Message format
SMP/E messages (except for WTO, WTP, and WTOR messages) are in
the format GIMnnnnnv yy text. WTO, WTP,
and WTOR messages are in the format GIMnnnv yy text.
- n…n is the message number.
- v is the severity level, as follows:
Severity Level Return Code Category When Issued I 00 Informational - To show stages of SMP/E processing.
- To accompany other messages as an explanation for errors or unusual conditions.
W 04 Warning - Processing completed but SMP/E detected a possible error.
Look at these messages to determine if SMP/E's action was appropriate.
E 08 Error - SMP/E processing did not complete properly.At least one SYSMOD
failed.
For example, when APPLY processing of a SYSMOD stops,this is an error, and SMP/E issues a return code of at least 8.
S 12 Severe - An entire SMP/E command failed.
For example, when APPLY processing stops because of insufficient storage, SMP/E issues a return code of 12.
T 16 Terminating - A situation occurred that forced SMP/E processing to stop.
T 20 Terminating - An internal SMP/E error caused SMP/E processing to stop.
For example, there may be an interface problem between SMP/E modules or a data error on the SMPCSI data set.
SMP/E sets the severity level of a message and the return code at the same time. If a message does not cause SMP/E to set a return code, the severity level of that message is I.
- yy is the severity highlighting code,
as follows:
- Blanks
- Severity I and W messages
- **
- Severity E, S, and T messages
Note: The yy value is not shown in this information because it varies from message to message. - text is the message text.
