NDIS 4.0 (Windows NT) Driver Messages

This section contains the error messages for the NDIS 4.0 drivers. The and recommended action are included with each message.

PermaNet(tm)	Server: No	Secondary	Adapter Found. Grouping	Mode	is disabled.
Explanation:	The failover option requires an adapter that					is	compatible with the device
Ethernet	controller	on	the system board. No such adapter			was	found.
Action: Make sure		the	correct adapter	is	installed.		.

PermaNet(tm)

Server:

Problem

Occurs on the

Primary Adapter. Switching

over to

the Secondary

Adapter.

Explanation:

The

system

detected

a

problem

with

the

primary Ethernet

connection

and has t

all network

traffic

to

the

secondary Ethernet controller.

Action:

Identify the

cause of the failure on the primary Ethernet connection. Restoring

state

of

the

primary

connection

will

cause

the

network traffic to

automatically

transfer

Ethernet

controller.

PermaNet(tm) Server: Switching back to Primary Adapter.

Explanation: The primary Ethernet connection is now operating correctly. Network traffic will automatically transfer to the primary Ethernet controller.

Action: None needed, message is for information only. .

UNIX Messages

This section			contains the error messages for the	SCO	UNIX LLI driver.
pnt0-2	PCI	search	specified, PCI device not found!
Explanation:		The	driver cannot locate the Ethernet controller on	the	PCI bus.
Action:	Run	the	NETCONFIG program to search for another Ethernet	controller.

Verify that the PCI Ethernet device type is set to the default (enabled) position in

Configuration/Setup

utility programs (see “PCI Bus Control” on page 29).

If the

problem

persists,

go

to “Diagnostic Test Programs” on

page 111

to run

the

diagno

pnt0-6

Cannot

allocate

memory

for

the

adapter during

an interrupt. Please

check your

Streams parameters.

Explanation:

On

a

SunSoft

Solaris

system,

this message

indicates

that the

system

is

out of

memory blocks.

Action: Use the CRASH utility to increase the number of Streams memory blocks.

Modify the interrupt request (IRQ) settings in the Configuration/Setup utility programs, or NETCONFIG program to match the hardware settings.

pnt0-7 Cannot allocate memory for the adapter during reset. Please check your Streams parameters.

Explanation: The system is out of Streams memory blocks.

Action: Use the CRASH utility to increase the number of Streams memory blocks.

pnt0-11 Device not found!

Explanation: The driver cannot find an Ethernet controller.

Action: Verify that the PCI Ethernet device type is set to the default (enabled) pos Configuration/Setup utility programs (see “PCI Bus Control” on page 29). If the Ethernet ad enabled, go to “Diagnostic Test Programs” on page 111 to run the diagnostic utility.
