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 event log. If an error

occurs in an HDLM program, a message other than KAPL08xxx is output to

the event log. 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 for collecting HDLM error information. For details on

the DLMgetras 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.

When an error occurs in the HDLM GUI, take a screenshot at the time the

error occurred.

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
