Destination:
field or press
F 2
(Choices) to select from a menu.
Valid message destinations are:
~
stderr — The standard error of the process generating the message.
Since most system processes redirect standard error to the system
console, specifying this destination may result in the message being
sent to the system console.
~
console — The system console or /dev/console.
~
alertPipe — A specially named pipe for messages that must be sent
directly to the alerter. The alerter pipe is used for some special system
processes. Specification of the alerter pipe for other system messages
has little or no effect on the system message facility or on the alerter
itself. The system is distributed with some messages specified with the
alerter pipe as a destination. This destination should not be removed
from the message.
Note:
Separating alarm destinations from event destinations ensures
that alarm messages do not overrun event messages, and vice
versa.
~
alarm — Specifies that the delivery system send all alarm level
messages, that is, minor, major, and critical (denoted by “*”, “**” and
“*C”, respectively) to the alarm log. The alarm log may be accessed via
the display messages command or the Message Log Report window.
