This chapter describes the types of errors you can encounter, return codes, and storage dumps. The action you take depends on the message that you receive. The Database Services Utility generates its own messages as well as displaying DB2 Server for VSE & VM messages. All messages are explained in the DB2 Server for VSE Messages and Codes and DB2 Server for VM Messages and Codes manuals.
Except for a report or message file processing error, all Database Services Utility messages are written to the report or message file. If a report or message file error occurs, a Database Services Utility message is generated on the operator console describing the condition. In the report or message file, messages follow the commands that caused them to be generated.
