RDF System Management Manual for H-Series RVUs (RDF 1.8)

Cause The monitor encountered an error while attempting to create an RDF process. The
error fields reported in the message are the upper and lower bytes of the status returned by
the NEWPROCESS system procedure followed by the filename of the program that was to be
run.
Effect The process is not started, and RDF shuts down.
Recovery See the description of the NEWPROCESS procedure in the Guardian Procedure
Errors and Messages Manual to determine the cause of the failure. Once the underlying cause
is corrected, RDF can be restarted.
713
Backup process creation error nnn nnn, file filename
nnn nnn
are the upper and lower bytes, respectively, of the status code reported by the
NEWPROCESS procedure.
filename
is the name of the program file that was to be executed.
Cause The primary process of an RDF NonStop process pair encountered an error while
attempting to create its backup process. The error fields reported in the message are the upper
and lower bytes of the status returned by the NEWPROCESS system procedure followed by
the filename of the program that was to be run.
This error will occur if one or more parameters in the configuration file are incorrect, if the
required processor is not running, or if there are insufficient resources.
Effect The backup process is not started. The primary continues to run, but will be vulnerable
to a CPU failure. The primary will try to create its backup repeatedly until it succeeds.
Recovery See the description of the NEWPROCESS procedure in the Guardian Procedure
Errors and Messages Manual to determine the cause of the failure. Once the underlying cause
is corrected, the backup process can be created.
714
CHECKPOINT Failure - backup comm error error
error
is the file-system error number that identifies the specific error.
Cause A call to the checkpoint procedure failed, and the backup process of a NonStop
process pair is still running. The message includes the number of the file-system error that
was encountered when the primary process was trying to communicate with the backup
process.
Effect The backup process is stopped, and a new one is created after about 15 seconds.
Recovery See the description of the CHECKPOINT procedure in the Guardian Procedure
Calls Reference Manual to determine the cause of the failure. If possible, correct the underlying
cause to avoid its reoccurrence.
715
Primary stopped
Cause The primary process of a NonStop process pair has stopped. This probably was the
result of an operator inadvertently issuing a STOP command from TACL.
Effect The backup process takes over, but not in fault-tolerant mode, until the primary
process can be re-created.
Recovery This is an informational message; no recovery is required.
716
Primary abended
Cause The primary process of a NonStop process pair has abended.
