UNIX messages
This section provides descriptions of the Ethernet error mes-
sages for the SCO UNIX LLI driver, and suggested actions
to resolve each problem.
PermaNet
Server:
Problem Occurs on the Primary
Adapter.
Switching over to the
Secondary Adapter.
Explanation:
The system detected a
problem with the primary Ethernet
connection and has transferred all network
traffic to the secondary Ethernet controller.
Action:
identify the cause of the failure on
the primary Ethernet connection.
Restoring the operational state of the
primary connection will cause the network
traffic to automatically transfer to the
primary Ethernet controller.
PermaNet
Server:
Switching back to Primary Adapter.
Explanation:
The primary Ethernet
connection is now operating correctly.
Network traffic will automatically transfer
to the primary Ethernet controller.
Action:
None needed, message is for
information only.
Table 6. UNIX LLI driver messages for the Ethernet
controller
pnt0-2
PCI search specified, PCI device not found!
Explanation:
The driver cannot locate the
Ethernet controller on the PCI bus.
Action:
Run the NETCONFIG program to search
for another Ethernet controller
Verify that the Ethernet controller is
enabled.
If the Ethernet controller is
enabled, run the diagnostic programs.
