CMCC System Error Messages


The system can report error conditions in numerous facility codes related to the Cisco Mainframe Channel Connection (CMCC) product family. The CMCC product family includes the Channel Interface Processor (CIP) and the Channel Port Adapter (CPA). The format of CMCC error messages differs from the format of other system error messages.

The format for CMCC error messages parallels the format for other system error messages; however, CMCC error messages also indicate the card and slot reporting the error. CMCC error messages begin with a percent sign (%) and are structured as follows:

%CARD-SEVERITY-MSG:SLOT %FACILITY-SEVERITY-MNEMONIC: Message-text

CARD is a code that describes the type of card reporting the error. CIP, CIP2, ECPA, and PCPA are possible card types.

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. Table 1 lists the severity levels.

MSG is a mnemonic that indicates this is an error message. It is always shown as MSG.

SLOT indicates the slot number of the card reporting the error. It is shown as SLOT followed by a number. (For example, SLOT5.)

FACILITY 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. Table 2 lists the CMCC facility codes.

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]. Table 3 lists the representations of variable fields and the type of information in them.

The format of non-CMCC error messages is discussed in the "About this Manual" chapter at the beginning of this book.

The following is a sample CMCC error message:

%ECPA-6-MSG:slot5 %SYSMGT_RPC-6-STATE_CHANGE: System Management [chars]

%CLAW-0-DELFAILED : Tree deletion failed but entry was found, key=[hex]

Explanation    When running with IP Host Backup enabled, the application that owns the IP address is stored in a tree. When the application that owns the IP address is done with the IP address, the owner removes itself from the tree. Before removing itself, a check is made to see if it exists. It did exist, but the delete request failed.

Recommended Action    This is a fatal internal logic error. The CIP microcode has been reinitialized. If this error persists, stop using the IP Host Backup feature until the problem can be corrected.

Error Message    

%CLAW-3-DELNOTHERE : Tree deletion requested but entry does not exist, requestor=[hex][hex][hex] [hex]

Explanation    When running with IP Host Backup enabled, the application that owns the IP address is stored in a tree. When the application that owns the IP address is done with the IP address, the owner removes itself from the tree. Before removing itself, a check is made to verify that the entry exists. The entry did not exist.

Recommended Action    This is an internal logic error. It may prevent IP Host Backup from working properly. If this error persists, stop using the IP Host Backup feature until the problem can be corrected.

Error Message     

%CLAW-3-DELNOTME : Tree deletion requested but entry not owned, requestor=[hex][hex][hex] [hex], owner=[hex][hex][hex] [hex]

Explanation    When running with IP Host Backup enabled, the application that owns the IP address is stored in a tree. When the application that owns the IP address is done with the IP address, the owner removes itself from the tree. Before removing itself, a check is made to see if it is really the owner of the IP address. It was not the owner.

Recommended Action    This is an internal logic error. It may prevent IP Host Backup from working properly. If this error persists, stop using the IP Host Backup feature until the problem can be corrected.

Error Message     

%CLAW-0-DUPMISSING : Tree insertion failed but duplicate entry not found, key=[hex]

Explanation    When running with IP Host Backup enabled, the application that owns the IP address is stored in a tree. When an attempt is made to claim the IP address, the application is inserted into the tree. If the insert fails, then the tree is searched to find the owner of the application so that an appropriate error message may be issued. If this search fails, then this message is issued to indicate that the tree is corrupted.

Recommended Action    This is a fatal internal logic error. The CIP microcode has been reinitialized. If this error persists, stop using the IP Host Backup feature until the problem can be corrected.
