When NMMGR encounters an error, it displays a brief message
in the message field of the current screen. In most cases, these
messages provide enough information for you to correct the error
and continue operation. Occasionally, however, you may encounter
a more serious error or the cause of an error may not be readily
apparent. You may then need additional information to understand
the cause of the error.
The Error Information Screen |
 |
The Error Information screen displays the latest error that
NMMGR encountered and associated error messages, if any. To display
the Error Information screen, type ERRORS in
the command window of any screen and press [ENTER].
Note that as many as five levels of error messages can be
displayed in the Error Information screen, depending on where the
error occurred in the software. However, it does not display the
prompts that are a result of entering invalid data types in fields.
Figure 2-2 “Error Information Screen” shows an example
of the error messages displayed on the Error Information screen.
In this case, a user who was not the creator of the configuration
file, tried to compress the file. This action is not allowed. Note
the hierarchy of the errors returned as shown in the example. The
top level is the NMMGR error message; the other levels come from
software accessed by NMMGR.

Error messages associated with the NMMGR program are listed
in Appendix A “NMS Error Messages” of this
manual. Each error message is listed with at least one possible
cause and a recommended action for each cause. You also may need
to refer to the MPE file system and operating system manuals for
explanations of any MPE error messages that may appear on the Error
Information screen.
