This appendix lists and describes system error messages for the LightStream 1010 Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) switch. The system software sends these error messages to the console (and, optionally, to a logging server on another system) during operation. Not all system error messages indicate problems with your system. Some are purely informational, while others may help diagnose problems with communications lines, internal hardware, or the system software.
Note An alphabetical listing of the error codes appears at the end of this chapter. The index of system error messages is alphabetized by facility-severity-mnemonic.
How This Guide Is Organized
The system error message main section provides descriptions of error messages organized according to the particular system facility that produces the messages. The facilities sections appear in alphabetical order, and within each system facility section, messages are listed alphabetically by mnemonic. Each error message is followed by an explanation and a recommended action. System error messages appear only when the system remains operational.
Error message severity levels correspond to the keywords assigned by the logging global configuration commands that define where and at what level these messages appear. The default is to log messages to the console at the debugging level (7).
How to Read System Error Messages
System error messages begin with a percent sign and are structured as follows:
%FACILITY-SEVERITY-MNEMONIC: Message-text
FACILITY is a code consisting of two or more uppercase letters that indicate the facility to which the message refers. A facility can be a hardware device, a protocol, or a module of the system software. Table A-1 lists the system facilities codes.

SEVERITY
is a single-digit code from 0 to 7 that reflects the severity of the condition. The lower the number, the more serious the situation. Table A-2 lists the severity levels.

| 0 -- emergency
|
System unusable
|
| 1 -- alert
|
Immediate action needed
|

MNEMONIC
is a code that uniquely identifies the error message.
Message-text
is a text string describing the condition. This portion of the message sometimes contains detailed information about the event, including terminal port numbers, network addresses, or addresses that correspond to locations in the system memory address space. Because the information in these variable fields changes from message to message, it is represented here by short strings enclosed in square brackets (
[ ]
). A decimal number, for example, is represented as
[dec]
. Table A-3 lists the representations of variable fields and the type of information in them.
The following is a sample system error message:
%SONICT-3-XMIT_ERR: TX Error [hex]
Table A-3 : Representation of Variable Fields in Error Messages
| [dec]
|

|
| [hex]
|
Hexadecimal number
|
| [char]
|
Single character
|

|

|
| [v-name]
|
VINES name; or number (hex or decimal)

Error Message Traceback Reports
Some messages describe internal errors and contain traceback information. This information is very important and should be included when you report a problem to your technical support representative.
The following sample message includes traceback information:
-Process= "Exec", level= 0, pid= 17
-Traceback= 1A82 1AB4 6378 A072 1054 1860
