E_L Summaries

There are two E_L summaries that can be printed after exiting a job: CDFEL summary, and Run summary. The CDFEL summary looks similar to this:

 ============================================================================
 %CDFEL SUMMARY:
 ============================================================================
      No.            Parent  Err   
   #  Occur Routine  Routine Cod Message
 ----+----+--------+--------+---+--------------------------------------------
    1  3E4 BKWEVT   SIGTAD    w  BLOCAT ERROR                                
    2   21 UPFIT1   SVQRFT    e  Matrix inversion failed                     
    3   27 SVQRFT   QSVREC    w  UPFIT1 failed                               
    4   27 QSVREC   QSVXS     w  SVQRFT failed                               
    5    1 QSVREC   QSVXS     w  QTRKCV failed                               
 ----+----+--------+--------+---+--------------------------------------------
 ===========+========
 12-WARNING :   37429
 ===========+========
 Total      :   37429
 ===========+========
The first column numbers the different errors in order of their first appearence. The second column prints the number of times this error was logged. The next two columns are for the subroutine where the error occurred and the subroutine which called that subroutine. The next column is the error level of the logged error. Finally, the last column is the first 44 characters of the error message. The next table list the errors by descending error code.

The Run summary looks similar to this:

 ============================================================================
 %CDFEL RUN SUMMARY ( 40220):
 ============================================================================
   #  Occur   Run/Event1    Run/Event2    Run/Event3 
 ----+----+-------------+-------------+-------------+------------------------
    1  3E4  40100/   522  40100/   522  40100/   522
    2   21  40100/ 12538  40190/   522  40190/  3101
    3   27  40100/ 12538  40100/ 17525  40190/   522
    4   27  40100/ 12538  40100/ 17525  40190/   522
    5    1  40190/  7266

         Error report threshold = WARNING   
         Error  abort threshold = SEVERE

The first two columns are identical to the CDFEL summary table. The next three columns represent the run number and event number when the error was logged. So, error number 2 ("charged particle has mass....") was first seen in Run #1, Event#1, and next in Run #1, Event#2, and next in Run #1, Event #4.

Finally, the minimum report/abort thresholds (set with ERLGM2) are printed:
Error report threshold = WARNING
Error abort threshold = SEVERE

The first line means that no error with a severity less than "warning" will be printed to the screen (i.e. no "success" or "info" messages will be printed). The second line means that errors with severity of SEVERE or greater will cause an abort.
