Event messages
Event messages appear as items in the System administration log or the System test log of the Maintenance session. Most of these event messages can only be caused by an unusual combination of events, and should rarely occur.
Each event is assigned a severity number. An S preceding this number, S4 for example, may appear in the event message. S9 is the most severe. If the log is full, new event messages with a higher severity number replace existing event messages of a lower severity. For this reason, you should check event messages at regular intervals. You can then deal with all messages before they are replaced.
