Open System Services Programmer's Guide

• While attempting to start the OSS SEEP with the configured process name, if there is already
a process running with the same name, the OSS name server stops the process and starts the
OSS SEEP with that name.
• There is an error sending an authorization request to the OSS SEEP. The EMS event reports
a communication error with the OSS SEEP.
After the EMS event is generated for an OSS SEEP's failure to start, the same EMS event is not
generated for a predefined hold-off period of 2 minutes.
NOTE: The SCF STATUS SERVER command can also be used to view the OSS SEEP's current
state and the most recent error encountered by the OSS name server during the OSS SEEP's creation
and communication.
