FTAM Initiator Error Codes
standard procedures at your site for contacting the appropriate support personnel. 
These procedures might involve contacting your local HP support analyst.
-6018
Cause. The application is using a version of the FTM procedure module that is 
incompatible with the maximum field version of the FTAM initiator process.
Subcodes. None.
Effect. The program cannot run.
Recovery. This is an internal error and is unlikely to occur. If it does occur, install the 
current FTAM software version, rerun the program using the current software, and retry 
the operation in progress when this error occurred. If the problem persists, follow the 
standard procedures at your site for contacting the appropriate support personnel. 
These procedures might involve contacting your local HP support analyst.
-6019
Cause. The FTAM initiator detected an error while attempting to establish an 
association via an APS procedure call or while interacting with the underlying OSI 
layers after association establishment.
If an FTM_INITIALIZE_REQ_ procedure returned this error, an improperly configured 
FTAM initiator, OSIMGR, or TAPS process could have caused it. For example, the OSI 
manager name, local/remote application address, or common name might be incorrect.
If a procedure other than FTM_INITIALIZE_REQ_ returned the error, it might indicate 
that the TAPS process has failed, that the association was aborted, or that a 
file-system error was detected.
The initiator can also return this error when the remote system is not running.
Subcodes. None.
Effect. If an association exists, the initiator generates a provider abort.
Recovery. If an association existed, obtain the abort indication and call 
APS_DISCARD_ to release the FTAM API context allocated for this CEPI. This might 
be a transient condition, so establish another association and retry the operation. The 
original-error-info parameter returned from APS_STATUS_ contains more 
information about the problem detected by the APS procedures, OSIMGR process, or 
the TAPS process. For information on the original-error-info error code and 
subcode values, refer to the OSI/AS Programming Manual. For help in verifying the
