Error message table HPUX

HI all,
I'm used for HP-UX operting system on HP-Stratus server.
Sometime server shows error and warning messages on /var/adm/syslog.

Do you have any document that is explained HP-UX system log messages ? ? ? .

Hello Ganaa.
There are lots of error messages out there, too many to keep track of.

What error error message is your server displaying ?.

I don't know of any manual that explains syslog error messages.
Knowledge is power.

Re: Error message table HPUX

Hi Ganaa,
Sorry, there is no complete list of all the messages, partly because any application may log there, and I don't think HP documents even just the kernel ones (new ones could be added at any time, anyway).

What is it you need to know for? Most messages should be reasonably self-explanatory, if it's understanding them that's the issue. If they are not clear, contact HP support to let them know and ask their assistance

Re: Error message table HPUX

AS mentioned, syslog can contain messages from dozens of different sources including your own messages using the logger program. Although some mainframe computer systems provide message catalogs, even these tend to become outdated with patches or add-ons. The best source for decoding the various messages is to look in the ITRC knowledge base. Note that without a software support contract, only a subset of the papers and technical notes are visible. With a software contract, you'll not only see all the articles but also the ability to talk to an HP engineer to decode any of the messages.

Re: Error message table HPUX

Hi Ganaa,
I'm almost certain those are Stratus specific log messages, so HP wouldn't have those documented anyway. I think you need to check the Stratus documentation or talk to your Stratus support contact. Sorry not to be able to help more.

Re: Error message table HPUX

You likely have a hardware problem and you'll have to contact Stratus service to fix it.
