The possible severity levels for diagnostic messages are as
follows:
S (success)
I (informational)
W (warning)
E (error)
F (fatal, or severe error)
Success and informational messages inform you that the debugger
has performed your request.
Warning messages indicate that the debugger might have performed
some, but not all, of your request and that you should verify the
result.
Error messages indicate that the debugger could not perform your
request, but that the state of the debugging session was not
changed. The only exceptions are if the message identifier was
DBGERR or INTERR. These identifiers signify an internal debugger
error, and you should submit a Software Performance Report (SPR)
in such cases.
Fatal messages indicate that the debugger could not perform your
request and that the debugging session is in an indeterminate
state from which you cannot recover reliably. Typically, the
error ends the debugging session.
