message text. You must specify the status code as an integer
expression.

Specifies the system message component for which information is
to be returned. If this parameter is null or unspecified, then
all system message components are returned.
The following table describes the valid system message component
keywords:
Component
Keyword Information Returned
FACILITY Facility name
SEVERITY Severity level indicator
IDENT Abbreviation of message text
TEXT Explanation of message
Note that when the FACILITY, SEVERITY, and IDENT code keywords
are specified (individually or in combination), the resulting
message code is prefaced with the percent (%) character. The
individual parts of the message code are separated by hyphens
when multiple code keywords are specified.
When only the TEXT keyword is specified, the resulting text
is not prefaced with any character. When the TEXT keyword is
specified with the FACILITY, SEVERITY, or IDENT code keyword,
the message code is separated from the text by a combination of a
comma and a blank (, ).
