NS3000/iX Error Messages Reference Manual
Chapter 4 NFT/3000 Error Messages
NFT/3000 messages may be distinguished from other NFT messages in the
following way: bit 2 of the DSCOPY result parameter or of the NFTERR JCW
indicates the appropriate error set (on=NFT/3000, off=NFT). The DSCOPYMSG
intrinsic is able to determine the correct error set.
0 MESSAGE NO ERRORS WERE DETECTED.
CAUSE No errors occurred during the file transfer.
ACTION None. This is an informative message.
1 MESSAGE UNABLE TO OPEN NFT MESSAGE CATALOG.
CAUSE If NFT is unable to open its message catalog it
will print an error message to the system
console, log the error to the NM logging
facility and terminate. This error code will
not actually be returned to the user.
ACTION Make sure that NFTCAT2.NET.SYS is present and
not being accessed exclusively by some other
user. If so, then try running MAKECAT to ensure
that the file is in message catalog format. If
the console message says that the version number
in the message catalog is not current then
obtain the proper version. Examine the NM log
file to see which file system error occurred
when the FOPEN was attempted.
2 MESSAGE ATTEMPTED READ FROM INPUT FILE FAILED.
CAUSE Read from the command input file (formal
designator DSCOPYI) failed.
ACTION Look for a file equation for DSCOPYI. Make sure
it is what was intended.
3 MESSAGE UNABLE TO OPEN SECONDARY OUTPUT FILE.
CAUSE FOPEN of the secondary output file (formal
designator DSCOPYL) failed.
ACTION Look for a file equation for DSCOPYL. Make sure
it is correct. If primary output is not
enabled, check the NM log file for the file
system error which occurred.
4 MESSAGE UNABLE TO OPEN INPUT FILE.
CAUSE FOPEN of the command input file (formal
designator DSCOPYI) failed.
ACTION Look for a file equation for DSCOPYI. Ensure
that it refers to a valid file (or $STDIN).
5 MESSAGE COMMAND LINE IS TOO LONG.
CAUSE Input command length exceeded the allowed
maximum (200 bytes).
ACTION Ensure that the command input file is correct.
If the command is truly too long, global
specifications may be used to shorten it.
6 MESSAGE CALL TO GENMESSAGE FAILED.
CAUSE DSCOPYMSG intrinsic could not retrieve the
specified error string from the NFT message
catalog.
ACTION Make sure that NFTCAT2.NET.SYS is present and
not being accessed exclusively by some other
user. If so, then try running MAKECAT to ensure
that the file is in message catalog format. If
the console message says that the version number
in the message catalog is not current then
obtain the proper version. Examine the NM log
file to see which file system error occurred
when the FOPEN was attempted.
8 MESSAGE KEYWORD DICTIONARY IS TOO LONG.
CAUSE Probable internal error.
ACTION See "Submitting an SR" in appendix A of this
manual.
9 MESSAGE COMMAND LINE CONTAINS TOO MANY PARAMETERS.

using global specifications to reduce the number
of parameters.

CAUSE Usually a typographical error.
ACTION Retype and reissue the command.
11 MESSAGE NO CLOSING QUOTE WAS SPECIFIED.
CAUSE A matching apostrophe (') or set of quotation
marks ("), was not found.

of the same type. They must both be either (")
or (').
12 MESSAGE ! IS AN INVALID DELIMITER BETWEEN SOURCE AND
TARGET.
CAUSE Usually a typographical error.
ACTION Retype and reissue the command.
13 MESSAGE ! IS INVALID DELIMITER BETWEEN TARGET AND
KEYWORDS.
CAUSE Usually a typographical error.
ACTION Retype and reissue the command.
14 MESSAGE UNKNOWN KEYWORD: !
CAUSE Usually a typographical error.
ACTION Retype and reissue the command.
15 MESSAGE REMOTE ENVIRONMENT SPECIFIED BY USER DOES NOT
EXIST.
CAUSE The session associated with the specified node
or environment cannot be found. Either the
session was aborted externally or an internal
error occurred.
ACTION Ask your system manager if your session was
aborted. If not, check the NM log file for
additional error information.
16 MESSAGE RESTART ID FILE NAME IS TOO LONG.
CAUSE Restart ID file name exceeds the length of a
legal MPE file name.
ACTION Correct the file name and re-enter the command.
19 MESSAGE INVALID FILE SIZE.
CAUSE FSIZE specified contains non-numeric characters
or is too large.
ACTION Retype and reissue the command with the correct
FSIZE.

CAUSE Reminds user of the consequences of issuing REP
option.

CAUSE APP(end) was specified after REP(replace) or
OVER (overwrite), therefore it takes effect
during the transfer.
ACTION None.
31 MESSAGE OVER(WRITE) OVERRIDES APP(END) AND REP(LACE).
CAUSE Reminds user of OVER option's consequences.
