B.4 System Messages

This appendix describes DECprint Supervisor installation messages.

B.4.1 System Message Overview

DCPS system messages have one of the following formats:

%fac-s-ident, text
-fac-s-ident, text
Code Meaning
% The prefix for all primary messages
- The prefix for all continuation messages
fac The facility code, which should be DCPS
s The severity level of the message
ident An abbreviation of the message text
text The expanded text of the message

The severity levels of DECprint Supervisor system messages are defined as follows:
Code Meaning
S Success --- successful completion of the request
I Informational --- may require user action
W Warning --- request may not have completed and may require user action
E Error --- system encountered an error that may be recoverable
F Fatal --- system encountered a fatal error and cannot continue processing this request

B.4.2 DCPS Installation Messages

The following DCPS message descriptions are alphabetized by the ident portion of the message. The message severity level and text are also shown, while the prefix and facility designation (DCPSppp are omitted. If you receive a message from a facility other than DCPS, refer to the HP OpenVMS System Messages: Companion Guide for Help Message Users for the message description or use the online help message utility with the command HELP /MESSAGE.

E-BADSPEC, File spec LPS$SINGLEHOLES.LUP cannot be parsed
Explanation: The current definition of the logical name DCPS$LAYUP is invalid, possibly because of an incorrect answer given to the question about the location of layup files in an earlier DCPS installation. (DCPS V1.6 and later now validate such responses; see the Release Notes for more information.)
User Action: Deassign the logical name with the command:


    $ DEASSIGN /EXECUTIVE_MODE /SYSTEM DCPS$LAYUP

Then start the DCPS installation again and you will be prompted for the location for the layup files.

E-BADVMSVER, This product requires OpenVMS version version or later to install
Explanation: The DCPS software requires a later version of the OpenVMS operating system.
User Action: Upgrade your operating system to the correct version.

I-ESTTIME, This installation will take between 1 and 10 minutes, I-ESTTIME, excluding time needed to stop and restart active queues.

User Action: No action is required.

W-HIDES, If these files remain, they will be used instead of the W-HIDES, DCPS product files you are installing now, and the IVP
Explanation: DCPS warns you that the existing DCPS files in SYS$SPECIFIC directories will be used instead of the latest ones.
User Action: Remove or rename the listed DCPS files from the SYS$SPECIFIC directories.

E-INVDIRSPE, invalid directory specification
Explanation: The syntax of the directory specified is not correct.
User Action: Specify a directory with correct syntax.

I-LAYUPDEF, DCPS$LAYUP is already defined. I-LAYUPDEF, This installation will use its value.

Explanation: The queue manager is not running on your system. The installation will continue, but the Installation Verification Procedure cannot run.
User Action: After the installation, start the queue manager and then manually invoke the IVP ( @SYS$TEST:DCPS$IVP ).

I-NOQUEST, No further questions will be asked
Explanation: The VMSINSTAL procedure will continue from this point without requiring further input from you.
User Action: No action is required.

W-NORSTRT, Automatically stopped queues have not been restarted
Explanation: VMSINSTAL has not restarted queues that it automatically stopped.

Explanation: This message informs you of the number of DCPS queues you have and how many of them are active (that is, not stopped).
User Action: No action is required.

W-PURGW, Purging files may leave running queues with no image file and the IVP may fail.
Explanation: Purging DCPS files while multistream DCPS symbionts are still active can cause problems.
User Action: Avoid purging existing files, or stop all active queues before proceeding with the installation.

%DCPSVAX-I-NUMQUEUES, 4 existing DCPS queues, with 3 active 
 
        Previously installed DCPS queues are still running. 
        Continuing this installation without entering 
        STOP/QUEUE/RESET for each such queue can cause 
        inconsistent behavior among queues and can cause 
        the IVP to fail. 
 
        Note that if you choose to have this installation 
        procedure automatically stop such queues, and the 
        installation subsequently aborts, this procedure 
        will not automatically restart them. 
 
* Do you want these queues automatically stopped and restarted [YES]? 
 
* Do you want to purge files replaced by this installation [YES]?

Software installer: 
 
        Starting with DCPS V2.0, the need for DCPS-OPEN and DCPS-PLUS 
        licenses has been eliminated.  The right to use all features of 
        DCPS is now included with the OpenVMS operating system license. 
 
        Please remember to copy SYS$STARTUP:DCPS$STARTUP.TEMPLATE to 
        SYS$STARTUP:DCPS$STARTUP.COM.  Then edit the resulting copy, 
        following the instructions contained within it, to define 
        your DCPS environment and queue characteristics.  When done, 
        execute the file to establish and start the DCPS queues. 
        Also remember to edit SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM so that 
        DCPS$STARTUP.COM is automatically run at system startup time. 
 
        DCPS$STARTUP.COM should be executed after all printer devices 
        and interconnects are running.  Below is a summary list: 
 
          printers via TCP/IP:      after TCP is started 
          printers via LAT:         after LAT devices are created 
          printers via AppleTalk:   after the AppleTalk driver is loaded 
          PrintServers via DECnet:  after DECnet is started 
 
        If you are converting CPS queues to DCPS, you may want to run 
        the utility SYS$STARTUP:CPS_TO_DCPS_STARTUP.COM instead of 
        editing the startup template.  This utility will read your 
        CPS startup file, change the queue definitions to use DCPS$SMB 
        and its library and logical names, and write out a new DCPS 
        startup file. 
 
%VMSINSTAL-I-MOVEFILES, Files will now be moved to their target directories...
