Error detected: An unexpected
event that is nonterminal (such as a
timeout), or is correctable by
human intervention, has occurred.
The program will continue
operation, although some functions
or services may no longer be
available. This severity level may
also be used to indicate that a
particular request or action could
not be completed.
ERROR
____________________________________________________
Correctable error: An error
occurred that was automatically
corrected (for example, a
configuration file was not found,
and default values were used
instead). This severity level may
also be used to indicate a condition
that may be an error if the effects
are undesirable (for example,
removing all files as a side effect of
removing a nonempty directory).
This severity level may also be
used to indicate a condition that, if
not corrected, will eventually
result in an error (for example, a
printer’s running low on paper).
