Table 4. NDIS 2.01 (OS/2) driver messages for the Ethernet controller (continued)

PCNTND-23

WARNING: PCNET IRQ found = xx

 

Explanation: The interrupt request (IRQ) setting (xx) in the PROTOCOL.INI file

 

does not match the hardware IRQ setting.

 

Action: Remove the IRQ setting from the PROTOCOL.INI file or change the IRQ

 

setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file to match the IRQ setting shown in the PCI

 

Slot/Device Information selection of the Advanced Setup menu in the

 

Configuration/Setup Utility program.

 

 

PCNTND-24

WARNING: PCNET IRQ does not match PROTOCOL.INI.

 

Explanation: The interrupt request (IRQ) setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file does not

 

match the hardware IRQ setting.

 

Action: Remove the IRQ setting from the PROTOCOL.INI file or change the IRQ

 

setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file to match the IRQ setting shown in the PCI

 

Slot/Device Information selection of the Advanced Setup menu in the

 

Configuration/Setup Utility program.

 

 

PCNTND-25

PCI scan specified, PCI bus not found!

 

Explanation: The driver cannot locate the PCI bus.

 

Action: Run the diagnostic programs.

 

 

PCNTND-29

WARNING: DMA number is not necessary for PCI device.

 

Explanation: The Ethernet controller does not require a DMA setting.

 

Action: Remove the DMA setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file.

 

 

PCNTND-33

PCNET device with specified IOBASE is already in use.

 

Explanation: The specified I/O address number is already in use by another

 

Ethernet controller or device.

 

Action: Remove the I/O address setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file.

 

 

NDIS 4.0 (Windows NT) driver messages

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

Table 5. NDIS (Windows NT) driver messages for the Ethernet controller

PermaNetServer:

No Secondary Adapter Found. Grouping Mode is disabled.

 

Explanation: The failover option requires an adapter that is compatible with the

 

device driver of the Ethernet controller on the system board. No such adapter was

 

found.

 

Action: Make sure the correct adapter is installed.

 

 

PermaNet 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 transferred all network traffic to the secondary Ethernet controller.

 

Action: identify the cause of the failure on the primary Ethernet connection.

 

Restoring the operational state of the primary connection will cause the network traffic

 

to automatically transfer to the primary Ethernet controller.

 

 

PermaNet 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.
