New Error Messages for PCI Error Handling
When the PCI Error Handling feature is installed, new error messages are included for each of
the drivers that support PCI Error Handling.
— Error messages for the btlan, igelan, and iether drivers appear in the console log only and
do not get logged in syslog.
— Error messages for the fcd and mpt drivers are logged in syslog and diaglog.
— If an I/O card has multiple ports, error messages may not be reported for all of the ports on
the card if the PCI Error Handling feature suspends the driver before the error is detected on all
of the ports.
