This section explains the format of messages issued by HiRDB Dataextractor. Table 8-1 lists the destinations of the HiRDB Dataextractor messages. For the destination of each message, see Table 8-1.

Table 8-1 Destinations of HiRDB Dataextractor messages

Destination	Protocol
	TCP/IP			OSI
	Extraction 1	Extraction 2	Import/File creation	Extraction 2	Import/File creation
/opt/HIRDBXT/spool/xter	Y1	Y2	Y2	N/A	N/A
/opt/HIRDBXT/spool/xtlog	N/A	N/A	N/A	Y2	Y2
Standard output	Y	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A
Message log file3	Y	Y	Y	Y	Y

Y: Output.

N/A: Not output.

Extraction 1: Data extraction facility is executed with the xtrep command in order to extract and import data between HiRDBs.

Extraction 2: Data extraction facility is executed via a linkage with VOS3 XDM/XT.

Import/File creation: Data import facility or file creation facility is executed.

¹ Specify a filename that is unique in HiRDB Dataextractor. You can output to a desired file by specifying the -e option in the xtrep command. This file is created when an error occurs during parameter analysis, in which case error messages are output to the standard output only.

² Specify a filename that is unique in HiRDB Dataextractor.

³ When the OS being used is HP-UX, the message log file does not display national character data correctly. Consequently, if national character data is included in the embedded characters (such as a table identifier or column name) of a message text that is output to the message log file, that data is not displayed correctly. In such a case, check the contents of the error log file; the same message is also output to the error log file.
