Preface

Intended Audience
This document is intended for users who need to transfer data between
foreign volumes and VAX/VMS volumes.

Structure of This Document
This document is composed of three major sections.
The Format Section is an overview of the Exchange Utility (EXCHANGE) and
is intended as a quick reference guide. The format summary contains the
DCL command that invokes EXCHANGE, listing all command and positional

qualifiers and parameters. The usage summary describes how to invoke and
exit from EXCHANGE, how to direct output, and any restrictions you should
be aware of. The command summary lists all commands and qualifiers that
can be used within the Exchange Utility.
The Description Section explains how to use EXCHANGE.
The Command Section describes each EXCHANGE command and the
qualifiers that the command supports. The commands appear in alphabetical
order.

Associated Documents
The Guide to VAX/VMS Disk and Magnetic Tape Operations provides
task-oriented instructions for performing EXCHANGE operations on private
volumes.

The Guide to VAX/VMS System Management and Daily Operations includes
system management tasks that use the Exchange Utility.
The Guide to VAXclusters includes examples that show the use of EXCHANGE
in a VAXcluster environment.

Privileges/Restrictions

‘You must have SYSPRYV privilege to run the Error Log Utility. However, only
read access is required to access the file ERRORLOG.SYS. (It is not necessary
to rename the file ERRORLOG.SYS to ERRORLOG.OLD before using the
Error Log Utility.)

DESCRIPTION The Error Log Utility is a system management tool that selectively reports the
contents of one or more error log files.

The VAX/VMS system automatically writes messages to the latest version
of an error log file named SYSSERRORLOG:ERRLOG.SYS as the following
events occur:

Errors—Device errors, device timeouts, machine checks, bus errors,
memory errors (hard or soft error correcting code (ECC) errors),
asynchronous write errors, undefined interrupts, and bugchecks.

Volume changes—Volume mounts and dismounts

System events—Cold start-ups, warm start-ups, system failure (crash)

start-ups, messages from the Send Message to Error Logger ($SSNDERR)
system service, or time stamps.

The Error Log Utility processes error log entries by selection to produce six
forms of optional output:

A full report of selected entries. This is the default.

A brief report of selected entries.

A summary report of selected entries.

A register dump report of selected device entries.

A binary copy of selected entries.

A binary copy of rejected entries.

These forms of output can be directed to a terminal for display or to a disk
or magnetic tape file with the /OUTPUT qualifier. By default, the output is
directed to the SYSSOUTPUT device. The report formats can be changed by
specifying /FULL, /BRIEF, /SUMMARY, /REGISTER_DUMP, /REJECTED,
or /BINARY.

Error log entries are processed by selection for the interval specified by
the /SINCE, /BEFORE, or /ENTRY qualifiers. The selection qualifiers
/INCLUDE and /EXCLUDE form a filter which is used to determine which
error log entries to select or reject.

ERR-2

ERROR LOG
Description

All Error Log Utility reports are 72 columns wide, so that they can be
displayed at the terminal. Note that these reports are primarily intended
to assist DIGITAL Field Service personnel. However, in some cases, they can
assist in system management by identifying recurrent failures that indicate
outside attention is required.
The Error Log Utility will issue error messages for inconsistent error log

entries. The VAX/VMS System Messages and Recovery Procedures Reference
Manual lists these messages and provides explanations and suggested user
actions.

The Example Section shows the format of a typical error log report.

DESCRIPTION The /BINARY qualifier creates a binary file that contains copies of the
original binary error log entry—if selected because of the interval (/SINCE,
/BEFORE, and /ENTRY qualifiers) and filter (/INCLUDE and /EXCLUDE

qualifiers) specified. If no interval or filter is specified, then all error log
entries are copied.

If you specify /BINARY=file-spec, the selected output file will contain image
copies of the binary input records (the records will not be translated to
ASCI). If you omit the device or directory specification, the current device

and the default directory are used. If you omit the filename, then the file
name of the input file is used. If you omit the file type, the file type is DAT.

Do not use /BINARY with the /FULL, /BRIEF, /OUTPUT, /REGISTER_
DUMP, or /SUMMARY qualifiers. These qualifiers generate an ASCII report;
/BINARY generates a binary file.

/SINCE [=date-time]
date-time
Limits the error report to those entries dated later than the specified time.

DESCRIPTION

Only absolute date-time specifications are valid. See the VAX/VMS DCL
Dictionary for details on specifying times.

If you omit the /SINCE qualifier, all entries are processed. If you specify
/SINCE without a date-time, the default is TODAY.

EXAMPLE
§ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/SINCE=22-MAR-1985-15:00 ERRLOG.OLD;56

The error log report generated from ERRLOG.OLD;56 will contain entries that
have been logged since 15:00 on March 22, 1985.

ERR-21

ERROR LOG
/STATISTICS

/STATISTICS
Generates run-time statistical information.

/SUMMARY

/SUMMARY
Generates an error log report that consists of a statistical summary.

FORMAT

/SUMMARY [=summary-type],...]]
/NOSUMMARY

qualifier

summary-type

parameter

The keyword for the selected type of summary.

DESCRIPTION

You may select the type of summary by specifying one or more of the
following keywords:

Keyword

Meaning

DEVICE

Include the Device Summary section in the report.

ENTRY

Include the Summary of Entries Logged section in the report.

HISTOGRAM

Include the Processed Entries Hour of Day Histogram in the
report.

MEMORY

Include the Summary of Memory Errors section in the report.

VOLUME

Include the Volume Label section in the report.

Note: If you specify /SUMMARY without a summary-type, the report contains
all the summary types listed above. If only a summary report is desired,
the command line must specify both the /NOFULL qualifier and the
/SUMMARY qualifier.
No attempt should be made to correlate the error counts reported by the DCL

command SHOW ERROR and the /SUMMARY qualifier. The discrepancy in
these numbers could be due to any number of system events. For example, if
an error occurs on a disk, the error is included in the summary report and the
error count for the disk is incremented. The system may then attempt to retry
the operation and, if another error occurs, only the error count for the disk is
incremented; this second error is not included in the summary report.
Do not use the /BINARY qualifier with /SUMMARY.

EXAMPLES

& ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/SUMMARY ERRLOG.OLD;§

The output generated by this command will include a full report and a
summary report of all entries in ERRLOG.OLD;5.

$ ANALYZE/ERROR_LOG/NOFULL/SUMMARY ERRLOG.OLD;5
The output generated by this command will consist of only a summary report
of all entries in ERRLOG.OLD;5.

ERROR LOG
REPORT
An error log report entry contains two sections: identification and devicedependent data. The identification section consists of the first four lines of
the report. It is generated for all reports. The device-dependent data section,
which follows the identification section, contains information on the selected
error log entries.

The first line of the identification section identifies the error entry number.
This number can be used to refer to a particular error log entry in a error

log file. The second line contains the error sequence number and the system
identification value. The error sequence number is a value assigned by the
operating system to an error log entry to help determine if error log entries

are being lost. This sequence number value will be reset to zero only when
the system is rebooted. The third and fourth lines of this section specify the
type of error log entry being reported, the date and time the entry was made,

the processor type and revision level, and the system serial number.

The first line of the device-dependent data section may identify the device
or subsystem on which the error occurred. The remainder of this section
may consist of hardware information, which shows the contents of the device
registers, and software information, which shows the contents of the I/O

database at the time of the error.
The following output report is an example of the type generated by device
errors, device attention, and device timeouts from a disk on the system.

Time Stamp, Volume Mount, and Volume Dismount Entries Examples
The following are examples of a system time stamp entry and volume mount

and dismount entries. The time stamp entry contains only an identification
section, which is logged by the operating system at 10 minute intervals. If no

other error log entries are made during the 10 minute period, the previous
time stamp is overwritten with the current time stamp at the end of the
period.

The mount volume entry contains an identification section followed by a
device-dependent data section. The device-dependent data section shows

the name of the device the volume is mounted on, the volume label (if the
volume has a label), and the I/O operations and error counts for the device.
The dismount volume entry is almost identical to the mount volume entry. In

addition to the data provided in the volume mount entry, the I/O operations
and error counts for the device the volume was mounted on are also reported.

Machine Check Entries Example

The following are examples of machine check error reports. Each report
consists of three sections: the identification section, the program counter and
summary code section, and an error-dependent section.

The program counter and summary code section of the report displays the

contents of the program counter, the processor status longword, and the
summary code. The contents of the processor status longword and the
summary code are described in the text on the right side of the report.

The remainder of the report (the error-dependent section) consists of CPU-

dependent information that was logged as a result of the machine check.

Memory Error Entries Example
Memory error log entries consist of two types: fatal and nonfatal. A nonfatal
memory error indicates that a single bit has failed within a memory location
and that the ECC (error code correctable) was able to compensate for the error
and correct the data. A fatal error indicates that multiple bits were erroneous

and that the ECC could not correct the data. Both the fatal and nonfatal
memory entries are similar in their format. The memory error log reports can
be divided into two logical areas of information.
The first section of a memory error log report is the identification area. The
second section contains memory controller-specific information. This data

represents the information contained within the memory controller registers
at the time of the memory error. Bit-to-text translation of the registers are
performed, and then listed on the right side of the report.
