<h1 class="topictitle1">SEV parameter</h1>
|
|
<div><p>The severity (SEV) parameter specifies a severity code.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><p>The severity (SEV) parameter specifies the severity code that:</p>
|
|
<ul><li>Describes the level of severity associated with an error message.</li>
|
|
<li>Indicates the minimum severity level that causes a message to be returned
|
|
to a user or program.</li>
|
|
<li>Causes a batch job to end.</li>
|
|
<li>Causes processing of a command to end if a syntax error of sufficient
|
|
severity occurs.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> The LOG parameter on some commands also uses these severity codes
|
|
for logging purposes (to control which job activity messages and error messages
|
|
are logged in the job log).</div>
|
|
<p>The severity code is a 2-digit number
|
|
that can range from 00 through 99. The higher the value, the more severe or
|
|
important the condition. The severity code of a message that is sent to a
|
|
user indicates the severity of the condition described by the message. More
|
|
than one message can have the same severity code. If a severity code is not
|
|
specified for a predefined message, it is assumed to be 00 (information only).</p>
|
|
<p>You
|
|
can specify a severity code for any message when it is defined by the <span class="cmdname">Add
|
|
Message Description (ADDMSGD)</span> command. To change the severity code
|
|
of a message, use the <span class="cmdname">Change Message Description (CHGMSGD)</span> command.</p>
|
|
<p>IBM<sup>®</sup> -defined
|
|
severity codes are used in all of the IBM -supplied messages that are shipped
|
|
with the system.</p>
|
|
<dl><dt class="dlterm"><em>00 - Information:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>A message of this severity is for information purposes only; no error
|
|
was detected and no reply is needed. The message could indicate that a function
|
|
is in progress or that it has reached a successful completion.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><em>10 - Warning:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>A message of this severity indicates a potential error condition. The
|
|
program may have taken a default, such as supplying missing input. The results
|
|
of the operation are assumed to be what was intended.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><em>20 - Error:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>An error has been detected, but it is one for which automatic recovery
|
|
procedures probably were applied, and processing has continued. A default
|
|
may have been taken to replace input that was in error. The results of the
|
|
operation may not be valid. The function may be only partially complete; for
|
|
example, some items in a list may be processed correctly while others may
|
|
fail.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><em>30 - Severe Error:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>The error detected is too severe for automatic recovery, and no defaults
|
|
are possible. If the error was in source data, the entire input record was
|
|
skipped. If the error occurred during program processing, it leads to an abnormal
|
|
end of the program (severity 40). The results of the operation are not valid.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><em>40 - Abnormal End of Program or Function:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>The operation has ended, possibly because it was unable to handle invalid
|
|
data, or possibly because the user ended it.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><em>50 - Abnormal End of Job:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>The job was ended or was not started. A routing step may have ended abnormally
|
|
or failed to start, a job-level function may not have been performed as required,
|
|
or the job may have been ended.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"> <em>60 - System Status:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>A message of this severity is issued only to the system operator. It gives
|
|
either the status of or a warning about a device, a subsystem, or the whole
|
|
system.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><em>70 - Device Integrity:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>A message of this severity is issued only to the system operator. It indicates
|
|
that a device is malfunctioning or in some way is no longer operational. You
|
|
may be able to restore system operation, or the assistance of a service representative
|
|
may be required.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><em>80 - System Alert:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>A message of this severity is issued only to the system operator. It warns
|
|
of a condition that, although not severe enough to stop the system now, could
|
|
become more severe unless preventive measures are taken.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><em>90 - System Integrity:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>A message of this severity is issued only to the system operator. It describes
|
|
a condition that renders either a subsystem or the whole system inoperative.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><em>99 - Action:</em></dt>
|
|
<dd>A message of this severity indicates that some manual action is required,
|
|
such as specifying a reply or changing printer forms.</dd>
