Data Corruption Errors that the SMU Application can Handle
Data corruption errors that the SMU may be able to handle include corruption of template files
used by the SMU (files that represent UI screens to be sent from the core components to the
application). In this type of case, the SMU can detect that there is a problem when it is not able
to correctly parse such a file, which means the application is not able to correctly display a
screen. For this type of error, a message is displayed, indicating that a data corruption error has
been encountered and that the current action cannot be completed. You are asked to select a
new task from the task list.
Internal Errors For Which a View Cannot Be Generated
In a few cases, errors may be serious enough to prevent the SMU core components from
supplying error information to you. These errors may include certain types of memory
allocation errors or, in the remote case, the loss of the connection between the SMU application
and the core components. In such cases, the SMU application (if possible), indicates to you that
a shutdown of the software should occur and the server be rebooted.
