Diagnostic Messages
You can stop any of the utilities by pressing the Break key. This action is acknowledged
by the following message:
task
the action (specific to each utility) in process when the break key was pressed:
system-name
is the Expand node name for the system on which the utility stopped.
Utility-name
is the name of the utility issuing the message.
The same message appears, preceded by error diagnostic information, if a utility must
stop because of an internally detected error.
Diagnostic Messages
All the OSS EasySetup utilities issue a banner display message and progress and
error messages that are intended to be self-explanatory. OSSSETUP writes diagnostic
messages to its journal file as well as to these files. Progress messages are written to
the user’s home terminal.
If the Event Management Service (EMS) event definition files ZOSSTACL and
ZEMSTACL have been installed in the ZSPIDEF subvolume of $SYSTEM, the
T0585AAA version of the utilities also writes progress messages to the system service
log ($ZLOG), and to the EMS collector process $0. Beginning with the T0585AAB
version, the utilities suppress progress messages as EMS events unless the
EASYSETUP^EMSVOL PARAM has been defined.
Progress messages have the form:
where COMPLETED indicates successful completion of a task, while FAILED indicates
that the task could not be completed.
Break or error terminated operation.
task of the OSS subsystem on system-name: FAILED
Utility-name terminated unexpectedly or encountered errors.
