BER
• BERIO
When the BER is created by the NCP/EP, the 10 identifies the most probable
cause of event (control program, hardware, or microcode) and the program
level that created the error/event record.
When the BER is created by the MOSS, the 10 identifies the origin of the
error or the event (MOSS interrupt level, disk support, and so on).
For MOSS BERs, the event categories are found in another field called
MOSS CHECK code or ERROR code.
Where to Find More BER Information
The Error Logging chapter of the Hardware Maintenance Reference manual,
SY33-2066, gives detailed information concerning the BERs, including all pos-
