EMT Overview

The SFM includes a user component called EMT, which enables you to view the error messages

that are generated on an HP-UX 11i v3 system. The EMT includes Common Error Repository (CER),

which is an online, searchable, and updateable error repository. The CER contains error metadata.

Error metadata is collective information about an error such as error description, error number,

error type, severity, cause of the error, and corrective actions. The EMT also includes the cerupdate

tool, which enables you to update CER with product specific error information.

The EMT supports the following user interfaces:

• Browser-based Graphical User Interface (GUI)

• Command-Line Interface (CLI)
