8-1-5
NON-RECOVERABLE ERRORS= 0
The number of Disk errors the System couldn’t recover from. A non-zero number means the system
probably had a system panic.
Note: The system may have non-recoverable errors but have 0 ECC or Uncorrected errors. This means
that the system detected a non-recoverable error and retried; on one or more retries, the
unrecoverable error went away and good sector information was read.
’DIA’ LAST ERROR=160001K
The last DIA Status error. See Table 8-1 for decoding.
ERROR COUNT= 0,
The total numbers of Disk ECC and Status errors.
’ECC’ CORRECTED= 0,
A non-zero number here means there is at least 1 soft spot on the disk pack (1 bad bit that the software
was able to correct).
UNCORRECTED= 0
A non-zero number here means there is a new bad block onthe disk pack (more than 1 bad bit that the
software was unable to correct).
’UNIT STATUS’=010011
DIB Satus word. See Table 8-2 for decoding technique.
BAD BLOCK CONTENT . . . POOL=01325530K, POOL SIZE= 96, BAD BLOCKS
00006124K 00007744K 00011563K 00050605K
The second line (if present ) is a list of the current bad block adresses on the disk pack. If no bad blocks
exist on the drive, a meesage indicating no bad blocks on disk will appear here.
DISK DRIVE STATUS ERRORS
DIA STATUS and DIB STATUS are reported in octal and should be broken down to binary as follows:
Example: DIA STATUS = 16001K
1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
Bit 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
Thus bits 0,1,2 and 15 are set to 1 and all other bits are 0.
