The errors file contains system error and log-msg messages used to determine how the system is functioning.
er
system-errors
The item-IDs are 13-digit date/time stamps (5-digit date, plus 5-digit time), plus an alphabetical character for multiple creations within a second.
The specific types of errors that generate messages are:
Logoff commands
System errors
Shutdown
Coldstart
The attributes for the errors file are:

| 2 | user | The user of the error logging
process. Warning: For Windows: if D3 is started
as a service on Windows or the USERNAME environment is not set, then
the user-ID cannot be determined. In this case, the user-ID will show
as "<service or unknown">.
|
|||
| 3 | r | Register triggering the error. | |||
| 4 | mode-addr | Contains the error message and the mode address when the error occurred. | |||

| 17 | rtime | ||||
| 18 | rcount | ||||
| 19 | message | ||||
| 20 | registers or OSFI error information |
Process register image. OSFI error information. Includes:
|
|||
| 21 | run-stack | Process execution stack. | |||
| 22 | last-tcl-entry | The last three TCL stack entries. | |||
| 23 | File inconsistency-fid | Contains four values: | |||
| 1 | Frame-ID of the group containing the file inconsistency. | ||||
| 2 | Address (in storage register format) of the item where the file inconsistency was detected. | ||||
| 3 | Forward link of the frame in which the file inconsistency occurred. | ||||
| 4 | Backward link of the same frame. | ||||
| 24 | File inconsistency-file | The path name of the file in which the file inconsistency was found. | |||
For UNIX: On D3 UNIX, the error log for a disk error, attribute 23, is ee dd 0000 00 00 ffffffff xx where
| ee | UNIX error code (value of errno). |
| dd | Logical disk number, as defined in configuration file. |
| ffffffff | Frame number, in hexadecimal. |
| xx | command: 00=read, 01=write. |
The other fields are unused. Depending on the implementation, some other information can be obtained from the UNIX error log (errpt) or for Linux, it is /var/log/message.
For Windows: Not supported.
The following data-levels exist under the errors file:
| gfe | Additional information is captured in the errors,gfe data section in an item that has the same item-ID as the error that is logged in the errors file. |
| ovf | Displays the frame that captured the overflow error. |
| pcb | The pcb image is captured in the errors,pcb data section for some errors. |
