Description: The number of recognized code-violation errors. A trap is issued when this number exceeds the bit error rate threshold for ESCON. The bit error rate threshold is set at 15 error burst within a 5 minute period. An error burst is the time period of 1.5 seconds plus or minus 0.05 seconds during which one or more code violations errors occur.

What is codeViolationErrors?

This counter tracks the number of code-violation errors detected on a ESCON (Enterprise Systems Connection) channel interface, which are encoding violations that indicate bit transmission errors. When code violations exceed a threshold of 15 occurrences within a 5-minute window, a trap is generated to alert operators of link degradation. Operators use this metric to assess link quality and diagnose physical layer problems on mainframe connections.
