[EINTR] A signal was caught during execution of the function call.

[EINVAL] The access_mode parameter contains an invalid bit pattern.

[EIO] An I/O error occurred during a read from or a write to the ﬁleset.

[ELOOP] Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating the pathname.

[ENAMETOOLONG]

One of the following is too long:

• The pathname pointed to by the path parameter

• A component of the pathname pointed to by the path parameter

• The intermediate result of pathname resolution when a symbolic link is

part of the path parameter

The pathconf( ) function can be called to obtain the applicable limits.

[ENOENT] One of the following conditions exists:

• The speciﬁed pathname does not exist.

• The speciﬁed pathname is an empty string.

• The speciﬁed pathname cannot be mapped to a valid Guardian ﬁlename.

• The path parameter speciﬁes a ﬁle on a remote HP NonStop node but

communication with the remote node has been lost.

[ENOROOT] One of the following conditions exists:

• The root ﬁleset of the local node (ﬁleset 0) is not in the STARTED state.

• The current root ﬁleset for the speciﬁed ﬁle is unavailable. The OSS

name server for the ﬁleset might have failed.

• The speciﬁed ﬁle is on a remote HP NonStop node and communication

with the remote name server has been lost.

[ENOTDIR] A component of the pathname preﬁx is not a directory.

[ENOTSUP] The path parameter speciﬁes a Guardian ﬁle on an SMF logical volume and one

of the following conditions exists:

• The local system is running an RVU prior to J06.15 or H06.26.

• The path parameter speciﬁes a ﬁle in /E and the remote system is run-

ning an RVU prior to J06.15 or H06.26.

[ENXIO] The ﬁleset containing the current working directory or the root ﬁleset is not

mounted.

[EOSSNOTRUNNING]

The program attempted an operation on an object in the OSS environment while

a required system process was not running.

[EPERM] The program attempted an operation on a SEEP-protected ﬁleset. Valid for

J06.15 and later J-series RVUs, and H06.26 and later H-series RVUs.
