### Message Action Attributes

Routing and severity attributes affect what happens to the messages they are applied to, and nothing else. However, there is an additional set of attributes that, when applied to a message, mainly affect what happens to the program after the message is sent:

svc_c_action_abort
Causes the program to abort (with core dump) as soon as the message is output.

svc_c_action_exit_bad
Causes the program to exit (with failure status) as soon as the message is output.

svc_c_action_exit_ok
Causes the program to exit (with successful status) as soon as the message is output.

svc_c_action_brief
Suppresses the standard prolog of the message. The prolog of a serviceability includes all the nonmessage information that is output before the message text itself. The prologs of all messages can be suppressed by setting the SVC_BRIEF environment variable; see Suppressing the Serviceability Message Prolog .
