Event Management Service (EMS) Analyzer Manual–133700

5-6

ALLOW

The ALLOW command specifies the maximum number of warnings or errors allowed to

occur during execution of an OBEY file, an IN file, or a command that refers to multiple

objects. If any value is exceeded, EMS Analyzer halts execution of the OBEY file, IN

file, or multiple object command. ALLOW affects only commands that issue multiple

commands or refer to multiple objects.

Use the ALLOW command to continue executing a startup command file despite the

occurrence of errors from inoperable lines or devices. Errors can cause the execution of

the OBEY file to terminate. ALLOW permits the network to be started. The ALLOW

command can be entered interactively or from within an OBEY file.

/OUT file-spec/

causes any EMS Analyzer output generated for this command to be directed to the

specified file.

ALL

indicates that there is no limit on the number of errors or warnings.

indicates that no errors or warnings are allowed.

count

is an integer specifying the number of errors or warnings permitted during the

execution of a command.

ERRORS

declares that the entered command applies to errors only.

WARNINGS

declares that the entered command applies to warnings only.

Considerations

•

If the ALLOW command is not used or if it is entered with no parameters, the

default setting is NO ERRORS and ALL WARNINGS.

•

If ERRORS or WARNINGS is specified but ALL, NO, and count are omitted,

ALL is assumed.

•

If ALL, NO, or count is specified, but ERRORS and WARNINGS are omitted,

ERRORS is assumed.
