PCI 100Base-T Error Messages
SDI Driver Specific Status Values
5710 CLAS0001 MESSAGE: Cannot send a port message.
CAUSE: During ISR processing, an attempt by the ISR to send a reply to
a previously received message failed (“Cause” = 32-bit status returned
by the call to send_msg).
ACTION: This error is likely an indication of a more serious system
software problem, and may be followed by a system abort. Probably all
message frames have been exhausted by some module running on the
system. Further recovery actions may not be possible; if the system
fails, take a memory dump and reboot.
If the link hangs and a system abort does not occur, try using VGPBA to
attempt a manual reset, or try stopping and restarting all networks
using the link driver.
5740 CLAS0001 MESSAGE: Driver encountered a hardware problem.
CAUSE: The ISR attempted to terminate transmit processing on the PCI
100Base-T card (e.g., in response to a reset or shutdown request, in
order to change active characteristics on the link, etc.), but did not
receive the expected acknowledgment from the card indicating the
request was received and processed.
ACTION: The driver may become unusable or attempt an auto-reset. If
the driver appears to hang, try to shutdown the network manually and
then restart it. Most likely, once the reset is complete and the driver has
“reinitialized” the hardware (card), the driver can resume operating
normally.
If the problem persists, it could indicate a bad PCI 100Base-T card. A
new adapter card may be needed.

5800 CLAS0001 MESSAGE: Driver has detected data corruption.
CAUSE: While starting up, the ISR was unable to allocate a transmit
descriptor in order to send an initial setup frame to the PCI 100Base-T
card. This indicates a corruption of the driver’s data structures, since
