<h1 class="topictitle1">Messages</h1>
<div><p>Messages contain the job name, the message type, the date and time
it was sent, the action that occurred, and the necessary actions needed to
fix a problem. This is useful when you are trying to troubleshoot any problems
that might occur on your servers. You can access job logs for server jobs
through iSeries™ Navigator.
Messages fall into two categories, alertable messages and messages logged
in a job log.</p>
<p><span class="uicontrol">Alertable messages</span> - These messages are sent to
QSYSOPR because they need immediate action. The message contains the problem,
the cause, and the recovery action necessary. For example, the server fails
to start or the server ends unexpectedly. Some servers send alertable messages
to QSYSOPR. These messages have the Alert Option (ALROPT) defined in the message
description. You can use alerts to provide centralized handling of alertable
messages.</p>
<p><span class="uicontrol">Messages logged in a job log</span> - These messages are
diagnostic in nature, meaning that they are not critical but are alerting
the user of some action that was taken. These messages can be system generated
as well as user created.</p>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Message logging level</h4><p>The message logging level
determines which messages and what message types should be logged for the
job. The following is an explanation of what each level represents.</p>
