The bit pattern is:
Bits 1, 2—Local abit
Bit 2, 4—Local AIS
Bit 5, 6—Local OAM
Bit 7, 8—Local Conditioned
Bit 9, 10—Remote abit
Bit 11, 12—Remote AIS
Bit 13, 14—Remote OAM
Bit 15, 16—Remote Conditioned
Step 1 If the value is not what is expected, check the connection level databases for each segment to see if they
are correct. See J.10.13.2.1 Connection Inconsistency Between the Switch and GUI, page J-129. The
last message on the segment in question is the important one.
Defect Information—See J.10.13.2.1 Connection Inconsistency Between the Switch and GUI, page
J-129.
Possible alternative workaround—See J.10.13.2.1 Connection Inconsistency Between the Switch and
GUI, page J-129.

J.10.13.2.4 Incomplete Connections
A common issue is having too many connections on a given card. This problem may be a result of
incomplete connections. For example, if a feeder segment of a three-segment connection has not been
processed by the databroker, the incomplete connection will have an endpoint of a routing node, not the
missing feeder. There will appear to be too many connections on the routing node. A connection can be
identified as incomplete if the state is equal to four in the user_connection table.
Step 1 Check the user_connection table for the number of segments and the inseg flags for the connection in
question.
Step 2 Select num_segs, status, inseg_tbl_1, inseg_tbl_2, inseg_tbl_3 from user_connection where l_node_id
= x and l_slot=y and l_port=z and l_subchnl_1 = v and l_subchnl_2 = w.
Defect Information—You need the logs of the processes on both sides of the interface on which the
message was dropped. A dump of the specific user_connection table entry that is incorrect is also useful.
The specific node, slot, logical_port, vpi, vci of both ends of the connection in question is also useful.
Possible alternative workarounds—If the problem is between the sdbroker cache and the database, a
cache resync can be done. To do this execute the command /usr/usrs/svplus/tools/CacheResync [-t <time
in seconds>].
