NonStop FTAM Initiator Diagnostic

Messages

The NonStop FTAM initiator diagnostic messages are returned on indication and

confirm procedures when the NonStop FTAM initiator detects a problem either locally

or on the remote responder. Because there are so few of these messages, they are not

grouped in the same way that the ISO FTAM diagnostic messages in the previous

appendix are grouped. All the NonStop FTAM initiator diagnostic messages are listed

in numerical order in one table and are followed by detailed explanations of each

message, also arranged in numerical order by the value of the diagnostic message.

For the structures related to diagnostic messages, see ZFTM-DDL-DIAG-ELEM on

page A-27, ZFTM-DDL-DIAGNOSTIC on page A-28, and ZFTM-DDL-ENTITY-REF on

page A-28.

Table D-1 lists the diagnostic messages generated by the NonStop FTAM initiator. All

but message 5037 are returned by the FTM_P_ABORT_IND_ procedure and are

permanent or transient diagnostics. The only informative message is 5037, returned on

open confirm procedures.

Cause. An internal software error has occurred in the initiator. The initiator can return

this diagnostic for a number of reasons. One, for example, is if it encounters problems

related to the value of the maximum-string-length parameter or the incoming-

PDU size.

Effect. The initiator aborts the association.

Recovery. If the Further Details field of this diagnostic contains the message

smaller PDU or larger MSL needed, the size of the encoded data received from
