Comments:

  P7ZIP has the following ERRORLEVEL / EXITCODES:
    0  No error
    1  Warning (Non fatal error(s)). For example, one or more files were
       locked by some other application, so they were not compressed.
    2  Fatal error

    8  Not enough memory for operation
  255  User stopped the process
