RDF System Management Manual for J-series and H-series RVUs (RDF Update 13)
Cause
RDFCOM could not resolve an ambiguous timestamp after a change to Local Civil Time (LCT)
when the LCT was changed relative to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). In this situation, two LCTs
map to the same GMT and it is impossible to determine the correct intended time.
This problem typically occurs in Autumn, when the clock is set back from Daylight Savings Time.
If you specify an RDF initialization timestamp between 1:00AM and 2:00AM on that day, the
intended time is ambiguous. Did you mean before the clock was turned back or after? To eliminate
this ambiguity, a specified RDF initialization timestamp in this one-hour interval is reported as
an error.
Effect
Initialization is aborted.
Recovery
Reinitialize RDF specifying a timestamp that is earlier than the ambiguous time.
A partial RDF TAKEOVER has completed
Cause
You issued a STATUS RDF command after a TAKEOVER command has completed, but one or
more updater processes had terminated prematurely and was therefore unable to process all
applicable image audit data.
Effect
The primary and backup databases are inconsistent.
Recovery
To determine which updaters terminated prematurely, examine the EMS event log for error
number 726. Then, reissue the TAKEOVER command.
A required attribute for network master is missing
Cause
You must specify the PrimarySystem, BackupSystem, RemoteControlSubvolume, and PnetTxVolume
attributes for each Network record in the configuration of your network master, but you are
missing one or more or more of these network attributes.
Effect
The configuration command fails.
Recovery
Set the missing fields and add the record.
A required attribute for a non network master is missing
Cause
You must specify the PrimarySystem, BackupSystem, and RemoteControlSubvolume for the network
master of your RDF network.
Effect
The configuration command fails.
Recovery
Set the missing fields and add the record.
A TAKEOVER operation has not completed on the local system
Cause
You tried to execute the COPYAUDIT command, but the RDF TAKEOVER operation has not
completed on the local system.
Effect
The COPYAUDIT command is aborted.
