very hard know whether it was because there have been no major events that HAD needed to respond to, or was it because the logger thread was blocked, or something worse.

Resolution

VCS is enhanced to log Informational message every 4 hour to confirm that HAD is working and it's expected message which can be ignored , Below are some of examples
