Messages and Codes - e IBM Tivoli Composite - IBM

Chapter 1. Introduction
Message Format
This manual explains all the error, warning, and information messages, as well as
the user abend codes and reason codes, that Tivoli OPC issues.
The messages are listed in alphanumeric order by message identifier. To help you
find messages, the range of messages on a particular page is shown at the top of
the page.
Tivoli OPC messages have the following formats:
EQQFnnnC Text or EQQFFnnC Text or EQQnnnnC Text
where:
EQQ Means that the message was issued by Tivoli OPC. The
EQQ prefix is used for all Tivoli OPC messages.
F or FF Identifies the function that issued the message.
nn, nnn, or nnnn Is the message number
C Is the message severity code, with one of these values:
I Information message. Processing continues and, in
almost all cases, no action by the user is required.
W Warning message. Processing continues and, in most
cases, no action by the user is required.
E Error message. Processing terminates, and action by
the user is required.
Text Is the message text, which can vary in length. The text may
contain message variables that are substituted at run time or
when the message is issued. In this book, message variables
are represented by asterisks (***) or italic text.
Where Messages Are Presented
The messages described in this book can be presented in two ways:
In the “long message” area on an Interactive System Productivity Facility (ISPF)
panel. This message is displayed if you enter HELP after a message is issued
in the “short message” area on the panel. The ISPF long message area is
normally the third line on the ISPF panel. All Tivoli OPC dialog messages that
are presented in this area have mixed-case text.
As one or more records in the Tivoli OPC message-log dataset. The message
log is defined by the EQQMLOG DD statement. The message log is used by
the Tivoli OPC started task and by Tivoli OPC's own batch jobs. Any message
in the message log can also be displayed as a write-to-operator message.
