UNIX messages

 

This section provides descriptions of the Ethernet error messages for the SCO

 

UNIX LLI driver, and suggested actions to resolve each problem.

Table 6. UNIX LLI driver messages for the Ethernet controller

 

 

pnt0-2

PCI search specified, PCI device not found!

 

Explanation: The driver cannot locate the Ethernet controller on the PCI bus.

 

Action:

 

v Run the NETCONFIG program to search for another Ethernet controller

 

v Verify that the Ethernet controller is enabled. If the Ethernet controller is enabled, run the

 

diagnostic programs.

 

 

pnt0-6

Cannot allocate memory for the adapter during an interrupt. Please check the Streams

 

parameters.

 

Explanation: On a SunSoft Solaris system, this message indicates that the system is out of

 

Streams 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 program, or run the

 

NETCONFIG program to match the hardware settings.

 

 

pnt0-7

Cannot allocate memory for the adapter during reset. Please check the 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 Ethernet controller is enabled. If the Ethernet controller is enabled, run

 

the diagnostic programs.

 

 

pnt0-12

Device failed checksum test!

 

Explanation: The driver cannot find an Ethernet controller.

 

Action: Verify that the Ethernet controller is enabled. If the Ethernet controller is enabled, run

 

the diagnostic programs.

 

 

pnt0-13

add_intr_handler failed! Interrupts already enabled.

 

Explanation: The interrupt request (IRQ) that was specified, or the IRQ that was found,

 

conflicts with other devices in the server.

 

Action: Modify the hardware settings.

 

 

pnt0-14

Cannot locate hardware.

 

Explanation: The SunSoft Solaris driver cannot find any Ethernet controller.

 

Action: Verify that the Ethernet controller is enabled. If the Ethernet controller is enabled, run

 

the diagnostic programs.

 

 

pnt0-15

No more devices to open.

 

Explanation: The SunSoft Solaris driver cannot find any more Ethernet controllers. Action:

 

Verify that additional IBM 10/100 Fault Tolerant Adapters are present or replace the Ethernet

 

adapter that fails to respond. If the problem persists, run the diagnostic programs.

 

 

pnt0-17

Device fault...Reset initiated!

 

Explanation: The SunSoft Solaris driver has been reset due to a device fault.

 

Action: Verify that additional IBM 10/100 Fault Tolerant Adapters are present or replace the

 

Ethernet adapter that fails to respond. If the problem persists, run the diagnostic programs.
