Informational: Informational messages provide users with information or feedback about normal events that have occurred or are occurring, or request information from users in cases where the outcome will not be negative, regardless of the response.

Examples:

  • The status request is processing.
  • The files were successfully transferred.
  • Do you want to save your output in file a or in file b?
W
Warning: Warning messages indicate that potentially undesirable conditions have occurred or could occur, but the program can continue. Warning messages often ask users to make decisions before processing continues.

Examples:

  • The replay table could not be sent. The link to Agent_name proceeds with a reduced replay protocol.
  • A file already exists with the same name. Do you want to overwrite this file?
E
Error: Error messages indicate problems that require intervention or correction before the program can continue.
Examples:
  • The specified file could not be found.
  • You are out of space on the x drive. The file cannot be saved to this drive.
