Ping/XL Error and Information Messages 

In addition to the normal reply message details and statistics, PING/XL
can display informational and/or error messages which are described
below.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MESSAGE           Receive timeout occurred. Shutting Down...

CAUSE             The PING/XL process has not received any response to its requests for
                  two minutes.  So it shuts itself down, assuming that the local or the
                  remote side is inactive.

ACTION            This could indicate that the remote node is unreachable.  Also check
                  if the local node is congested or hung causing the local ICMP Server
                  not to respond.  (The local ICMP Server interacts with PING/XL to
                  send ICMP Echo Requests to the remote, and passes incoming replies to
                  the right PING/XL process.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MESSAGE           Cannot contact local ICMP Server. Shutting down...

CAUSE             PING/XL cannot contact the above mentioned local ICMP Server.

ACTION            Check if the Transport is active.  If not, start the transport.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MESSAGE           Server not accepting requests, as it is busy. Please try later.

CAUSE             Only 15 PING/XL processes can be active at any time.  That is, only
                  15 users can run PING/XL at the same time.  Additional users trying
                  to run PING/XL will get this error message.

ACTION            Wait, and try later.  One of the other PING/XL processes might have
                  completed, allowing you to run the program.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MESSAGE           Cannot resolve path to remote. Path Error, Parm = # Parm_Value. Refer
                  PATH RESULT CODES table in NS 3000/XL Error Messages Manual.

CAUSE             A suitable path out of the local node to reach the remote node could
                  not be found.

ACTION            Look up the table mentioned in the message, under the Parm_Value
                  code, and take the action recommended therein.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MESSAGE           Arithmetic trap  Parm. Program Quitting.

CAUSE             This is an internal error.

ACTION            Submit an SR with the Parm value, a description of what you were
                  trying to do, and any other error messages printed on the terminal.
                  To submit an SR, see the NS3000/XL Operations and Maintenance Manual.

Internal Errors 

The following messages are all internal errors, and should not happen
under normal circumstances.  In each case, submit an SR (see the
NS3000/XL Operations and Maintenance Manual).

   *   Error opening $STDIN. Program quitting.

   *   Error opening $STDLIST. Program quitting.

   *   Cannot create port. Program quitting.
