each event message under the "Event Numbers Definition Table":
ZEMS-TKN-NAME-MANAGER identifies the manager process name
ZEMS-TKN-SUPPRESS-DISPLAY indicates if event is to be displayed
ZEMS-TKN-EMPHASIS indicates if event is critical
Every event message also contains one or more event-specific
tokens listed under the heading "Event-specific ... tokens" of
the "Description of EMS event tokens" section earlier. The
event-specific tokens that apply to an event are listed here.
List of internal tokens.
Internal tokens are tokens that are used by this subsystem only,
like for debugging a program problem. These tokens are not
intended for management applications and could change at any
time. "None" means this event message has no internal tokens.
Event-Message text.
This describes the display text of an event. "use standard
display" means the display described in Description of Standard
EMS Templates on page 9-34 in the EMS Manual, with no
modification, is to be used to display the event; otherwise the
"display" is included here with these notations:
"<nn>" refers to the token that has the same <nn> notation in
the "Unconditional Tokens" or "Conditional Tokens" heading
above.
"<*>" refers to a standard EMS token that is defined by the
standard Template.
The event message text is specified by the EMS Template file of
this subsystem.
Cause.
This describes what caused this subsystem to generate the event
message.
Effect.
This explains the effect this event has on the system. "None"
means the event has no effect on the system.
Recovery Procedures.
This describes how one can solve the problem reported by the
event message. "Informative message only; no corrective action
is needed" means the event only reports status information and
no recovery action is needed.
Other considerations.
This describes the special considerations that are needed to
interpret or use the event message. If this subsection is
absent, it means no special consideration for the event message.
