^^SYSERR V3B\\ CONTAINS SEVERAL EXTERNAL CHANGES
WHICH ARE FULLY DOCUMENTED IN THE ^SOFTWARE ^NOTEBOOKS AS REFERENCED
IN SECTION 1.3 OF THIS DOCUMENT.  ^INCLUDED HERE ARE BRIEF
SUMMARIES OF THESE CHANGES.
.B2
2.1.1##
.B1
^MASSBUS ^DEVICE ^ERROR ^REPORTING IS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT 
EXTERNAL CHANGE IN THIS RELEASE.  ^THE REPORT GENERATED IN THE
LISTING FILE CONTAINS THE DEVICE NAME, MEDIA ^I^D INCLUDING
THE STRUCTURE NAME, ^USER'S ^I^D PROGRAM NAME AND FILENAME,
ALL OF THE CONTROLLER (^R^H10) STATUS AND ALL OF THE DEVICE
(^R^S04 OR ^R^P04) STATUS INCLUDING ALL OF THE REGISTERS
IN THE DEVICE.  ^SAMPLE LISTINGS AND DESCRIPTIONS ARE
FOUND IN ^^SYSERR.RNO\\.
.PG
2.1.2##
.B1
^^SYSERR V3B\\ AUTOMATICALLY LOOKS FOR AND PROCESSES THE
EXTENDED ERROR FILES ^^ERROR.X01\\ THRU ^^ERROR.X77\\ CREATED
BY ^^DAEMON V10\\ AND LATER.  ^UPON DETECTING AN ERROR USING
^^ERROR.SYS\\, ^^DAEMON\\ BEGINS SAVING THE ERROR
INFORMATION IN ^^ERROR.X01.\\  ^^SYSERR\\ WILL LOOK FOR THESE
FILES AFTER ENCOUNTERING ^E^O^F ON ^^ERROR.SYS\\ AND START PROCESSING
EXTENDED ERROR FILES ACCORDING TO THE SAME COMMANDS AFTER
INFORMING THE USER ON HIS (HER) TERMINAL AND MAKING A NOTATION
IN THE OUTPUT FILE.
.B2
2.1.3##
.B1
^THE SUMMARY LISTINGS INCLUDED AT THE END OF ALL OUTPUT FILES
NOW INCLUDE THE NAME AND CREATION DATE OF ALL EXTENDED ERROR
FILES PROCESSED AND A BREAKDOWN OF SYSTEM RELOADS BY TYPE
INDICATING THE NUMBER OF EACH TYPE WHICH HAVE OCCURED.  ^ALSO
THE LISTINGS FOR ERROR COUNTS BY DEVICE ONLY
INCLUDE THOSE DEVICES WHICH HAD ERRORS AND NOT ALL DEVICES ON
THE SYSTEM.
.B2
2.1.4##
.B1
^THE DEFAULT OUTPUT FILE NAME HAS BEEN CHANGED FROM ^^ERROR.LST\\
TO ^^XXXXXX.LST\\ WHERE ^^XXXXXX\\ IS THE MAIN SWITCH SPECIFIED
IN THE COMMAND SUCH AS ^^/DSKALL\\ OR ^^/CPUPER\\ ETC.  ^THIS
ALLOWS MULTIPLE PASSES OF ^^SYSERR\\ TO NOT OVERWRITE THE
DEFAULTED OUTPUT FILE.
.B2
2.1.5##
.B1
^A NEW ^^/STR:NAME\\ ^SWITCH HAS BEEN ADDED TO ALLOW ONLY THOSE
ERRORS CONCERNING A SPECIFIC STRUCTURE REGARDLESS OF THE
DEVICE IT WAS MOUNTED ON. ^THIS SWITCH IS ONLY APPLICABLE TO DISK
OR MASSBUS UNITS.
.B2
2.1.6##
.B1
^^SYSERR\\ NO LONGER NEEDS TO BE ASSEMBLED TO BUILD A SITE-DEPENDENT
CONFIGURATION.
.B2
2.1.7##
.B1
^^SYSERR V3B\\ NOW CLOSES THE INPUT AND OUTPUT FILES WHEN
DETECTING A FATAL ERROR AND PRESERVES THE REPORTS GENERATED BEFORE
THE ERROR.

THE EXTERNAL CHANGES AND DEFINITION OF THE FULL RANGE OF ERROR
CODES. ^THIS DEFINITION WAS IN ORDER TO PREVENT BOTH

^THE DEFINITION IS DOCUMENTED IN ^^ERROR.RNO\\.

^THIS RELEASE PROVIDES FOR ^MAGTAPE ^ERROR ^REPORTING AND HANDLES MULTI-CONTROLLER (^^DPX,FHX,MTX\\) TABLES TO BE GENERATED
ON THE BASIS OF SYSTEM CONFIGURATION.
.B1
^^SYSERR\\ VERSION 3 WILL RUN ON ALL 5.06 AND LATER MONITORS.  ^IT	 HAS BEEN TESTED ON 5.06 AND LATER MONITORS, AND FULLY SUPERSEDES ALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS.  ^^SYSERR\\ VERSION 3 WORKS WITH ^^DAEMON\\ VERSION 7 UNDER 5.06
MONITORS, BUT MAGTAPE ERRORS ARE NOT REPORTED.  ^TO OBTAIN REPORTS
ON MAGTAPE ERRORS, ^^SYSERR\\ MUST BE USED WITH ^^DAEMON\\ VERSION 10
OR LATER AND 5.07 OR LATER MONITORS.

/^^MAGALL\\	-	LIST ALL MAGTAPE ENTRIES
.BR
/^^MAGPAR\\	-	LIST MAGTAPE PARITY ERROR ENTRIES

2.2	^NEW ^PERFORMANCE ^SWITCHES
.B1
^IN ADDITION TWO SWITCHES HAVE BEEN ADDED TO ALLOW ERROR CRITERIA SPECIFICATION FOR PERFORMANCE ENTRIES.  ^THESE SWITCHES ARE:
.B1
/^^SRE:_#	-	SOFT\\ READ ERROR THRESHOLD (DEFAULT 4)
.BR
/^^SWE:_#	-	SOFT\\ WRITE ERROR THRESHOLD (DEFAULT 7)
.B1
^WHEN THE USER SPECIFIES /^^MAGPER\\ HE WILL RECEIVE MAGTAPE PERFORMANCE
ENTRIES WHICH HAVE 4 READ ERRORS OR MORE AND 7 WRITE ERRORS OR MORE.
^THESE DEFAULT VALUES ARE ASSEMBLY PARAMETERS CALLED ^^SREDEF\\ AND
^^SWEDEF\\ RESPECTIVELY.  ^THE USE OF THE /^^SRE:_#\\ AND /^^SWE:_#\\
SWITCHES OVERRIDE THE DEFAULT VALUE FOR THAT RUN.  ^THIS ALLOWS DYNAMIC
CONTROL OF ERROR THRESHOLDS BY THE USER.
.PG.I-8
2.3	^EXPANDED /^^DEV\\ ^SWITCH
.B1
^GENERIC DEVICES MAY BE SPECIFIED WHEN USING THE /^^DEV:NAME\\ SWITCH.
^THUS /^^DEV:DPA\\ WILL LIST ALL ^^DPA\\ CONTROLLER ENTRIES, WHILE

2.4	^NEW ^^/ID:NAME\\ SWITCH
.SKIP 1
^A NEW ^^/ID:NAME\\ SWITCH HAS BEEN ADDED TO ALLOW SELECTION OF ENTRIES ON THE BASIS OF THE PACK OR REEL IDENTIFICATION.  ^THE USER CAN SPECIFY A SINGLE PACK OR REEL NAME AND ONLY THOSE ENTRIES CORRESPONDING TO THAT PARTICULAR ID WILL BE LISTED.
