Ethernet controller messages The integrated Ethernet controller might display messages from certain device drivers. The information in this section might be helpful. The latest information available concerning these messages will be made available at the IBM Support Web site at http://www.ibm.com/pc/support. Note: Although the term ″adapter″ is used in these messages, the messages might also apply to the integrated Ethernet controller on the system board. Novell NetWare or IntraNetWare system ODI driver messages This section explains the error messages for the Novell NetWare or IntraNetWare system ODI driver, and suggested actions to resolve each problem. Table 4. NetWare or IntraNetWare system ODI driver teaming messages for the Ethernet controller Message Description Could not allocate resources. Explanation: An unknown error has occurred when trying to allocate needed resources for the AFT Module. AFT group for primary adapter in slot nnn already exists. Action: v Check the system configuration. If the problem remains, contact the network supplier. v Verify that the Ethernet controller is enabled. If the Ethernet controller is enabled, run the diagnostic programs. Explanation: An attempt was made to rebind an adapter already in an AFT group. Action: Check the AFT slot numbers for existing AFT teams. If the problem remains, contact the network supplier. Error locating device control table (DCT) addresses in internal table. Make sure that you have loaded LAN drivers after loading AFT.NLM. Explanation: The bind command was entered prior to loading the device driver. The device driver must be loaded after loading AFT.NLM, but before any bind command can be issued. Action: Load the driver for the supported adapter and try loading the AFT module again. If the problem remains, contact the network supplier. Insufficient number of arguments specified. Explanation: The appropriate or expected number of parameters was not entered in a command. Duplicate slot numbers detected. Action: Check the parameters required for the given command. If the problem remains, contact the network supplier. Explanation: An attempt has been made to bind the same slot number more than once. 'xxx' is not supported for AFT team. Action: Check the slot numbers entered during the bind. Adapter slot numbers must be valid and unique. If the problem remains, contact the network supplier. Explanation: A bind command has been issued for adapters not supported by AFT.NLM. Primary and Secondary adapters do not match. AFT group is not created. Action: Make sure that you attempt to bind only adapters supported by AFT.NLM. Explanation: A bind command was entered for an adapter team that is a combination of system and client adapters. An AFT team must be a grouping of the same classification of adapter. Action: Verify that all the adapters bound in a team are of the same classification. Chapter 3. Diagnostics 31
