Every error that the Control‑M/EM API displays has a severity level. This level indicates the priority of the error and indicates how much information is written to the log file.
When using the Control‑M/EM API, the most common severity level is ERROR. Using the default logging configuration, the DEBUG error is never used. For information on how to modify the logging configuration, see Control-M/EM API logging.
The severity levels that are supported by the Control‑M/EM API are listed in the following table:
Level |
Description |
|---|---|
FATAL |
Displays fatal error messages. NOTE: When a FATAL error is generated, it is recommended that you stop using the Control‑M/EM API immediately, and that you investigate the cause of the error. If you continue to use Control‑M/EM API despite receiving a FATAL error, stop and restart Control‑M/EM GUI Server and Global Alerts Server before performing any more API actions. |
