Appendix A. Messages About Configuration File Errors

This appendix lists the error messages and warnings that can appear as output of the ha_cfgverify command that are related to Oracle configuration. Other messages are described in Appendix A of the IRIS FailSafe Administrator's Guide .


Note: ha_cfgverify generates warnings when a possible error exists, but it is unable to determine for sure. You must check each warning manually. A warning could indicate invalid IRIS FailSafe configuration.

The error messages are given in alphabetical order.
