Guardian Procedure Errors and Messages Manual
Recovery Correct the call to SEGMENT_ALLOCATE_ so that the options are correct and in the
proper order.
3 BOUNDS VIOLATION
Cause A bounds violation occurred on a reference parameter. The reference parameter address
is checked for length and location. The error-detail parameter contains the ordinal number of the
first (leftmost) parameter encountered whose option is in error.
Effect The procedure sets the error code and returns without any further action.
Recovery Pass a correct reference address to SEGMENT_ALLOCATE_.
4 ILLEGAL SEGMENT ID
Cause The SEGMENT_ALLOCATE_ call either specified an invalid segment ID (not in the range 0
through 1023) or used the segment ID of a currently allocated segment.
Effect The procedure sets the error code and returns without allocating the extended data segment.
Recovery Specify a valid segment ID, then retry the operation. User processes can specify a segment
ID equal to 1023 or less; only processes supplied by HP can specify a segment ID greater than
1023.
5 ILLEGAL SEGMENT SIZE
Cause The SEGMENT_ALLOCATE_ call specified an invalid segment size.
Effect The procedure sets the error code and returns without allocating the extended data segment.
Recovery Specify a valid segment size, then retry the operation. Valid values for segment-size
depend on the type of segment to be allocated:
• For a flat segment, segment-size must be in the range of 1 byte to 128 megabytes.
• For a selectable segment, segment-size must be in the range of 1 byte to 127.5 megabytes.
6 UNABLE TO ALLOCATE SEGMENT SPACE
Cause SEGMENT_ALLOCATE_ did not allocate segment space because not enough contiguous
memory was available.
Effect The procedure sets the error code and returns without allocating the extended data segment.
Recovery Retry the operation, or run the application on another processor.
7 UNABLE TO ALLOCATE SEGMENT PAGE TABLE SPACE
Cause SEGMENT_ALLOCATE_ did not allocate any segment page table space. The segment page
table stores one entry for each page allocated in the segment that it is related to.
Effect The procedure sets the error code and returns without allocating the extended data segment.
Recovery Retry the operation, or run the application on another processor.
8 SECURITY VIOLATION
Cause A security violation occurred when the process tried to share segment space using
SEGMENT_ALLOCATE_. This error indicates that the segment space was not shared.
