Hi folks,

Shed any light in this error message? How do you interpret the timestamp, any idea when it happened?

Is it something I should be concerned about?

$ errpt
IDENTIFIER TIMESTAMP T C RESOURCE_NAME DESCRIPTION
C60BB505 0509141902 P S SYSPROC SOFTWARE PROGRAM ABNORMALLY TERMINATED
$ oslevel
4.3.0.0

Regards

The format is mmddhhmmyy, but it will be human-readable if you do `errpt -a` instead. You'll probably want to pipe that to pg: `errpt -a|pg`
 
The time stamp is read Month/Day/Hour/Minute/Year and the description is the software abnormally terminated (core dump).

You can find the core file which was created then run:

lquerypv -h /path_to_core_file 6b0 64 (this will give you the application or program that caused the core file)

then run:

strings /path_to_core_file | grep “_=” (this will give you the actual binary or executable that caused the core file)

Applications will core for any number of reasons. The vendor for the application can help you identify why the core occurred since they have access to source code and can run dbx against the core file if you send it to them.
 
Found the cause, many thanks for your quick response, much appreciated.

Cheers

Hi,

Found a better way to display all Application core with their dates and reasons.
Cut&paste into any shell window:
=================================================
ksh
DATE1=`errpt -a -j C60BB505 | grep Date | awk '{ print $5 }' | cut -d: -f 1,2 |head -1`
for SEQUENCE in `errpt -a -j C60BB505|grep Sequence|cut -d: -f2`
do
DATE2=`errpt -a -j C60BB505 -l $SEQUENCE | grep Date | awk '{ print $5 }' | cut -d: -f 1,2`
if [[ $DATE1 != $DATE2 ]] ;then
echo “`errpt -l $SEQUENCE -a | grep Date | awk '{ print $3,$4,$5 }'` \c\t”
errpt -a -j C60BB505 -l $SEQUENCE | awk '/PROGRAM NAME/,/ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/' | grep -vE "PROG|ADD"
DATE1=$DATE2
fi
done
exit
