Chapter 16  FDDI Error Messages 

The following error messages may appear when using or installing FDDI on
your system.  The following list consists of error messages that you may
be able to resolve yourself.  Other error messages may appear, but
require the help of your HP representative.  If the message number does
not appear in this list, either write down the error if it is displayed
on your console, take a system dump, or run the diagnostics before
calling your HP representative for help.

1      MESSAGE      FDDI link !  aborted user's request.

       CAUSE        Your request has been aborted due to power fail
                    recovery or the driver was shutting down.

       ACTION       This is a warning.

19     MESSAGE      FDDI link !  received frame with unknown 802.2 ctrl
                    option.

       CAUSE        Unknown.

       ACTION       This is only a warning.

20     MESSAGE      FDDI link !  received frame with unknown 802.2 ctrl
                    option.

       CAUSE        Unknown.

       ACTION       This is only a warning.

21     MESSAGE      FDDI link !  trace manager overrun.

       CAUSE        The driver is generating trace entries faster than the
                    trace manager can process them.  This causes some
                    trace entries to be lost.

       ACTION       This is only a warning and is indicative of a very
                    busy system.  If debugging is a problem use partial
                    tracing if possible (when full data frames are not
                    needed) to ensure trace data is not lost.

31     MESSAGE      FDDI link !  aborted user's request.

       CAUSE        Your request has been aborted due to the power fail
                    recovery or the driver was shutting down.

       ACTION       This is a warning.

60     MESSAGE      FDDI link !  hardware reported that the ring went
                    down.

       CAUSE        Unknown.

       ACTION       This is a warning.  If the ring does not come up
                    shortly, then check network components (adapters,
                    cables, etc.).  Have your network provider examine the
                    network.

73     MESSAGE      FDDI link !  found incorrect HW or SW ID.

       CAUSE        The FDDI driver found an old or incorrect version of
                    the firmware or hardware on the FDDI interface card.

       ACTION       Update the card to the correct version.

74     MESSAGE      FDDI link !  could not read hardware ID

       CAUSE        The FDDI driver could not read the FDDI hardware
                    identification codes.

       ACTION       Run the diagnostic program to see if the hardware has
                    failed.  If so, replace the card.

84     MESSAGE      Could not open NMCONFIG file for link !

       CAUSE        The file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS does not exist or is not
                    readable.

       ACTION       Create NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS with NMMGR.

85     MESSAGE      Could not read NMCONFIG file for link !

       CAUSE        The file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS either did not exist or was
                    not readable.

       ACTION       Use NMMGR to create a NMCONFIG file.  Check that its
                    file protections are correct.

86     MESSAGE      NMCONFIG file link !  not validated

       CAUSE        NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS was not validated after being
                    updated.

       ACTION       Use NMMGR to validate NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS.

87     MESSAGE      Invalid card at path specified for link !

       CAUSE        The card, as the configured path, is not an FDDI card.

       ACTION       Change your configuration in NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS to the
                    correct path.

88     MESSAGE      No card at path specified for link !

       CAUSE        The FDDI subsystem could not find a card at the
                    configured path.

       ACTION       Change your configuration in NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS to the
                    correct path.

92     MESSAGE      FDDI driver already created.

       CAUSE        The driver was already created under a different
                    linkname, or by the diagnostic.

       ACTION       Check your NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS file and correct it if
                    needed, or check to see if the diagnostic is running.
