RPC Event Messages
DSM/Tape Catalog Management Programming Manual—520481-003
B-16
8 ZRPC-EVT-BKUP-FAIL
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 communication has
not been reestablished after the configurable period of time, the portmapper process
abends.
Recovery. Recovery depends on the cause of the error:
•
If the portmapper process could not communicate with its backup process, and the
connection was lost due to a processor failure, reload the failed processor. When
the portmapper process detects that the processor has been reloaded, it
automatically attempts to restart its backup process.
•
If the portmapper process could not communicate with the NonStop Kernel TCP/IP
process, restart or reestablish communication with the NonStop Kernel TCP/IP
process.
•
If the connection was lost due to a network connection failure, restore the network
connection to an operational state.
8 ZRPC-EVT-BKUP-FAIL
The backup portmapper process terminated, resulting in a loss of fault tolerance.
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-BKUP-
FAIL (8).
ZEMS-TKN-SUBJECT-MARK
is the standard EMS token that always immediately precedes the subject token; in
this case, ZCOM-TKN-SUBJ-PROC.
