HP 3000 MPE/iX Release 6.0 System Software Maintenance Manual (Release C.60.00): HP 3000 MPE/iX Computer Systems > Appendix H Error Messages and WarningsCommon Modification Process Errors |
|
Throughout the activities described in Chapter 5 “Modifying Your System” several types of messages may display. Below is a description of some of the more common error and warning messages and a general description of the appropriate response to those messages. At different stages, AUTOINST searches for required amounts of non-contiguous and contiguous disk space. In the section "3.6 Estimating Disk Space" in Chapter 3 “Planning for Your Task” you verified if you had sufficient disk space.
The following messages are generated by AUTOINST. While the operating system is running, AUTOINST attempted to put files into a holding area in the install group prior to calling SYSGEN to create a SLT.
To recover from the above two messages, ensure that you have sufficient disk space before proceeding with your modification task. The following message is generated by the UPDATE utility. UPDATE was not able to put all the files on disk. UPDATE skips non-critical files and exists.
At the end of UPDATE, where the system normally boots, the system will stop. The operator must boot the machine manually. Messages will stay on the console. The console will have the following message on it.
The INSTALL group is created with certain capabilities which AUTOINST needs to run. If these capabilities are not present, the following message is displayed:
If this message appears on the console where AUTOINST is invoked, use CHGROUP to change to the PUB.SYS group, use ALTGROUP to add the BA, IA, PM, MR, DS, and PH capabilities to the INSTALL group. Use CHGGROUP to return to your original group. When installation files are streamed, progress messages display. The message may indicate zero installation files. This only means that the products you are installing do not require an installation file. AUTOINST continues with the product installation. When the patch evaluation is complete, each patch is listed with the result of its qualification process. Some patches are followed by one or more additional patches listed as dependencies. For a patch to qualify, all of its patch dependencies must also qualify. The absence of a product, or the presence of a product that has been patched with a site-specific patch can cause a patch to not qualify. Decide whether you want to install the patches that qualified for your system. For additional information on available patches, refer to READ BEFORE INSTALLING for PowerPatch Releases or Communicator 3000 for Express Releases. Manually installed products, have installation files that cannot be streamed automatically and require special attention. If there are products like this on your SUBSYS tape, a warning message is displayed with the product name(s). These products must be installed after updating with the CSLT. Refer to Appendix A “Manually Installed Products” for installation instructions. |
