Email of 20-Sep-2019 by David Whitten to Hardhats Does anyone know about the ^XTMP global and the series of nodes apparently created by HL7 ? ie: there are nodes in the ^XTMP() global with a first subscript of either: "HLEV CHK773AC "_<Timson Date+Time> or "HLEV STUB "_<Timson Date+Time> Apparently "HLEV" means Health Level Seven Event Monitoring. The nodes seem to get SET in the HLEVX* routines. The dates on these routines are in February 2004 or so. Notably the HLEV CHK773AC nodes are set in the routine ^HLEVX002 Soon after we copy our Production environment to make a test or training or development environment, there is something that runs and fills up a LOT of journal files. This seems to be run as a background task since the Journal files have a process id that has %ZTMS1 running if it finishes before we notice. The sub-routine LIST^HLEVX lists these "monitors" LIST N I,T W @IOF,$$CJ^XLFSTR("Official VistA HL7 Event Monitor Code",IOM),!,$$ ;; ;;The "monitors" that are officially included in the VistA HL7 package are ;;listed below. ;; ;;Routine Monitor-Name ;;============================================================================ ;;SYSTEM^HLEVX001^EVENT MONITOR ;;CHK870^HLEVX000^STUB 870 SEARCH & MORE ;;CHKXREF^HLEVX002^XREF CHECK - FILE 772 & 773 Q I searched the OPTION File#19 for menus related to Monitoring and found these options: Select OPTION: SEARCH FILE ENTRIES OUTPUT FROM WHAT FILE: TASKS// 19 OPTION (10367 entries) -A- SEARCH FOR OPTION FIELD: ROUTINE -A- CONDITION: [ CONTAINS -A- CONTAINS: HLEV -B- SEARCH FOR OPTION FIELD: IF: A// ROUTINE CONTAINS (case-insensitive) "HLEV" STORE RESULTS OF SEARCH IN TEMPLATE: SORT BY: NAME// START WITH NAME: FIRST// FIRST PRINT FIELD: [CAPTIONED Include COMPUTED fields: (N/Y/R/B): NO// BOTH Computed Fields and Record Number (IEN) Heading (S/C): OPTION SEARCH// DEVICE: TELNET OPTION SEARCH SEP 20,2019 14:27 PAGE 1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NUMBER: 9978 NAME: HLEV EDIT MASTER MENU TEXT: Edit parameters TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER ROUTINE: E7769^HLEVSTUP UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: EDIT PARAMETERS NUMBER: 9979 NAME: HLEV EDIT MASTER ON-OFF MENU TEXT: Turn on/off monitoring TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER ROUTINE: ONOFFPAR^HLEVAPI0 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: TURN ON/OFF MONITORING NUMBER: 9976 NAME: HLEV EDIT MONITOR MENU TEXT: Enter/edit event monitors TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER ROUTINE: E7761^HLEVSTUP UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: ENTER/EDIT EVENT MONITORS NUMBER: 9977 NAME: HLEV EDIT MONITOR ON-OFF MENU TEXT: Turn on/off event monitor TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER ROUTINE: ONOFFEV^HLEVAPI0 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: TURN ON/OFF EVENT MONITOR NUMBER: 9991 NAME: HLEV GRANT REMOTE LICENSE MENU TEXT: Grant remote request license TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER PACKAGE: HEALTH LEVEL SEVEN ROUTINE: OPENMAIL^HLEVSRV3 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: GRANT REMOTE REQUEST LICENSE NUMBER: 9986 NAME: HLEV MASTER JOB NOW MENU TEXT: Run monitor master job now TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER PACKAGE: HEALTH LEVEL SEVEN ROUTINE: MSTNOW^HLEVMST0 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: RUN MONITOR MASTER JOB NOW NUMBER: 9981 NAME: HLEV MASTER JOB START MENU TEXT: Monitoring master job start TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER PACKAGE: HEALTH LEVEL SEVEN ROUTINE: STARTMST^HLEVMST0 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: MONITORING MASTER JOB START NUMBER: 9982 NAME: HLEV MASTER JOB STOP MENU TEXT: Stop monitoring master job TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER PACKAGE: HEALTH LEVEL SEVEN ROUTINE: UNQUEUE^HLEVMST0 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: STOP MONITORING MASTER JOB NUMBER: 9984 NAME: HLEV MONITOR DETAILS MENU TEXT: Results of a monitor run TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER PACKAGE: HEALTH LEVEL SEVEN ROUTINE: CTRL^HLEVREP2 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: RESULTS OF A MONITOR RUN NUMBER: 9983 NAME: HLEV MONITOR MAP REPORT MENU TEXT: Map of monitoring activity TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER PACKAGE: HEALTH LEVEL SEVEN ROUTINE: CTRL^HLEVREP1 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: MAP OF MONITORING ACTIVITY NUMBER: 9980 NAME: HLEV ONE-TIME MONITOR RUN MENU TEXT: One-time monitor run TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER PACKAGE: HEALTH LEVEL SEVEN ROUTINE: ONETIME^HLEVAPI1 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: ONE-TIME MONITOR RUN NUMBER: 9973 NAME: HLEV PRINT MASTER SETUP MENU TEXT: Settings of monitoring parameters TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER ROUTINE: VIEW7769^HLEVREP(1) UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: SETTINGS OF MONITORING PARAMET NUMBER: 9972 NAME: HLEV PRINT MONITOR SETUP MENU TEXT: Monitor setup details TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER ROUTINE: SHOW7761^HLEVREP UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: MONITOR SETUP DETAILS NUMBER: 9989 NAME: HLEV REPORT CONDENSED MONITOR MENU TEXT: Condensed monitor report TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER ROUTINE: CONDMON^HLEVREP0 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: CONDENSED MONITOR REPORT NUMBER: 9988 NAME: HLEV REPORT MONITOR RECIPIENTS MENU TEXT: Message recipients TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER ROUTINE: RECIP^HLEVREP0 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: MESSAGE RECIPIENTS NUMBER: 9990 NAME: HLEV REPORT REMOTE REQUESTABLE MENU TEXT: Remote requestable report TYPE: run routine CREATOR: WVEHR,PATCH INSTALLER ROUTINE: REMREQO^HLEVREP3 UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: REMOTE REQUESTABLE REPORT NUMBER: 9985 NAME: HLEV-INFORMATION-SERVER MENU TEXT: Event monitoring server TYPE: server CREATOR: DEWAYNE,ROBERT PACKAGE: HEALTH LEVEL SEVEN ROUTINE: HLEVSRV SERVER BULLETIN: XQSERVER SERVER ACTION: RUN IMMEDIATELY SERVER MAIL GROUP: HLEV SERVER SERVER AUDIT: NO SUPRESS BULLETIN: YES, SUPRESS IT SERVER REPLY: REPLY ON ERROR ONLY SAVE REQUEST: Do not save request UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: EVENT MONITORING SERVER 17 MATCHES FOUND.

The question I have to ask is why they seem to explode our journal space when we first start up the non-production environment. The burning question is, should we turn this monitor off or leave it on ? Does it matter only in production environments or does it matter in non-production? Does any know if we should be checking these reports regularly ? Are problems with HL7 that these monitors find either common or uncommon ? Thanks for your input.
