Error Messages
This appendix gives a list of the error and advisory messages that are displayed by
ViewPoint. (An advisory message, in contrast to an error message, advises the operator
of successful completion of an operation or tells the operator what step to perform next.)
Each error or advisory message has an associated message number. However, these
numbers are displayed only for error messages; the number is not displayed for advisory
messages. Advisory messages are identified by an (A) in this list.
The messages are displayed on line 20 or 21 of the block-mode screens. In the case of
error messages, the message number follows the text of the message. Some error
messages are displayed with two numbers; a number that provides additional internal
error information, such as a file-system error number, can follow the ViewPoint error
number.
For example, error messages are displayed in the following formats for errors 6 and 205:
Select lines to clip. Then press F10. 0006
Status collection server send error: 0205 0001
Error 6 has only the ViewPoint error number; error 205 has an additional number. This
second number is a SCREEN COBOL SEND error. Explanations of errors associated
with the additional error numbers can be found in the following manuals:

Fatal server error messages are reported to $0 and appear on the console log. These
messages provide a P-register trace call location for a process that abnormally ends
because of an error. In this case, the first number is the current location. You can use
LMAP to identify the procedure and the offset of the error in the program. The
following is an example:
\MASTER.$Z117 : EVCOLL: error during initialization 0336
\MASTER.$Z117 : P-REG TRACE %006551 %005343 %000232
