Message Overview

Messages reported when installing, configuring, managing, and operating TIBCO Managed File Transfer (MFT) Platform Server for z/OS are classified into four types according to event severity.

The severity is an indication of the level of concern for an event. The message type is abbreviated to the last character in the message identifier. The message type identifiers are: E for error, W for warning, I for information, and D for debug.

Message Type Description
Error (E) An error message typically indicates a failure or critical condition in the execution of an application or system that requires further action.

For example, PGTS0056E: SYNTAX ERROR IN PARM FIELD: xxxx.

Warning (W) A warning message indicates a condition that is not as severe as an error, but might cause problems in the future. It can also be a condition that requires additional monitoring or maintenance.

For example, PGTB4195W: SCRIPT will not be throttled: Use NODE parameter to throttle execution.

Information (I) An information message is recorded for audit purposes, usually a user action or a change of states that are normal operations or conditions.

For example, PGTS0048I: TCPTRAC DD statement opened successfully.

Debug (D) A debug message is a diagnostic message displayed in the debug mode.
For example, PGTS8763D: REPLY -T- to Terminate not waiting for subtasks to end - otherwise shutdown will wait for them to end.
Note: The debug messages are included in the Information Messages section.
