Abstract

PURPOSE:To display system monitor information speedily when it is necessary by storing a message consisting of execution state information on an electronic computer system in a storage device and displaying it upon occasion. CONSTITUTION:A message information read/write controller 5 records execution state information on the electronic computer system that a system monitor controller 1 generates in the storage device 6 in the generation order and when a display request arrives from a display request input device 2, a requested message record is read out according to its sequence number, passed to a message information editing controller 4, and outputted on a message display device 3.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to a message display method for execution/status information of a system monitoring control device of an electronic computer system (prior art). When displaying execution/status information as a message on a message display device, this is simply displayed in a part of the display device.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Since conventional message display methods merely display messages, it is desirable to quickly obtain execution/status information of the system monitoring control device at any time and on any message display device. The disadvantage was that it was impossible to do so, and no memory of it remained. Another drawback is that it is difficult to display information only during a necessary period.

By storing message information on the object line storage device of the present invention, the above-mentioned drawbacks are specifically eliminated, and a nine-message display/storage system is provided in which the monitoring and control information can be displayed at all times.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The message display and storage method according to the present invention includes a system monitoring control device, a message display device, and a message reading/storage system.
It is configured to include a write control device, a storage device, a message information editing control device, and a display request input device.

The system monitoring and control device is for monitoring and controlling execution state information of a computer system.

The message display device is for displaying execution status information as message information.

The message read/write control device is for carrying out reading/writing of message information.

The storage device is for storing message information.

The message information editing control device is for editing and outputting message information in accordance with the operation of the message display device.

The display request input device is for inputting a message display request.

(Example) Next, an example of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to one drawing.

FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram for explaining the present invention.

In FIG. 1, 1 is a system monitoring control device, 2 is a display request input device, 3 is a message display device, 4 is a message information editing control device, 5 is a message information read/write control device, and 6 is a storage device.

The configuration of the message information read/write control unit [5] and the storage device 6 is shown in FIG. In FIG. 2, T is a write message counter for specifying a message sequence number to be added to write message information, 8 is a write message address register for specifying an address to write to the storage device 6, and 9 is a display input device. a read message counter for setting a message sequence number of read message information input from 1;
0 is a read message address register for designating an address for reading data into the storage device 6.

The storage device 8 stores message information records composed of message information and message sequence numbers on a round bobbin.

The message information read/write control device 6 receives message information from the system monitoring control device 1, adds the contents of a write message counter T for specifying a message sequence number to be added in the order of occurrence of the message information to the message information, and writes the message. Create information records. Therefore, the message information read/write control device 6 writes the message information record to the memory area of the storage device 6 specified by the write message address register 8 for specifying the write address of the storage device 6. If the contents of the write message address register 8 are updated beyond the memory area for one write, the message information read/write
The write control device 5 returns to the first address of the memory area and executes the update.

The contents of the write message counter 7 are updated in the same manner as the write message address register 8, and the contents of the write message counter 7 are updated.
When the maximum value is reached, the contents of the write message counter 7 are reset on the IK. After the above processing, the message information writing process to the memory ends.

Next, the message information read/write control device 5 receives the message information display request and the requested message sequence number from the display request input device 2, and the message information read/write control device 5 inputs the requested message sequence number to the read message counter 9. -t set, sets the contents of the write message address register 8 to the read message address register 1o. To determine whether there is a message sequence number of a message information record in the memory storage device f6 that matches the contents of the read message counter 9, the message information read/write control device 5 counts up the message sequence number of this kind of message information record. Insert in the direction. If a matching message information record is found, the message information is passed to the message information editing control device f4, and the message information is edited and output according to the message display device 3.

If there is no matching message information record, it is assumed that there is no corresponding message information and the system waits for the next message display request.

With the above steps, the message display process is completed.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, the present invention enables execution/status information of a system monitoring and control device of a computer system to be displayed at any time in any message display device by storing message information on a storage device. This has the effect that it can be displayed quickly.
