The batch file that calls the automated backup utility for the DeltaV
Continuous Historian returns an error code numbered 0 through 7. If the
automated backup utility is run from the command line, the error codes may not
be especially useful: the onscreen message indicating success or failure is
self-explanatory. However, if the backup is run using a batch file, you might
want to revise the batch file based on the error code returned.
The error codes, as indicated in the following table, increase
numerically with the severity of the error.
