MPS Error and Informational Messages
Effect. The MPS attempts to continue, unless this warning occurs in connection with
other errors that cause it to ABEND. A database inconsistency might exist in this case.
Recovery. Review the file-system error number, and attempt to determine the reason
for failure. Verify the correct installation and operation of TMF on your NonStop
system.
Cause. This message reports an inconsistency between a request from OSI/MHS and
the MPS's own database information. The specific inconsistency is stated in the
message text.
Effect. The MPS proceeds with normal operation.
Recovery. Stop the MPS concerned and all the APPLs that are served by that MPS.
Use the SCF INFO APPL command to verify the configuration of the APPL(s) in
OSI/MHS. If the configuration is incorrect, correct it using SCF. Then follow the
procedures for adding APPLs to the authorization database from an OSI/MHS
subsystem with APPLs already defined.
Cause. This message reports an inconsistency between a request from OSI/MHS and
the MPS's own database information. The specific inconsistency is stated in the
message text.
Effect. The MPS does not update the authorization database.
Recovery. Stop the MPS concerned and all the APPLs that are served by that MPS.
Use the SCF INFO APPL command to verify the configuration of the APPL(s) in
OSI/MHS. If the configuration is incorrect, correct it using SCF. Then follow the
procedures for adding APPLs to the authorization database from an OSI/MHS
subsystem with APPLs already defined.
Cause. This message reports a possible security threat against the OSI/MHS subsystem
served by the MPS, specifically an attempt by an unauthorized process to open the MPS.
Effect. The MPS does not accept requests from the opener but continues to serve all
other openers normally.
Recovery. Attempt to locate the source of the security threat and remove it. If
necessary, change the code of the MPS to report the process ID of the process that is the
source of the messages.
