2690 CLAS0001 MESSAGE: Internal error while initiating a dump. Dump failed.
CAUSE: During processing of a fatal driver error, the driver attempted a
driver dump, but encountered an error while trying to get or reset a
timer (“Cause” = 32-bit status returned by the call to
lnk_timer_start). This timer was to be used to avoid deadlock in case
the dump process did not respond; the driver cannot attempt a dump if
a dump timer cannot be started. If this error is reported, it is because
the driver has already encountered some other error.
ACTION: Typically preceded by another error message giving better
information about the original cause; check log data for that error and
look it up also. The driver did not dump, but will still attempt to auto-
reset itself, up to a total of 12 times or more.
2720 CLAS0001 MESSAGE: Cannot send a port message.
CAUSE: During final processing of a fatal driver error, the driver
attempted a driver dump, but was unable to send a dump event to the
dump process (“Cause” = 32-bit status returned by the call to
send_msg). If this error is reported, it is because the driver has already
encountered some other error.
ACTION: The driver did not dump, but will still attempt to auto-reset
itself, up to a total of 12 times or more.
2750 CLAS0001 MESSAGE: Internal error while initiating a dump. Dump failed.
CAUSE: During processing of some other fatal driver error, the driver
attempted a driver dump, but encountered an error. It then
encountered this second error while trying to clean up, when
attempting to release a dump timer it had obtained (“Cause” = 32-bit
status returned by the call to lnk_timer_stop).
ACTION: Typically preceded by another error giving better information
about the original cause; check log data for that error and look it up
also. This error is mainly informational, since the driver did not dump,
but may be indicative of other, possibly-related problems. The driver
will still attempt to auto- reset itself, up to a total of 12 times or more.
2780 CLAS0001 MESSAGE: General error trying to get a buffer
CAUSE: When attempting to build a setup frame for the PCI 100Base-T
card (e.g., due to a change in the active multicast address list), the
driver’s DVR module encountered an error while trying to allocate a
buffer from the driver’s read buffer pool (“Cause” = 32-bit status
returned by the call to bmgr_get_buffer).
ACTION: The driver logs this error, then attempts to continue. However,
the problem could indicate some serious internal problems within the
buffer manager or its data structures, or with the way the system is
