There are four tasks that comprise the error logging system.
   
  1  ERL - Each time ERL is initialized (usually at system startup), it
     creates a file called ERR.TMP.  ERL writes system configuration
     information and information it obtains from the executive error
     message queue to ERR.TMP.
    
  2  PSE - (pre-formatter task)  PSE requests the file ERROR.TMP from
     ERL, does some formatting of the raw error data, creates a file
     ERROR.SYS and then deletes ERROR.TMP.  If one of more ERROR.SYS files
     exist, PSE appends the newly preformatted data to the highest version
     of the file.  The data in ERROR.SYS is in a format that SYE can use
     to generate its reports.  Type HELP PSE.
    
  3  SYE - Report generator.  Type HELP SYE or refer to the RSX-11M/M-PLUS
     Error Logging Manual for details.
   
  4  ERF - Task to terminate ERL for system shutdown.
  
 For a summary of running Error Logging type HELP ERRLOG SUMMARY

      RUNNING ERRLOG
   
 ERRLOG is the only task that needs to be installed permanently for
 error logging to function.
 To install ERRLOG, Type the following at a privileged terminal:
   
        >INS $ERL
   
 To activate error logging, initiate ERRLOG from a privileged terminal
 by typing:
        >RUN ERRLOG
    
      RUNNING PSE (PRE-FORMATTER)
   
 PSE must be run from a privileged terminal.  To install and run
 PSE, type:
        >INS $PSE
        >PSE  outdev:[ufd]file.typ=indev:
   
   The defaults for omitted fields are:
                                       SY0:[1,6]ERROR.SYS=SY0:
  
 When PSE prompts again, type CTRL/Z to return to MCR.
   
 For information on how to run SYE (the report generator) type:
     MCR>HELP SYE
    
      RUNNING ERF (THE SHUTDOWN TASK)
   
 To terminate error logging, run the task ERF by typing the following pair
 of commands from a privileged terminal:
   
        >INS $ERF
        >ERF
    
   
    For further information, refer to the RSX-11M/M-PLUS Error
