4.3.1 RAS1 service initialization
The RAS acronym means Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability. The RAS1
service in this discussion refers to the basic services component used for
diagnostic tracing. Nearly all diagnostic information for IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON
XE is delivered through the RAS1 trace component. This component is configured
in member KxxENV of RKANPAR using the KBB_RAS1 environment variable.
All OMEGAMON address spaces provide a RAS1 banner during RAS1
component initialization. Figure 4-5 on page 120 shows the RAS1 banner from
our Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server in SC69.
