System Error Messages
for the Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server
This document lists and describes Cisco IOS system error messages for the Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server for Cisco IOS Release 11.3(3)AA. The system software sends these error messages to the console during operation and, optionally, to a logging server on another system. Not all system error messages indicate problems with your system. Some are purely informational, while others may help diagnose problems with communications lines, internal hardware, or the system software. For a complete list of error messages for Cisco IOS Release 11.3, see the online document at:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios113ed/sem/index.htm. For a complete list of error messages for Cisco IOS Release 11.3T, see the online document at:

The messages are organized according to the particular system facility that produces the messages. The facility sections appear in alphabetical order, and within each facility section, messages are listed alphabetically by mnemonic. Each error message is followed by an explanation and a recommended action.
System error messages begin with a percent sign (%) and are structured as follows:
%FACILITY-SUBFACILITY-SEVERITY-MNEMONIC: Message-textFACILITY is a code consisting of two or more uppercase letters that indicate the facility to which the message refers. A facility can be a hardware device, a protocol, or a module of the system software lists the system facilities codes.
SUBFACILITY is a code that is relevant only in Channel Interface Processor (CIP) error messages. There are currently no CIP error messages in this section.
SEVERITY is a single-digit code from 0 to 7 that reflects the severity of the condition. The lower the number, the more serious the situation. lists the severity levels.
MNEMONIC is a code that uniquely identifies the error message.
Message-text is a text string describing the condition. This portion of the message sometimes contains detailed information about the event, including terminal port numbers, network addresses, or addresses that correspond to locations in the system memory address space. Because the information in these variable fields changes from message to message, it is represented here by short strings enclosed in square brackets ([ ]). A decimal number, for example, is represented as [dec]. lists the representations of variable fields and the type of information in them.

Facility Codes
Table 2 Error Message Severity Levels
Error message severity levels correspond to the keywords assigned by the logging global configuration commands that define where and at what level these messages appear. The default is to log messages to the console at the debugging level (7). For more information, see the system configuration chapter and descriptions of the logging command in the appropriate Cisco IOS configuration guide and command reference publications.

Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears, and report it to your technical support representative.
Error Message%FB-3-EVENT: Unknown event [dec] for slot [dec]Explanation The software generated an unknown event for the specified slot. This is a software error.
Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears, and report it to your technical support representative.
Error Message%FB-6-OIR: Card in slot [dec] [chars]Explanation A dial shelf feature card was inserted or removed from the specified slot. This is a informatory message.
Recommended Action No action is required.
Error Message%FB-3-SLOTSTATUS: Invalid change from [chars] ([dec]) to [chars] ([dec]) for slot [dec]Explanation The software detected an invalid state change for the specified slot. This is a software error.
Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears, and report it to your technical support representative.
Error Message%FBINFO-3-CRASH: Feature board in slot [int] crashedExplanation The feature board in the slot indicated crashed and sent a CRASH_START message to the DSI. The DSI is now waiting for the rest of the crash information from the line card to be sent via the MBUS (stack trace, context, version, etc.). This should happen in a few milliseconds after receiving the CRASH_START message. The DSI software has not otherwise been notified of the line card crash -- that will happen after all the crash information has been sent to the DSI. In the unlikely event that the subsequent crash information messages are not received by the DSI within a reasonable time limit (perhaps 10 secs), the DSI will print a TIMEOUT error message indicating that and tell the rest of the DSI software that the feature board has crashed.
Recommended Action Report this defect with as much information about the feature board in question including the output of show context summary, show context slot N and show tech-support N as well as the usual show tech-support from the RS.
Error Message%FBINFO-3-INVDEV: Invalid feature board number in MBUS callback (LC=[int])Explanation The feature board crash information subsystem on the DSI was called from the MBUS subsystem with an invalid DEVICE identifier. The DEVICE in this case is supposed to be the slot number of the line card, but it was out of range. This indicates a software defect in the system.
Recommended Action Report this defect with as much information about the MBUS subsystem as possible. There is no adverse effect to the DSI -- it ignores the bad callback and continues. If the problem persists, reboot the router. It is unlikely but possible that the problem is due to bad MBUS hardware somewhere in the system -- most likely the DSI MBUS module.
Error Message%FBINFO-3-INVSTATE: Feature board crash server in bad state (LC=[int], state=[int]), MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation The feature board crash information subsystem for the feature board indicated it is in an unknown state. This is due to a software defect in that subsystem.
Recommended Action Report this defect with as much information about the MBUS subsystem and the feature board crash information subsystem possible.
Error Message%FBINFO-3-NOPROCESS: Failed creating feature board complete processExplanation When creating the crash complete process for the crash information subsystem the create_process call failed. This should not happen. It is probably due to a software defect or hardware failure. This failure should only happen during initialization.
Recommended Action Rebooting the system should fix this. If the condition persists on subsequent reloads of the system, a bug should be filed and the system should be reloaded with a different image.
Error Message%FBINFO-3-TIMEOUT: Timeout waiting for crash info from slot [int]Explanation The crash information complete timer expired. When a feature board crashes, it sends information to the DSI for debugging and analysis. When the START OF CRASH message is received, a timer is set for approx 10 seconds. The line card has 10 seconds to send all the crash information to the DSI. This is not a crash dump -- this is a small amount of information that usually includes context, stack trace, etc. It is less than 8K bytes of information. If an END OF CRASH information message is not received before the timer goes off, the crash information record is closed (contains partial information), this message is displayed, and the rest of the system is notified that the feature board crashed (at which point it is probably reloaded). If the feature board sends more crash information after the timer goes off and before the system resets the feature board additional UNXMSG error message might be displayed.
Recommended Action No action is required specifically because this message was displayed. Because the feature board was crashing there might be other defects to report. If this message is seen without a feature board crashing report this defect with the output of the usual commands including show tech-support on the RS, on the feature board that didn't crash but was mentioned in this error message.
Error Message%FBINFO-4-TRUNC: Crash record ([int]=[chars]) truncated (expected=[int], actual=[int])Explanation A feature board crashed and was sending crash information to the RS. The RS received a CRASH RECORD START message that indicated the data would be "expected" bytes long. Before that many bytes were received, the RS received another CRASH RECORD START message indicating the start of another record. The current record is marked as truncated, and the next record is received, but the anomaly is noted in this error message. This is a problem, but because what started this process was a line card crashing, this might only be a symptom of another underlying problem.
Recommended Action Report this defect with as much information about the MBUS subsystem and the line card crash information subsystem possible.
Error Message%FBINFO-4-UNXMSG: Unexpected crash info msg type ([chars]) in state [chars] (LC=[int])Explanation The feature board crash information subsystem received an unexpected message for the state it is in. The state and message type are given in the error message. This does not have any adverse effect on the DSI since it ignores and/or recovers from this occurrence. Because the sender of these messages is a feature board that is crashing, it is not completely unbelievable that this might happen. The source of the crash on the line card is more interesting. If this occurs without a line card crashing, it is due to a stray/errant MBUS message that should be pursued. This could also be due to a dropped MBUS message.
Recommended Action Find the source of the crash on the feature board if one was crashing when the message occurred. If no feature board was crashing, report this defect with as much information about the MBUS subsystem and the feature board crash information subsystem as possible. If this message persists, rebooting the router might help remove this message.
Error Message%IFS-3-FS_CREATE_FAIL2: Failed to create [chars] simple file system, [chars]Explanation An internal software error occurred.
Recommended Action Call your technical support representative for assistance.
Error Message%IFS-3-FS_CREATE_FAIL: Failed to create [chars] file system, [chars]Explanation An internal software error occurred.
Recommended Action Call your technical support representative for assistance.
Error Message%IFS-3-FS_MISSING_FUNCTIONS: '[chars]' file system missing required functions, not createdExplanation Some file systems require a certain set of function to be present in order to be usable. This file system does not support all the mandatory functionality.
Recommended Action Call your technical support representative for assistance.
Error Message%MBUS-2-FIRMWARE: RAM version download to slot [dec] failedExplanation The RAM version of the MBUS agent firmware could not be downloaded "to specified slot. This may be a software or hardware bug."
Recommended Action Submit a bug with as much information as possible including the console output at the time of the error.
Error Message%MBUS-3-MSGTOOBIG: Message type [int] to [int] has length [int] (exceeds [int]), MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation Software called send_mbus_msg with a length greater than 254. "This is a software bug."
Recommended Action Submit a bug with as much information as possible including the console output at the time of the error.
Error Message%MBUS-2-NORESPONSE: From [chars] agent. [chars]Explanation The interface to the MBUS agent firmware has gone deaf. "This is a software bug."
Recommended Action Submit a bug with as much information as possible including the console output at the time of the error.
Error Message%MBUS-6-STATECHANGE: New state is '[chars]'Explanation This is an informational message. The DSI changed state with respect to MBUS control and became either a master or a slave. In a dial shelf with just one DSI, it must always be a master.
Recommended Action No action is required.
Error Message%MBUS-3-UNKNOWN_REGISTER: Status change message for register [hex] in slot [dec], value = [hex]Explanation The MBUS agent for the specified slot reported a status change for a register that is no longer being monitored.
Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the gathered information.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-ENQUEUE: Failed to queue message from slot [dec] stream [dec], MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation Failed to enqueue a message from the interrupt for process level software. The message will be dropped. This points to a potential problem in the mbus process level message handling. This can occur if there are problems with the mbus process specifically or there maybe general IOS process related issues. This may also happen if the mbus process is not scheduled for extended periods of time and there is heavy MBUS traffic.
Recommended Action If this is a persistent problem, either the mbus process is dead or there are other IOS related problems. Consider rebooting the GRP if possible.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-MAXSIZE: Message from slot [dec] stream [dec] of length [dec] max message size [dec]Explanation Message from a slot exceeded maximum message size and hence will be dropped. This should not happen during normal operations.
Recommended Action Verify health of MBUS using show mbus counters and the show mbus can-error commands. If any particular card shows errors and this condition persists, try reloading the card if possible. The error counts in the show mbus commands can be cleared using clear mbus-statistics.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-MSGTOOBIG: MBUS message length too big (dev=[int], type=[int], len=[int]), MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation Software tried to send a message with a length greater than 254.
Recommended Action Submit a bug with as much information as possible including the console output at the time of the error.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-NOBUFFER: Message from slot [dec] in stream [dec] dropped, MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation Message from the slot was dropped as there were no MBUS buffers available. Either the messages are coming too fast or the process level message handling is not draining messages quickly enough.
Recommended Action This condition should correct itself. Check if the GRP is being inundated by messages from the chassis. If the condition persists, consider rebooting the GRP.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-NOCHANNEL: Failed to allocate MBUS channel for over 10 secs, MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation No MBUS channel could be allocated for sending messages. There is either very heavy MBUS traffic or there is a hardware problem. If there is temporary heavy traffic, the condition will clear itself. In case of hardware errors either the mbus agent has died or the hardware interface to the mailbox is not draining messages. Resetting the processor (including agent) may clear the problem. If the problem persists the card probably has hardware problems and needs diagnosis.
Recommended Action Power cycle the card. If problem persists the card probably has a hardware problem.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-REASSEMBLY: Error slot [dec], stream [dec] [chars], MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation A reassembly error was detected for the given slot/stream combination. Either the slot/stream combination was incorrect (so it gave an invalid reassembly buffer index) or the first/last (or last few) packet(s) was/were lost. The message will be dropped which may cause errors for the application running over MBUS.
Recommended Action This condition should correct itself. No action is required.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-0-REGISTRY: Failed to create registry [chars] [chars]Explanation The specified registry could not be created. This is a catastrophic error for this feature. This needs a developer's intervention for a solution.
Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears, and report it to your technical support representative.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-SEQUENCE: Sequencing error (slot [dec], stream [dec]): expected [dec], received [dec], MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation An incorrect sequence number was detected in a multi packet message. This could happen if the source packetized the message incorrectly (unlikely) or one/more packets got dropped.
Recommended Action Check if there is excessive MBUS activity, copious printing from a line card etc. The command show mbus counters can provide lost message count.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-TIMEOUT: Timeout on mbus request. Dest = [int], type = [int], addr = 0x[hex], MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation Failed to receive a response from a mbus request. This could be either a request for a eeprom field or a register read.
Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears, and report it to your technical support representative.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-TXERR: Failed to transmit MBUS message for over 10 secs, MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation Message could not be transmitted since all the transmit buffers are full for ever 10 seconds. This may be a temporary problem if there is heavy MBUS traffic. Otherwise it is probably a hardware problem. Either the mbus agent is not responding or the hardware interface is not generating interrupts.
Recommended Action If this is a persistent problem power cycle the card. If the problem still continues it is likely to be a hardware problem and needs diagnosis.
Error Message%MBUS_SYS-3-UNEXPECTED: Unexpected response key = [int], current key = [int], MSGDEF_LIMIT_MEDIUMExplanation Received an unexpected response to a read register or read eeprom.
Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears, and report it to your technical support representative.
