v Communication error to the blade or user doesn't have permission for OFM on a blade. v HBA firmware needs to be upgraded to support OFM. Parsing errors This table contains a list of the parsing errors that can be generated when processing the OFM configuration file, with an explanation of the cause of each error. Table 11. Parsing errors Error message Description Assuming boot type `None` Assuming mode `Ignore` The "Boot Type" field has been left empty - the system will assume a value of "none" and continue processing the line. The "Mode" field has been left empty - the system will assume a value of "Ignore" and continue processing. Attempt to add multiple boot targets to a blade with the same priority A single priority value for a target can only be used once for a given slot. Attempt to redefine slot There are multiple lines defining a slot. A slot must be defined before it is used and cannot be defined more than once. Attempt to use a slot that has not yet been defined A slot must be defined before it used. The OFM configuration file contains a reference to a slot that has not been defined when referenced. Attempt to write non-Ethernet data to Ethernet port The OFM configuration file includes an attempt to define a non-Ethernet port to an Ethernet-only port number (1 or 2). Bad boot type The "Boot type" string cannot be parsed. Bad entry type The entry type (One of: BladeCenter, Slot, Eth, FC, FCTarget) was not recognized. Bad IP address The IP address was incorrectly formed or, in the case of a hostname, the DNS lookup failed. Bad offset number Cannot parse the offset number, or the number is out of range. (Offsets must be in the range 0-3) Bad port number Cannot parse the port number, or the number is out of range. (Ports must be in the range 1-8 for Ethernet ports or 3-8 for all other types) Bad slot number Cannot correctly parse the slot number or it is out of range. The exact range depends on the BladeCenter type (BCH, BCS, BCHT), but is never less than 1 or more than 14. This error can also occur when the slot field does not have a closing comma. Bad target priority - must be first or second Cannot parse the target priority, or it was out of range (first/second). Targets can only be set as the first or second priority. Chapter 6.

Error
message
Description
Assuming
boot
type
`None`
The
“Boot
Type”
field
has
been
left
empty
the
system
will
assume
a
value
of
“none”
and
continue
processing
the
line.
Assuming

field
has
been
left
empty
the
system
will
assume
a
value
of

priority
A

priority
value
for
a
target
can
only
be
used
once
for
a
given
slot.
Attempt
to
redefine
slot
There
are
multiple
lines
defining
a
slot.
A
slot
must
be
defined
before
it
is
used
and
cannot
be
defined
more
than
once.
Attempt
to
use
a
slot
that
has
not
yet
been
defined
A
slot
must
be
defined
before
it
used.
The

configuration
file
contains
a
reference
to

that
has
not

defined
when
referenced.
Attempt

The
OFM
configuration
file
includes

number
(1
or

Bad
boot
type
The
“Boot

string
cannot
be
parsed.
Bad
entry
type
The
entry
type
(One
of:
BladeCenter,
Slot,
Eth,
FC,
FCTarget)
was
not
recognized.
Bad

address
was
incorrectly
formed
or,
in

Bad
slot
number
Cannot
correctly
parse
the
slot
number
or
it
is
out

The
exact
range
depends
on
the
BladeCenter
type
(BCH,
BCS,
