Error Message Formats

There is one error message format for the PowerVault 51F system whether you are
gathering information from the local RS-232 serial port or using a remote Telnet
session.
In all cases, the last error encountered is the first error displayed. Up to 32 messages
are held in a buffer. If the 32 message limit is exceeded, the messages are overwrit-
ten in a first in, first out sequence.
The errShow command displays all detected errors. The output provides additional
information over the front panel display. The following information is displayed in
Figure A-1:
•
There are two errors which have been detected.
•
The task ID and task name that incurred the error (task names are displayed
using the i command).
•
The error type, date and time, the error level, and description.
•
If there is more than one occurrence of an error type, the number of occurrences
is shown in brackets following the error level.
NOTE: The error counter goes to a maximum of 999.
The display halts after each error is displayed, prompting you to either press <Enter>
to continue or type a Q to quit. Continue pressing <Enter> until the prompt => is
displayed.
