MS-DOS® Error Codes

The CPQLODOS utility sends the MS-DOS® shell a 0 (zero) when no error occurred or a 1 (one) when an error is detected. This can be misleading in that an error might have occurred even if a 0 is returned to the shell. The following can cause a 1 to be returned:

•Version incompatibility

•Wrong operating system (MS-DOS® is required)

•No Lights-Out processor found

•Flash in progress

•Virtual floppy inhibited

•Communication error

•XML error

An XML error implies that there was a problem during the XML transport but not that there was a problem with the XML content. XML content errors can go undetected and result in a zero error return.

To work around this issue, use the log feature to capture the output. The captured output will have more details about XML content errors.
