This appendix lists the messages produced by the VME Sync board and suggests user responses. The messages are organized into sections according to message type.
Following are error messages produced by the VME Sync board software utilities.
ABORT: illegal adapter number <boardnum>. ABORT: illegal channel ID <channe l> WARNING: input file foo not found - using defaults WARNING: Bits foo and bar both set - ignored WARNING: invalid keyword = FOO FOO: value out of range, must be between [x, y]. |
Generally, out of range values and illegal combinations cause the utility to set the parameter to the default value and a warning message to be printed to stderr.
This section lists the error messages that are produced by the VME Sync board software drivers. In these messages, "%d" is a decimal number and "%x" or "0x%x" is a hexadecimal number.
Following are messages that may be corrected by re-executing the start- up procedure. If that does not clear the error condition, report the message to SGI Customer Support.
