In the case of a cold start with no checkpoint files, the following message, which requires a YES/NO (Y/N) response, is issued:

PowerExchange Condense issues messages during startup that indicate the progress of the start or restart operation. Usually, the last of these messages is:

This message appears just before PowerExchange Condense goes into its main loop waiting for events. Alternatively error messages are issued in the event of startup problems.

When shutting down, PowerExchange Condense issues messages PWX-06065 and PWX-06039, which indicate that collection has ended with a specified highest portion of the log reached, and that the capture system is shutting down.

Throughout the rest of a capture, the controller task issues little or no output, unless tracing is switched on. The trace literal is “CONTROLLER.” There are a variety of trace levels reflecting importance and severity of information.
