there). If the link is being used with NS or DTS, use the VALIDATE
function to validate the network configuration. Correct any
configuration errors and retry the operation.
MESSAGE: Cannot validate configuration file.
200 ($C8) CAUSE: After successfully reading configuration data for a link being
started, the link module configurator checked the data and found it was
not valid. For NS/3000, probably the link type and NI type do not
match.
ACTION: Using NMMGR, verify the path LINK.linkname exists in the
NMCONFIG file and is either a 100VG-AnyLAN or 100Base-T link
type. If the subsystem being started is NS, verify the link type matches
the NI type for the network being started. If these are not the problem,
an incorrect version of NMMGR may have been used to create the
NMCONFIG file on your system. Run NMMAINT.PUB.SYS;PARM=24 to
check versions of NMMGR components. The format of your
NMCONFIG file may be incompatible with the link driver version
installed on your system. Run NMMGRVER.PUB.SYS to update your
NMCONFIG file to a newer version, or restore an older version from a
backup tape, whichever is appropriate. If the problem still occurs,
contact your Hewlett-Packard Representative for assistance in using
NMMGR to configure 100VG-AnyLAN or 100Base-T links.
MESSAGE: Cannot determine link type.
203 ($CB) CAUSE: Early in a link open operation by an upper level subsystem, the
link module configurator encountered an error while attempting to use
Link Support Services to determine the type of link being started.
Probably the link is not completely configured.
ACTION: If the link is already started, LSS tries to read the link type
from its own link table. Otherwise, it tries to read it from the
NMCONFIG file. Using NMMGR, verify the path LINK.linkname
exists in the NMCONFIG file and is the exact same linkname which is
now being started. Verify the “Data=Y” flag is set at the top of that
LINK screen (meaning that ENTER has been pressed to save the
configuration data there). If the link is being used with NS or DTS, use
the VALIDATE function to validate the network configuration. Correct
any configuration errors and retry the operation.
MESSAGE: Cannot read from link table.
204 ($CC) CAUSE: Early in a link open operation by an upper level subsystem, the
link module configurator attempted to determine if the link was already
running, by trying to read from the link table, but an error occurred
which was not one of the expected, legal errors the configurator was
designed to handle.
