Warning Messages

A warning message alerts you to a possible problem and prompts you to
respond before the system continues a task. For example, before you format
a hard drive, a message warns you that you may lose all data on the hard drive.
Warning messages usually interrupt the task and require you to respond
by typing y (yes) or n (no).
NOTE:
Warning messages are generated by either the application or the
operating system. For more information, see the documentation that
accompanied the application or operating system.

Diagnostics Messages

The system diagnostic utilities may issue messages if you run diagnostic tests
on your system. See "Running the Embedded System Diagnostics" on
page 140 for more information about system diagnostics.

Alert Messages

Systems management software generates alert messages for your system.
Alert messages include information, status, warning, and failure messages
for drive, temperature, fan, and power conditions. For more information,
see the systems management software documentation.
