Record Type Codes Code Meaning Description ------------------------------------------------------------------ BC Boot completed Bootstrap of the specified device completed. This record type may include explanatory codes AB, FS, OK, or SE. BR Boot requested Bootstrap was requested by the specified device and initiated by the boot server. The data area of this record type contains the name of the bootfile used. CD Connected A connection was established between the specified devices. CF Connection failed An attempt to establish a connection between the specified devices failed. This record type may include explanatory codes BA, BU, DA, IC, NR or UE. DC Disconnected The initiating device disconnected from the destination device. This record type is followed by one of the explanatory codes AD, NR, OK, and UE, and the fields shown below, separated by spaces: * Duration of connection (secs) * Number of bytes received * Number of packets received * Number of bytes transmitted * Number of packets transmitted EE Ethernet errors The specified server reported 100 or more network errors within the hour. Network errors include Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC), alignment, packet-too-short, and packet collision errors. The record is followed by the number of network errors. This record is the same as NE, Network errors. EO Error overflow The error log on a Communications Server overflowed. The record is followed by the number of discarded records. FE Fatal error The specified server (which is either a CS/200 or IVECS) has crashed and requested reboot. A memory dump will be sent automatically to the server's primary NCS/AT. This record type may include an explanatory code. LS Listen The specified device entered Listening mode. NA Network alarm The NCS/AT has reported a network alarm of one of the following types: 0 Retry error, reported after 16 retries. Check for nonterminated cable. 1 Delayed collision. Another server is not performing collision detection. 2 Loss of carrier. Check for shorted cable. 3 Network jammed, cannot transmit. Check for nontermination. Make sure the transceiver or RFM/5 is properly attached. The record includes a count of the number of occurrences of the error since it was last reported. NE Network errors The specified server reported 100 or more network errors within the hour. Network errors include Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC), alignment, packet-too-short, and packet collision errors. The record is followed by the number of network errors. This record is the same as EE, Ethernet errors. NU Network This record is generated once every utilization 10 minutes by the NCS/AT to indicate the network utilization for each of the last 10 minutes as a percentage of the network capacity. To obtain the capacity, multiply the reported value by .1 (e.g., 30 X .1 = 3%). PE Password errors When attempting a SET PRIVilege command, a user entered the local or global network manager password incorrectly 30 or more times on a single server within the hour; followed by the number of incorrect entries. RO Rotary used The initiating device established a connection with a rotary on the destination device; followed by the number of ports available on the rotary and the number of ports in use before the reported connection was established. SD Server dropped The server with the specified network address has been dropped from the netmap, indicating that the NCS/AT has received no packets from that server for at least 72 hours. SE Escessive The specified server reported 100 or SIO errors more SIO errors within the hour. SIO errors depend on the type of servers on the network, and may include asynchronous line parity errors; HDLC or SDLC line CRC, transmit, receive, and DCD errors; and SIO interrupt errors. The record is followed by the number of SIO errors. SI Server inactive Server with the specified network address is listed as inactive in the NCS/AT netmap, indicating that the NCS/AT has received no packets from that server for five or more minutes. UC Upload complete Upload of the specified device has been completed. This record may include explanatory codes AB, FS, ND, OK, RF, or SE. UR Upload request Upload was requested by the specified device and initiated by its primary NCS/AT. This record type may include an explanatory code.
