IPC-RETN-CODE-DETAIL
Errors
A value other than 0 in the IPC-RETN-CODE-DETAIL field of the IPC header indicates
that, although the data in the IPC header was correct, an error was detected by the
GUARDIAN 90 operating system. The meaning of this error also depends upon the
content of the IPC-RETN-CODE field. For information about these particular errors,
refer to the GUARDIAN 90 Operating System Programmer's Guide.
RETN-CODE Errors A value of 0 in the RETN-CODE field of the UOW header indicates that no errors
occurred during the processing of the particular UOW.
Any other value in this field is one of the following:
An error code—A positive value denotes that the UOW could not be processed
because of an error.
A warning code—A negative value denotes that the UOW contained an anomaly,
but the UOW was processed successfully despite the anomaly.
Error code text for these errors begins with E and warning code text begins with W.
The range within which the error or warning code number falls indicates which
process detected the anomaly, as Table 3-2 indicates.
Table 3-2. Ranges for Error and Warning Code Numbers
Range Process
4000 through 4399 TRANSFER interactive server (TISERV)
4500 through 4561 TRANSFER format server
4600 through 4699 TRANSFER asynchronous processes
4900 through 4999 GUARDIAN 90 file system
5000 through 5199 ADMIN errors
5200 through 5299 TMANAGER client errors
5600 through 5799 TRANSFER name server
5800 through 5899 TRANSFER text facility
6000 through 6099 TRANSFER queue manager
6100 through 6199 TRANSFER depot storage statistics facility
6200 through 6399 WPLINK translator
6400 through 6499 TRANSFER system management server
8000 through 8400 WPLINK Batch Gateway
The TRANSFER delivery system issues RETN-CODE errors in the range 4000 through
6099. This section lists only those codes returned by UOWs in the RETN-CODE field
or written by TAREQs in the DELIV-ERR field of recipient records. Other codes in this
range can be generated by Tandem Mail clients (PS MAIL); the messages associated
with these codes appear in the manuals covering those clients.
