Warning Messages

A warning message alerts you of a possible problem and prompts you to

respond before the system continues a task. For example, before you format

a diskette, a message will warn you that you may lose all data on the diskette.

Warning messages usually interrupt the task and require you to respond by

typing y (yes) or n (no).

NOTE:

Warning messages are generated by either the application or the

operating system. For more information, see the documentation that accompanied

the operating system or application.

Diagnostics Messages

The system diagnostic utilities may issue messages if you run diagnostic tests

on your system. See "Running the System Diagnostics" on page 147 for more

information about system diagnostics.

Alert Messages

Systems management software generates alert messages for your system.

Alert messages include information, status, warning, and failure messages

for drive, temperature, fan, and power conditions. For more information,

see the systems management software documentation.
