FCOPY displays three types of messages: error messages, warning messages, and status messages.

  • Error messages terminate an FCOPY command during a session or the FCOPY subsystem during a job.

  • Warning messages do not terminate FCOPY, but during a job, they set the job control word (JCW) to WARN.

  • Status messages supply you with information while FCOPY is copying a file.

Display During Sessions

During a session, FCOPY displays messages and their reference numbers on your terminal. For example: 

    *54* SYNTAX ERROR: UNKNOWN OPTION
If the error involves a file, FCOPY asks you whether you want to display the file information. For example, if you try to copy a nonexistent file named THISFILE to a file named THATFILE, FCOPY displays the following message: 

    *105* CANNOT OPEN FROMFILE
    DISPLAY FILE INFORMATION (Y OR N)?
Answer "yes" by pressing Y and then Return, or answer "no" by pressing N and Return. If you answer "yes", FCOPY displays the corresponding file system error message and file information. In the example above, the following display appears: 

    NONEXISTENT PERMANENT FILE (FSERR 52)
    +-F-I-L-E---I-N-F-O-R-M-A-T-I-O-N---D-I-S-P-L-A-Y+
    !                                               !
    !    ERROR NUMBER:     52 RESIDUE: 0            !
    !    BLOCK NUMBER:     0     NUMREC: 0          !
    +-----------------------------------------------+
Refer to the MPE/iX Intrinsics Reference Manual for a complete description of the file information display.

Display During Jobs

During a job, FCOPY displays warning and error messages on the standard listing device. It does not give you the option of displaying file information. When FCOPY encounters a potential problem with a file, it assumes that the command was submitted as you intended and attempts to perform the requested operation.

Types of Messages

This appendix lists, in numeric order, all FCOPY messages, their causes, and the actions you should take to correct them.

Three types of messages may be received: error, warning, and status messages.

  • Errors encountered during a job stream cause FCOPY to terminate. However, only the command is terminated if the errors occur during a session.

  • Warnings do not cause an FCOPY command to terminate. In a job, they set the JCW to WARN.

  • Status messages do not indicate errors, but simply provide information about what is happening during the copying operation.

The following table lists the FCOPY error, warning, and status messages in numerical order, along with a brief definition of each message and the recommended corrective action, where applicable.
