SDI Driver Specific Status Values
MESSAGE: A driver request failed.
117 ($75) CAUSE: This is a generic software error, used when the driver receives
a new request but cannot process it because of an earlier failure. It is
used in the reply to the outside module which requested the operation,
to indicate it could not be processed.
ACTION: If this status is reported, it is because of some earlier failure.
Check log files and locate any previous errors for this link, to try to find
the reason this error is now occurring. By running the VGPBA
diagnostic and trying the Reset function, you may be able to clear the
error.
MESSAGE: Driver dump was forced.
119 ($77) CAUSE: A user is forcing a driver dump to occur, typically via the
VGPBA diagnostic tool program.
ACTION: This error is informational only. The dump is probably being
forced because the system operator suspects a link driver problem.
Forward the resulting NETDMP##.PUB.SYS file to Hewlett-Packard for
analysis if necessary, and see Appendix A, “Submitting an SR.”
MESSAGE: Driver is going down.
121 ($79) CAUSE: A request to the driver failed because the driver is in the
process of shutting down, or because it has encountered a fatal software
error and has not yet been shut down.
ACTION: If this status is reported during a shutdown operation, it may
be ignored. Otherwise this should be a signal to the operator that the
link driver has a problem and needs to be shut down, or dumped and/or
reset.
MESSAGE: Driver has detected data corruption.
125 ($7D) CAUSE: A driver receive-frame DMA operation completed, but in doing
a quick check of the DMA’ed data, the driver found all ones in the first 4
words, indicating some kind of driver/ adapter card bug has occurred.
Probably the driver attempted to perform a DMA transfer which was
not a 4-byte multiple in length.
ACTION: This is a fatal error. The driver has halted all operations to
prevent mishandling any user data, and did not forward the received
frame to upper layer protocols. The driver will now attempt to perform
a dump of all host context data structures and adapter card memory,
then reset itself and continue. Save the resulting NETDMP##.PUB.SYS
dump data file for analysis by Hewlett-Packard. See Appendix A,
“Submitting an SR.”
