Troubleshooting data communications problems can be a very
involved process since there are many hardware and software components
to investigate. You will be able to quickly identify and resolve
some problems, however. These include invalid software installation,
version incompatibilities, insufficient MPE/iX resources, corrupt
configuration files, programming or command errors, and file system
errors.
Other problems will require more investigation. Once you identify
the problem, it is likely that you will be able to resolve the problem
using the suggestions in this chapter or the detailed instructions
provided in the NS 3000/iX Error Messages Reference Manual.
This chapter includes information on the following topics:
How to identify problems.
Identifying possible causes of problems.
Once you have identified the problem and the possible cause,
use the strategies described in Chapter 5 “Common Network Problems ” to further isolate and correct the problem.
