User Interface Messages

All NerveCenter error messages are written to the Event Log. To view messages in the Event Log:

In Windows: Run the Event Viewer and display the Application log. Each error message is listed as a line in the log.
In UNIX: Read the ASCII file /var/adm/messages with a text editor or a command such as "more."

Each error description is formatted in the following way:

Category error_message_number: message: [code_number]

Each message is assigned a category, which has a corresponding number. The line listed in the log uses a number to indicate a category, as follows:
