After the weekend I get a message that server experienced serious error and I have a number <1> after the console promt.]


everything seems to be running OK and I don't see the abend.log file in the sys folder?

should I restart the server?
thank you for help
 
the <1> indicates there has been one (1) abend on some process, but the fact that the server is still functional means that the problem wasn't bad enough to take the whole server down.

Abend.log is in SYS:SYSTEM. You will need to restart the server to clear the abend, but take a look at ABEND.LOG (And SYS:SYSTEM\SYS$LOG.ERR) to try to determine the problem so you can troubleshoot.

I've seen customer servers that are on abend <27> and they didn't even know there was a problem.
