RDF Messages
Cause. An updater restart is performed under a variety of circumstances, such as a 
failure in the primary CPU of the updater, a failure in the primary CPU of the 
corresponding disk process, or various file errors. The reason for the updater restart 
can be determined from previous messages. During an updater restart, file-system 
errors 10, 11, and 71 are not reported by the updater because they probably represent 
database operations that have already been performed.
Effect. The updater restarts and continues processing.
Recovery. Perform any corrective actions suggested by the preceding messages in 
the RDF message log (actions such as reloading the appropriate CPU, or correcting 
the underlying file error condition).
838
Cause. The RDFNET process has terminated unexpectedly. 
Effect. This message is issued by the RDF monitor. The monitor sends an abort 
message to all remaining RDF processes to stop RDF.
Recovery. Determine the reason why the RDFNET process stopped, correct the 
problem, and then restart RDF. If the problem persists, contact your service provider.
839 
filename
is the name of the audit trail file that could not be found.
Cause. The extractor was unable to find the designated audit trail file. Usually this 
occurs because TMF purged the audit trail file while RDF was stopped. When RDF is 
running, it prevents TMF from purging audit trail files until the extractor has read them, 
even if the extractor is running far behind TMF (the extractor has a large RTD value) 
and TMF has performed several rollovers. Use the STATUS RDF command to display 
the extractor’s current RTD value.
Effect. The extractor tries to open the audit trail file indefinitely unless an irrecoverable 
error occurs on the file.
Recovery. Restore the audit trail file from tape by using SNOOP RESTOREAUDIT.
If copies of the audit trail have not been maintained, you will have to reinitialize RDF 
and resynchronize the primary and backup databases.
