Guardian Procedure Errors and Messages Manual
Cause
• A process attempted to create a file with attributes that exceed the maximum size of a file
label.
• A process called a non-file creation API with a filename, such as FILE_OPEN_, and the disk
process does not recognize the contents of that file’s file label.
Typical causes for file creation APIs are:
• Files with up to 16 partitions: too many alternate key files, alternate keys, extents, or secondary
partitions specified, or secondary partitions with long partition partial keys specified.
• Files with more than 16 partitions: too many alternate key files, alternate keys, or extents
specified.
Typical causes for non-file creation APIs are:
• Disk process does not recognize the contents of the file's file label.
Effect The procedure sets the error code and returns without performing the requested operation.
Recovery
For the file creation APIs, this is a limit error.
• For files with up to 16 partitions, reduce the number of alternate key files, alternate keys,
extents, or secondary partitions specified, or reduce the length of the partition partial keys.
• For files with more than 16 partitions, reduce the number of alternate key files, alternate keys,
or extents.
For the non-file creation APIs, the file cannot be accessed using the disk process. Recover, replace,
or purge the file. If you need HP assistance, contact the Global NonStop Support Center (GNSC).
1091 (%2103) The file or table cannot be purged
until the NOPURGEUNTIL date.
Cause An attempt was made to purge a file for which the specified expiration date has not been
reached. The expiration date is set by using item code 57 of the FILE_CREATELIST_ procedure or
by using the NOPURGEUNTIL option of the FUP ALTER command.
Effect On a purge operation, if the NOPURGEUNTIL option is specified, the expiration date (a
four-word GMT timestamp) is checked against the current time. If the timestamp is less than the
current time, the file is not purged. All Enscribe files existing before C10 are assumed to have a
zero expiration date.
Recovery The expiration date of a file can be set or changed with a call to the C-series ALTER
procedure or a call to the D-series FILE_ALTERLIST_ procedure.
1092 (%2104) The File Label will overflow (FELABTOOLONG).
Cause The operation causes the file label to overflow.
Effect The operation fails.
Recovery Recreate the file with larger primary and secondary extents. This results in a smaller file
label.
The following command lists the attributes of a file (including the file label size):
fup info <filename>, detail
Use the following command to recreate the file with a larger primary and secondary extent:
fup dup <filename>, <new-filename>, ext (pri-ext-size, sec-ext-size)
1163 (%2213) Illegal operation attempted on a file having a system reserved filename.
