Error Message

 

01/19/12 11:20:20 : (PID:3652,TID:3784) WARNING: CVxVdsProvider::RefreshEventThread need_refresh = 0  WaitOperation = 0
01/19/12 11:20:20 : (PID:3652,TID:3784) WARNING: CVxVdsProvider::RefreshEventThread need_refresh = 0

 

Cause

The log entry does not affect the functionality of the application.

By default the VxVDS logs when it updates the database every 5 seconds, and this is logged as a warning so if review is required, then it can be determined if the database was refreshed or not.

Resolution

 If the log file growth is undesirable, as a workaround the logging level can be lowered as follows:

- Load the registry editor.
- Locate the following REG_DWORD value:
     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VERITAS\VxSvc\CurrentVersion\Tracing\vds\Level
- Set the value to 0-Error
   Note:  The default level is: 1-Warning.
