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 operating system or application.
Diagnostic messages

status, warning, and failure messages for drive, temperature, fan, and power conditions. For more information, see
