| -i File |
Uses the error log file specified by the File variable. If this flag is not specified, the value from the error log configuration database is used. |
| -j ErrorID[,ErrorID] |
Includes only the error-log entries specified by the ErrorID (error identifier) variable. The ErrorID variables can be separated by , (commas), or enclosed in "" (double quotation marks) and separated by , (commas) or space characters. When combined with the -t flag, entries are processed from the error-template repository. (Otherwise entries are processed from the error-log repository.) |
| -k ErrorID[,ErrorID] |
Excludes the error-log entries specified by the ErrorID variable. The ErrorID variables can be separated by , (commas), or enclosed in "" (double quotation marks) and separated by , (commas) or space characters. When combined with the -t flag, entries are processed from the error-template repository. (Otherwise entries are processed from the error-log repository.) |
| -l SequenceNumber |
Selects a unique error-log entry specified by the SequenceNumber variable. This flag is used by methods in the error-notification object class. The SequenceNumber variable can be separated by , (commas), or enclosed in "" (double quotation marks) and separated by , (commas) or space characters. |
| -m Machine |
Includes error-log entries for the specified Machine variable. The uname -m command returns the Machine variable value. |
| -n Node |
Includes error-log entries for the specified Node variable. The uname -n command returns the Node variable value. |
| -s StartDate |
Specifies all records posted on and after the StartDate variable, where the StartDate variable has the form mmddhhmmyy (month, day, hour, minute, and year). |
| -t |
Processes the error-record template repository instead of the error log. The -t flag can be used to view error-record templates in report form. |
|
-y File |
Uses the error record template file specified by the File variable. When combined with the -t flag, entries are processed from the specified error template repository. (Otherwise, entries are processed from the error log repository, using the specified error template repository.) |
|
-z File |
Uses the error logging message catalog specified by the File variable. When combined with the -t flag, entries are processed from the error template repository. (Otherwise, entries are processed from the error log repository.) |
| -F FlagList |
Selects error-record templates according to the value of the Alert, Log, or Report field of the template. The FlagList variable can be separated by , (commas), or enclosed in "" (double quotation marks) and separated by , (commas) or space characters. The -F flag is used with the -t flag only.
Valid values of the FlagList variable include:
| alert=0 |
Selects error-record templates with the Alert field set to False. |
| alert=1 |
Selects error-record templates with the Alert field set to True. |
| log=0 |
Selects error-record templates with the Log field set to False. |
| log=1 |
Selects error-record templates with the Log field set to True. |
| report=0 |
Selects error-record templates with the Report field set to False. |
| report=1 |

When combined with the -t flag, entries are processed from the error template repository. (Otherwise, entries are processed from the error log repository.) |
|
-K ErrorLabel |
Excludes the error log entries specified by the ErrorLabel variable. The ErrorLabel variable values can be separated by commas or enclosed in double-quotation marks and separated by commas or blanks. When combined with the -t flag, entries are processed from the error template repository. (Otherwise, entries are processed from the error log repository). |
| -N ResourceNameList |
Generates a report of resource names specified by the
ResourceNameList variable. The ResourceNameList variable
is a list of names of resources that have detected
errors. For software errors, these are the names of resources that have
detected errors. For hardware errors, these are names of devices or system
components. It does not
indicate that the component is faulty or needs replacement.
Instead, it is used to determine the appropriate diagnostic
modules to be used to analyze the error.
The ResourceNameList variable
can be separated by , (commas), or enclosed in "" (double quotation marks)
and separated by , (commas) or space characters. |
| -R ResourceTypeList |
Generates a report of resource types specified by the ResourceTypeList variable; for hardware errors the ResourceTypeList variable is a device type; for software errors it is the LPP value. The ResourceTypeList variable can be separated by , (commas), or enclosed in "" (double quotation marks) and separated by , (commas) or space characters. |
| -S ResourceClassList |
Generates a report of resource classes specified by the ResourceClassList variable. For hardware errors, the ResourceClassList variable is a device class. The ResourceClassList variable can be separated by , (commas), or enclosed in "" (double quotation marks) and separated by , (commas) or space characters. |
| -T ErrorTypeList |
Limits the error report to error types specified by the valid ErrorTypeList variables: INFO, PEND, PERF, PERM, TEMP, and UNKN. The ErrorTypeList variable can be separated by , (commas), or enclosed in "" (double quotation marks) and separated by , (commas) or space characters. |
