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

HDLM command (dlnkmgr).

Examining the Messages

Examine the messages that are output to the host syslog. If an error occurs

in an HDLM program, a message is output to syslog. Examine the content of

the message. Messages with error level E (Error) or higher require corrective

action.

Obtaining Program Information

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

maintenance company.

Use the DLMgetras utility to collect the error information. For details on this

utility and the information it collects, see

The DLMgetras Utility for Collecting

HDLM Error Information on page 7-2

.

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.

What To Do for the Program Error

Follow the recommended actions for messages in

Chapter 8, Messages on

page 8-1

If the error occurs again after you thought that you had resolved the

problem, use the dlnkmgr command's view operation to check the status of

the HDLM program, and then do whatever is necessary to resolve the

problem. For details on the view operation, see
