MESSAGE: Unable to find NM Log Monitor. (NMERR 60)

Level: NMERR 60

CAUSE: An NM Trace or Logging procedure is unable to locate the server trace or log process (NMLogMon). Returned by NMOPENTRACE, NMGETTRACEID, NMCLOSETRACE, NMOPENLOG, NMCLOSELOG, and by the SHOWNMLOG CI command. The trace or log server process creation failed at system startup due to a bad software installation, a loader error, or an internal error.

ACTION: See "Invalid Software Installation" and "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.

CAUSE: An =SHUTDOWN or NMMAINT,SHUTDOWN has been executed prior to the Trace or Logging procedure call. The server process has already shut down. This is not an error condition.

ACTION: None.



MESSAGE: DB register at absolute. (NMERR 61)

Level: NMERR 61

CAUSE: Caller's DB register is at an absolute DB location (WHERES'DB returned a < condition code). This is not allowed in the called procedure. Returned by those trace and log procedures that can otherwise be called in split stack mode. This is probably an internal error by the calling subsystem.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: NM trace dictionary table is full. (NMERR 62)

Level: NMERR 62

CAUSE: An unexpectedly large number of NMOPENTRACE calls have been made, each specifying a different combination of SubSystemID, TraceType, and TraceElement. If this is being done by user request, turn off some of the traces, then retry. If this is not being done by user request, then this is an internal error.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: NM log table is full. (NMERR 63)

Level: NMERR 63

CAUSE: An unexpectedly large number of NMOPENTRACE calls have been made, each specifying internal memory tracing or a different destination filename. If this is being done by user request, turn off some of the traces, then retry. If this is not being done by user request, then this is an internal error.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Specified file is a system file. (NMERR 64)

Level: NMERR 64

CAUSE: The file name (FileName) parameter of the NMOPENTRACE procedure contains a system file name (the first ASCII character is "$"). User specified an incorrect filename either in the command that starts tracing, or in the configuration file.

ACTION: Specify a valid file name and retry.



MESSAGE: Specified file is a back reference file. (NMERR 65)

Level: NMERR 65

CAUSE: The file name (FileName) parameter of the NMOPENTRACE procedure contains a back referenced file name (the first ASCII character is "*"). User specified an incorrect filename either in the command that starts trace for that subsystem, or in the configuration file for that subsystem.

ACTION: Specify a valid file name and retry.



MESSAGE: User logging entries are not available. (NMERR 67)

Level: NMERR 67

CAUSE: The LogBuf XDS used for a particular NMS trace file or for NMS logging has no more available entries to add one more user. An additional entry is used for tracing whenever additional traces are requested to go to an existing open trace file. An additional entry is used for logging whenever a subsystem opens a log file. The user has requested an unexpectedly large number of concurrent traces to go to the same trace file.

ACTION: Turn off some of the traces and retry.

CAUSE: An internal error has occurred.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Unable to create the trace process. (NMERR 69)

Level: NMERR 69

CAUSE: The tracing subsystem is unable to create a trace server process for the NMOPENTRACE request (NMMONSTARTREQ failed).

ACTION: See "Invalid Software Installation," "Insufficient MPE Resources," and "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Unable to initialize the trace process. (NMERR 70)

Level: NMERR 70

CAUSE: The tracing subsystem is unable to initialize the trace server process for the NMOPENTRACE request (unable to create a port or acquire a data segment).

ACTION: See "Invalid Software Installation," "Insufficient MPE Resources," and "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Logging has stopped. (NMERR 71)

Level: NMERR 71

CAUSE: An I/O error or File System error occurred earlier and logging is not currently taking place. Returned by NMOPENLOG.

ACTION: Enter the SHOWLOG command to find out the status of the log file and the type of error. Correct the error, and restart logging with a RESUMENMLOG or a SWITCHNMLOG command. Then retry the action that led to this error.



MESSAGE: This command has no parameter. (NMERR 72)

Level: NMERR 72

CAUSE: Parameters were specified for an NMS command that does not require any parameters. Returned by SHOWNMLOG, RESUMENMLOG, and SWITCHNMLOG. User entered parameters for an NMS CI command SHOWNMLOG, SWITCHNMLOG, or RESUMENMLOG.

ACTION: Enter the command name alone without any other text on the $STDIN or $STDINX record.



MESSAGE: Invalid logging configuration file. (NMERR 73)

Level: NMERR 73

CAUSE: NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS contains invalid logging configuration data. Returned by NMOPENLOG, NMWRITELOG.

ACTION: See "Corrupt Configuration File" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: NM Log dictionary table is full. (NMERR 74)

Level: NMERR 74

CAUSE: Network management logging facility has a log dictionary table with a fixed number of available entries. If no free entries are available to complete the caller request this error message is returned. Incompatible software versions installed.

ACTION: See "Invalid Software Installation" and "Version Incompatibilities" at the beginning of this appendix. If this does not resolve the problem, then see "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Data is already associated with this identifier. (NMERR 75)

Level: NMERR 75

CAUSE: Returned by: NMCONFADDDATA. NMFILE detected NMFSERR 12. User attempted to add data to a path location where data already exists. This may not necessarily be an error if the calling program is trying to determine if data already exists at that location. This could also be caused by database corruption, or by an internal error.

ACTION: If data base corruption is suspected, then see "File System Error" at the beginning of this appendix. If an internal error is suspected, then see "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: File associated with this transaction is not locked. (NMERR 76)

Level: NMERR 76

CAUSE: Returned by: NMCONFUNLOCKFILE. NMFILE determined that an NMCONFUNLOCKFILE was attempted on a transaction without a corresponding NMCONFLOCKFILE. This is not necessarily an error if the intent of the caller was to determine the lock status of the file. This could also be caused by an internal error.

ACTION: If an internal error is suspected, see "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: File associated with this transaction is locked. (NMERR 77)

Level: NMERR 77

CAUSE: Returned by: NMCONFADDDATA, NMCONFUPDATEDATA, NMCONFPURGEDATA, NMCONFADDPATH, NMCONFPURGEPATH, NMCONFRENAMEPATH. Some other process has the NMCONF type file locked.

ACTION: Wait until the file is unlocked by the other user(s) before proceeding.



MESSAGE: No data associated with this identifier. (NMERR 78)

Level: NMERR 78

CAUSE: Returned by: NMCONFGETDATA, NMCONFDATALENGTH, NMCONFPURGEDATA, NMCONFUPDATEDATA. NMFILE detected NMFSERR 18. This may not be an error if the call to these procedures was using this return to test if data was associated with the identifier. If it was an error, it could be due to corruption of the database.

ACTION: If file corruption is suspected, see "Corrupt Configuration File" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Buffer length parameter out of allowable range. (NMERR 82)

Level: NMERR 82

CAUSE: Returned by NMCONFGETDATA. Length parameter is longer than 8192 or less than 7. Probable internal error by caller.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Transaction table is full. (NMERR 83)

Level: NMERR 83

CAUSE: Returned if the maximum number of transactions via NMCONF are already opened, and a call to NMCONFOPEN is made.

ACTION: See "Corrupt Configuration File" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Data structures internal error in NMFILE. (NMERR 85)

Level: NMERR 85

CAUSE: Returned by most NMCONF procedures.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Switch to CM failed. (NMERR 86)

Level: NMERR 86

CAUSE: Returned by native mode NMS procedures if an error is returned by SWITCH.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: CM data segment improperly mapped to NM object. (NMERR 87)

Level: NMERR 87

CAUSE: Returned by native mode NMWRITETRACE if an error is returned by wrap-dst.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Parameter not aligned properly. (NMERR 88)

Level: NMERR 88

CAUSE: Internal error by the calling subsystem.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Invalid path type value, must be 1 or 2. (NMERR 90)

Level: NMERR 90

CAUSE: Returned by NMCONFNEXTPATH. NMCONFNEXTPATH detected invalid path type value. Internal error by the calling subsystem.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Unable to purge datafile. (NMERR 92)

Level: NMERR 92

CAUSE: Returned by NMCONFPURGE NMOPENTRACE. File system error.

ACTION: Try to purge the file from a CI session, and note the error. Correct this and retry.



MESSAGE: No identifiers beyond this point in datafile. (NMERR 94)

Level: NMERR 94

CAUSE: Returned by NMCONFNEXTPATH. NMFILE detected warning NMFSWARN 23, in MIDASNEXTPATH. This may not be an error if the caller's intention is to search the data file. Otherwise it might indicate corruption of the file.

ACTION: If file corruption is suspected, see "Corrupt Configuration File" at the beginning of this appendix. If this is not a problem, it may be due to incompatible software modules, or an internal error by the calling subsystem. See "Version Incompatibilities" and "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Read truncated to capacity of buffer. (NMERR 95)

Level: NMERR 95

CAUSE: Returned by NMCONFGETDATA. NMFILE detected NMFWARN 19 on MIDASGETDATA. This is probably an internal error by the calling subsystem.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: File code mismatch. (NMERR 96)

Level: NMERR 96

CAUSE: Returned by NMCONFOPEN. NMFILE detected NMFSWARN 6 on MIDASOPEN. The file is not a valid configuration file.

ACTION: Type LISTF <filename>, 1 on the file. The file type should be type NCONF.

CAUSE: Internal error.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Unable to find port for NMFILE process. (NMERR 97)

Level: NMERR 97

CAUSE: Returned by all NMCONF procedures. Error detected on DICTSEND.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.

Level: NMERR 206

CAUSE: Returned by a subsystem message-generating routine when it was unable to access the specified message catalog. The first parameter is the Subsys (module) name. The second parameter is the Subsys message catalog name. The third parameter is the message number. The fourth parameter is the set number. Note that this message is usually followed by one or more of messages NMERR 207 through 210.

ACTION: Check to see that the names entered actually exist and are spelled correctly. Read any other error messages which are also displayed, and take the action(s) recommended to correct the problem(s) described by those messages.



MESSAGE: Encountered FOPEN FSERR ! on !. (NMERR 207)

Level: NMERR 207

CAUSE: Returned by a subsystem message-generating routine when it was unable to FOPEN the specified message catalog. The first parameter is the FSERR number. The second parameter is the message catalog name. This message is usually preceded by message NMERR 206.

ACTION: Correct the FOPEN error and retry.



MESSAGE: Encountered GENMESSAGE error !. (NMERR 208)

Level: NMERR 208

CAUSE: Returned by a subsystem message-generating routine, usually following NMERR 206. The parameter is the GENMESSAGE errnum. If the error number is 1 or 2, NMERR 209 follows with a further description. Otherwise, the error is described in the MPE Intrinsics Manual under GENMESSAGE.

ACTION: If the error number is 1 or 2, see message NMERR 209. If the error number is not 1 or 2, look up the error number in the MPE Intrinsics Manual under GENMESSAGE. It is likely the problem is due to a bad software installation. If this is consistent with the GENMESSAGE error, the configuration file may be corrupted. Run NMMGR and verify that the configuration file is okay. Otherwise, correct the problem causing the GENMESSAGE error and try again.



MESSAGE: GENMESSAGE encountered FSERR !. (NMERR 209)

Level: NMERR 209

CAUSE: Returned by a subsystem message-generating routine. The parm is the FSERR number. This message usually follows NMERR 208, and is usually followed with the text of the FSError message as well (by calling the intrinsic FErrMsg).

ACTION: Correct the FS error and retry.



MESSAGE: Encountered FCLOSE FSERR ! on !. (NMERR 210)

Level: NMERR 210

CAUSE: Returned by a subsystem message-generating routine after reading a message from the specified message catalog. The first parameter is the FSERR number. The second parameter is the message catalog name. The FCLOSE of the message catalog failed.

ACTION: Correct the File System error and retry.



MESSAGE: Config file internal error detected and recovery failed. (NMERR 220)

Level: NMERR 220

CAUSE: The configuration file is possibly corrupted.

ACTION: See "Corrupt Configuration Files" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Total data length too large to return as integer. (NMERR 221)

Level: NMERR 221

CAUSE: Returned by NMCONFSONINFO. The total data length associated with the path name and all its first level sons was greater than 32767 and could not be returned to caller. It is possible that the configuration file is corrupt. It is also possible that there is no error at all. It is theoretically possible, although unlikely, to have more than 32767 bytes of data associated with a path and its first level sons.

ACTION: See "Corrupt Configuration Files" at the beginning of this appendix.

CAUSE: Possible internal error.

ACTION: See "Submitting an SR" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Son count too large to return as integer. (NMERR 222)

Level: NMERR 222

CAUSE: Returned by NMCONFSONINFO. The number of first level sons linked to the path name sent by the calling subsystem exceeds 32767. It is possible that the configuration file is corrupt. It is also possible that an internal error occurred.

ACTION: See "Getting Help" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Request type out of bounds — error in port msg to NMFILE. (NMERR 223)

Level: NMERR 223

CAUSE: Returned if NMFILE receives a request type that it does not recognize as being a valid NMCONF intrinsic request on its NMCONF subqueue.

ACTION: Internal error. See "Getting Help" at the beginning of this appendix.



MESSAGE: Will use LOGGING configuration for this subsystem that is already active. (NMERR 301)

Level: NMERR 301

CAUSE: Returned by NMOPENLOG, NMOPENLOG2. The open log was successful and logging may proceed. Note that there is another openlog outstanding for the same subsystem id, so the configuration information already in use will continue to be used. This result code is returned as a negative number (-301) to indicate it is not an error and that the openlog was in fact successful.

ACTION: None.
