34
MESSAGE

That ldev does not exist. Please check the ldev number, or dump the associated port instead. (TDSM 34)

CAUSE

Although you entered a number in a range that could be an ldev number, that ldev number is not configured on the system.

ACTION

Verify the ldev number by entering the SHOWJOB command. You can also dump information associated with the device by using the PORT subcommand (which uses the physical address instead of the ldev number).

35
MESSAGE

That DTC is owned by another person running TermDSM. You may override that user and continue. (WARNING : This may have unpredictable results. It's safer to find the other user and exit TermDSM. (TDSM 35) Do you want to override the other user (yes or no)?

CAUSE

More than one person is using TermDSM and directing operations to the same DTC at the same time.

ACTION

It is permissible for two or more users to run TermDSM simultaneously as long as the users do not reference the same DTC. In this case, message 35 will not appear. If one TermDSM user chooses to override another by continuing, it is likely that the overridden TermDSM will produce error messages. This facility is provided for the case where a terminal running TermDSM is hung and therefore cannot exit the program. Note that if one TermDSM user resets the port of another TermDSM user, this can cause the system to go down.

36
MESSAGE

No ldevs seem to be configured on your system. (TDSM 356)

CAUSE

Necessary configuration information does not exist on the system.

ACTION

Make sure the file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS exists. Bring the system down and back up again, making sure that the proper SYSGEN files are used. (The SYSGEN files used are determined by the boot path. The file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS is used automatically.) If the problem persists, contact your HP support representative.

37
MESSAGE

The dump process can't find out the length of the data area. (TDSM 37)

CAUSE

Internal error.

ACTION

Contact your HP support representative.

ACTION

Logon as a user with the correct capabilities for the TermDSM functions you wish to use. Refer to the reference documentation for the security levels of each command and subcommand.

43
MESSAGE

You can't do this from your own DTC. Please run TermDSM from another DTC or from the console. (TDSM 43)

CAUSE

If you were permitted to selftest, dump, or reset the DTC to which you are logged on, your session would be aborted and you would be unable to get the test results.

ACTION

Move to a terminal on another DTC or the system console to run TermDSM.

44
MESSAGE

Warning: This will reset all users on that DTC. As many as 48 terminal users could be affected. (TDSM 44)

CAUSE

ACTION

Logon as a user with the correct capabilities for the TermDSM functions you wish to use. Use the appropriate reference materials to determine the security level of each command and subcommand.

93
MESSAGE

TermDSM could not open the DTC manager, so the DTC dump could not be obtained. (TDSM 93)

CAUSE

Internal error, unless another TermDSM was being run against that same DTC and you chose not to override the other user. There is no error in this case.

ACTION

Contact your HP support representative (if it is an internal error).

110
MESSAGE

You can't test your own port. Please run TermDSM from another port. (TDSM 110)

CAUSE

Doublecheck the numbers entered. If you wish to test a port, you cannot be logged on to that port; the operation will abort your session and you will be unable to obtain the results of the test.

ACTION

If you want to test the port to which you are logged on, move to another port or the system console to run TermDSM.

113
MESSAGE

Please put a loopback hood on the port, before answering the "How may times?" question. (TDSM 113)

CAUSE

The hardware must be present before the diagnostic is run.

ACTION

Refer to the appropriate TermDSM manual for information on port loopback tests.

CAUSE

The hardware must be present before the diagnostic is run.

ACTION

Refer to the appropriate TermDSM manual for information on the port test.

121
MESSAGE

Warning: The LDM dump is suspect. Consecutive dumps did not match. (TDSM 121)

CAUSE

This message is written to dump files and never appears as an error message to a user. There was activity during the dump process, so part of the dump relating to the Logical Device Manager might be inconsistent with the rest of the dump.

ACTION

Submit the dump to your HP support representative.

122
MESSAGE

You can't reset your own SIC. Please run TermDSM from another SIC or DTC, or from the console. (TDSM 122)

CAUSE

Your own session is on this SIC (serial interface card). If you wish to reset a SIC, you cannot be logged onto that card; the operation will abort your session and you will be unable to obtain the results.

ACTION

Move to a port on a different DTC or SIC, or to the system console, to run TermDSM.

170
MESSAGE

The Distributed Terminal Subsystem software does not exist. Please verify that the NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS file is correct and validated, and the system has booted up without errors. This situation prevents TermDSM from continuing. (TDSM 170)

CAUSE

229
MESSAGE

Read timeout (no data came back). Time = xx msec. If external loopback, check loopback hood. If terminal loopback, check connections, terminal configuration, etc. (TDSM 229)

CAUSE

No or too few characters came back from the loopback.

ACTION

If this is an internal loopback, this indicates a hardware problem. Contact your HP support representative. You can obtain additional information by running the card selftest (through the SIC subcommand of the TermDSM RESET command), the DTC selftest, and the DTC offline diagnostics. If this is an external loopback, check the loopback hood to verify that it is securely connected and on the correct port. If this is a terminal loopback, verify that a supported, powered on terminal is securely connected to the proper port. Check baud rate, parity, etc. Note that the terminal configuration must match the configuration file, not the state the terminal was in when it was last used. If this does not help, run internal, then external loopback to discriminate between a DTC problem and a terminal/cabling problem.

230

243
MESSAGE

Bad parameter from TermDSM. (TDSM 243)

CAUSE

Internal error.

ACTION

Contact your HP support representative.

244
MESSAGE

Timeout waiting for the DTC to respond. The DTC may be powered off, malfunctioning, or misconfigured. (TDSM 244)

CAUSE

The TermDSM command resulted in an instruction being sent to a DTC, and the DTC did not respond.

ACTION

Note that the DTC list printed by TermDSM is only a list of the DTCs configured, not a list of installed, powered on, and working DTCs. If the DTC in question was working, and no changes were made to the configuration file, ensure that the DTC is powered on. If so, this error indicates a probable hardware error. Contact your HP support representative. If this is a new installation or DTC, which has never been run before, the above comments can still apply. However, if the configuration is incorrect, a functional DTC might still not respond. Check the configuration file, power to the DTC, connections, etc. If problems persist, contact your HP support representative. This error can also be the result of a LAN problem. If other DTC(s) are working on the same LAN, the problem is probably related to the DTC or its configuration. If there is only one DTC, or other DTCs on the same LAN are unresponsive, then the LAN hardware or software might be at fault. The LAN diagnostic LANDAD can be run to investigate LAN problems.

245
MESSAGE

258
MESSAGE

Application request timeout occurred. (TDSM 258)

CAUSE

Internal error. This means two users of TermDSM were directing TermDSM commands to the same DTC at the same time, and the other TermDSM user answered "yes" to the override question (see TermDSM message 35). Other error messages are likely to be printed also, because your operations were interrupted. These error messages should be ignored. There is nothing wrong with multiple users of TermDSM running at the same time, as long as they do not try to direct commands to the same DTC at the same time. The message and interlock system of TermDSM message 35 was designed to prevent this conflict.

ACTION

Contact your HP support representative.

259
MESSAGE

DTC not opened by this TermDSM. Possibly your TermDSM was overridden by another TermDSM. (TDSM 259)

CAUSE

Another user of TermDSM has explicitly overridden your use of TermDSM.

ACTION

Locate and coordinate users of TermDSM. This means two users of TermDSM were directing TermDSM commands to the same DTC at the same time, and the other TermDSM user answered "yes" to the override question (see TermDSM message 35). Other error messages are likely to be printed. These error messages should be ignored. There is nothing wrong with multiple users of TermDSM running at the same time, as long as they do not try to direct commands to the same DTC at the same time. The message and interlock system of message 35 was designed to prevent this conflict.

Contact your HP support representative.

264
MESSAGE

The DTC reported an unknown status as a result of the loopback. Time taken=xx. (TDSM 264)

CAUSE

An error unknown to TermDSM was reported by the Distributed Terminal Subsystem.

ACTION

Contact your HP support representative. You can obtain additional information by running the card selftest (through the SIC subcommand of the TermDSM RESET command), the DTC selftest, and the DTC offline diagnostics.

270
MESSAGE

The port is malfunctioning, or not present on that SIC. Modem SICs have ports zero to five, and all other SICs have ports zero to seven. (TDSM 270)

CAUSE

The DTC has reported that the port in question is bad or does not exist.

ACTION

Note the range of ports in the error message. If you are specified a port that does not exist, verify the information to determine the correct port. For reset and dump, you can specify an ldev number instead of the port to do the operation. If the port does exist, a hardware failure has probably occurred. Contact your HP support representative. You can obtain additional information by running the card selftest (through the SIC subcommand of the TermDSM RESET command), the DTC selftest, and the DTC offline diagnostics.

271
MESSAGE

That SIC is malfunctioning, or not installed. TermDSM can not always tell the difference between !!not installed!! and a serious malfunction. (TDSM 271)

CAUSE

Possible hardware problem or no card is installed in that slot.

ACTION

Doublecheck that the SIC number you specified is correct. If it is, it is likely that the SIC is defective. Contact you HP support representative. You can obtain additional information by running the card selftest (through the SIC subcommand of the TermDSM RESET command), the DTC selftest, and the DTC offline diagnostics.

272
MESSAGE

The operation was aborted because it was reset. (TDSM 272)

CAUSE
