5.4 What To Do for a Program Error

The following describes what to do to handle errors that occur in an HDLM program.

Figure 5-3: Troubleshooting Procedure When a Program Error Occurs shows the

troubleshooting procedure.

Figure 5-3: Troubleshooting Procedure When a Program Error Occurs

The following shows the procedure for handling a program error by using the HDLM

command (

dlnkmgr

).

5.4.1 Examining the Messages

Examine the message that is output to syslog in the host. If an error occurs in an HDLM

program, a message other than KAPL08xxx is output to syslog. Examine the content

of the message. Messages with error level

E

(Error) or higher require corrective action.

5.4.2 Obtaining Program Information

Obtain the information that you need to report to your HDLM vendor or maintenance

company.
Use the

DLMgetras

utility for collecting HDLM error information. For details on the

DLMgetras

utility and the information it collects, see 7.2 DLMgetras Utility for

Collecting HDLM Error Information.
Some of the information collected by the

DLMgetras

utility might be cleared when

the host is restarted. Because of this, whenever an error occurs, execute the

DLMgetras

utility as soon as possible.
