# afszcm.cat(5)

Error message catalog for debugging the Cache Manager

## NAME

afszcm.cat - Error message catalog for debugging the Cache Manager

## DESCRIPTION

The *afszcm.cat* file is a message catalog for the Cache Manager. The **fstrace dump** command interpreter uses it in conjunction with the standard UNIX catalog utilities to translate Cache Manager operation codes into character strings as it writes traces in the **fstrace** trace log, which makes the log more readable.

The conventional location for the file is the */etc/openafs/C/* directory. It can be placed in another directory if the NLSPATH and LANG environment variables are set appropriately.
