F Fatal. The attempted action did not work.

In the previous example, the first message has an "F" severity level and the second one has an "S" severity level.

9.1.3 Message Rout ing

Since your fax documents are queued and not always sent right away, the majority of CompuFax messages are not sent back to your terminal, because you may not be logged in to the system at the time the error occurs. The only time a message is sent back directly to the user's screen is when a document cannot be placed into the queue at all, such as shown here:

$ FAX SEN D X.YZ

%FAX-F-FILEACCFAIL, File access failure for ALPHA$DKA300:[FAX]X.YZ; -RMS-E-FN F, file not found

(In the above example, also note the second message, which indicates that an error was also detected in DEC's Record Management System (RMS). Messages are sent back to the user via VMS MAIL or, optionally, to the Operator's Console. They may also be sent to a log file.

If you want to make sure you are notified of a fax document's completion status, you can do so by using the

/NOTIFY qualifier with the SEND command. This will inform you by VMS Mail message whether your fax was sent successfully or, if it failed, it will notify you after the last attempt.

The minimum severity level of messages sent to the various locations is determined by the System Manager during the CompuFax setup procedures. For more information, see Chapter 7, SEND / NOTIFY, SEND / [NO]MAIL.
