The following includes messages from NWPA.NLM.
NWPA-X-004: The CDM driver deactivated device name due to a device failure.
Source: NWPA.NLM
Explanation: The device specified in name was deactivated by the .cdm driver because the
device failed. The device is probably going bad or has already gone bad.
Action: Try reactivating the device using monitor.nlm. If this does not work, try a
power-on reset. If the reset does not work, contact the manufacturer of the
device or adapter.
NWPA-X-061: Ran out of Below16Meg buffers. Increase the reserve-number specified
in the STARTUP.NCF file.
Source: NWPA.NLM
Explanation: The condition that issues this message is no cause for alarm, and it only
applies to 16-bit host adapters because of their 16 MB addressing limitation.
The message indicates that the server cannot allocate any new memory buffers
below 16 MB for I/O use. All I/O channels are still valid, but I/O performance
will decrease because the server must wait for existing buffers to recycle.
Action: If the maximum has not already been specified, increase the value of the
Reserved Buffers Below 16 Meg parameter in the startup.ncf file.
