Windows for Viewing Messages

CA Automation Point provides the following windows for viewing messages:

• The Action Message Recall window

  This window displays the last 500 lines of highlighted (action) message text. These messages, highlighted by a CA Automation Point rule, by MCS, or by VSE, are the same messages that appear in the action messages area of the Merged Msg window. Even if a message has scrolled off the Merged Msg window, you can view it in the Action Msg Recall window.

  Highlighted messages usually report system errors and other conditions requiring a response from either CA Automation Point or an operator. The Action Msg Recall window displays these messages in the order in which CA Automation Point processed them.

• The Normal Msg Recall window

  This window displays the last 500 lines of non-highlighted (normal) message text. Normal messages also appear in the main message area of the Merged Msg window. Even if a message has scrolled off the Merged Msg window, you can view it in the Normal Msg Recall window.

• The AP Msg Recall window

  This window displays, in chronological order, the last 500 lines of message text generated by the currently active CA Automation Point.

CA Automation Point periodically updates the text displayed in its message recall windows; these windows have the following characteristics:

• You can scroll the displayed message list forward, backward, left, or right as you view it.
• You can use a highlighted bar to indicate a specific line in the message list.
• You can delete the message text in the highlighted bar.
