Chapter 3 Message and Recovery Procedures

PM Messages

Error Message PM-4-INT_VLAN_NOTAVAIL: Failed to allocate internal VLAN in Port

Manager.

Explanation The port manager failed to find any available internal VLAN.

Recommended Action Delete some extended-range VLANs created by users, or remove some features

(such as routed ports) that require internal VLAN allocation. To delete extended-range VLANs, use

the no vlan vlan-id global configuration command. To delete a routed port, use the no switchport

interface configuration command.

Error Message PM-4-INVALID_HOST_ACCESS_ENTRY: Invalid Host access entry type ([dec])

is received.

Explanation An invalid host access entry type was received; the host access entry should be a

configured or a dynamic type. [dec] is the entry type that is received.

Recommended Action Copy the message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log.

Research and attempt to resolve the error by using the Output Interpreter. Enter the show

tech-support user EXEC command to gather data that might help identify the nature of the error.

Use the Bug Toolkit to look for similar reported problems. If you still require assistance, open a case

with the TAC, or contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative

with the gathered information. For more information about these online tools and about contacting

Cisco, see the “Error Message Traceback Reports” section on page 2-7.

Error Message PM-4-LIMITS: The number of vlan-port instances on [chars] exceeded the

recommended limit of [dec].

Explanation The total number of individual VLAN ports, counted over the module or switch, has

exceeded the recommended limit. VLANs can be counted more than once ; if VLAN 1 is carried on

ten interfaces, it will count as ten VLAN ports. On some platforms bundling is also ignored for

purposes of this count; if eight interfaces on the same module are in one bundle, and the port channel

is carrying VLAN 1, it will count as eight VLAN ports. [chars] is the module name (for example,

switch or the module number), and [dec] is the reco mmended limit.

Recommended Action Reduce the number of trunks and VLANs configured in the modu le or switch

as recommended in [dec]. Enter the show interfaces trunk privileged EXEC command to see the

total number of trunks and VLANs.

Error Message PM-4-NO_SUBBLOCK: No PM subblock found for [chars].

Explanation The port manager failed to find the subblock for this interface. [chars] is the interface
