5 ZRPC-EVT-RPC-ERR
•
Values in the range 0 through 255 indicate a file-system error. File-system errors 
are defined in the ZFILDDL source file. 
Effect. A connection or a datagram might have been lost. If the NonStop Kernel 
TCP/IP process was inaccessible (file-system error 201 or 250), the portmapper 
process records the event, closes all open sockets, and then periodically tries to 
reestablish communications with the NonStop Kernel TCP/IP process for a 
configurable period of time.
If communications are reestablished, the portmapper process reopens its sockets and 
proceeds as usual. If communications have not been reestablished after the 
configurable period of time, the portmapper process abends. All other errors are 
considered fatal and cause the portmapper process to log the event and abend.
Recovery. Operator intervention is required to restart the process. For descriptions of 
the NonStop Kernel TCP/IP socket errors, see the TCP/IP Management Programming 
Manual. For descriptions of file-system errors, see the Operator Messages Manual.
5 ZRPC-EVT-RPC-ERR
A procedure in the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) library failed or returned an error. 
ZCOM-TKN-OBJTYPE
indicates which type of process reported the event. The only possible value for the 
RPC subsystem is ZCOM-OBJ-PROC, the portmapper process.
ZEMS-TKN-EVENTNUMBER
is a header token that contains the event number. Its value is ZRPC-EVT-RPC-
ERR (5).
ZEMS-TKN-SUBJECT-MARK
is the standard EMS token that always immediately precedes the subject token; in 
this case, ZCOM-TKN-SUBJ-PROC.
