OpenVMS Version 7.1 New Features Manual

This message is only a warning. SDA continues unless the mismatch causes an unrecoverable error.
User Action: Be sure to use the SDA$SHARE image that was built for the OpenVMS version used in the system or dump you are analyzing.

SHORTDUMP, dump file was 'number' blocks too small when dump written; analysis may not be possible

Facility: SDA, System Dump Analyzer
Explanation: On OpenVMS Alpha systems, this message indicates that the system dump file is not large enough to accommodate either of the following:

All physical memory (in the case of a full dump)
Page table space, system space (S0/S1/S2), and the current process (in the case of a selective dump)

To complete the dump, you need additional blocks, as specified by 'number' in the message.
User Action: Refer to the OpenVMS System Manager's Manual for information about changing the size of the system dump file.

SHORTERLDUMP, error log dump file too small for error log buffers

Facility: SDA, System Dump Analyzer
Explanation: The file SYS$SYSTEM:SYS$ERRLOG.DMP is too small to hold all the error log buffers in the system.
User Action: Use AUTOGEN to ensure the file is sized correctly for your system.

SNDEXTAUTH, sending password request to external authenticator

Facility: SET, SET PASSWORD Command
Explanation: The SET PASSWORD command is being sent to the external authenticator.
User Action: None.

SUCCESS, process dump priority successfully set

Facility: SDP, Set Dump Priority Utility
Explanation: The Set Dump Priority utility successfully defined a list of processes.
User Action: None.

SYNPWDSYNCH, password could not be synchronized; illegal password syntax

Facility: SET, SET PASSWORD Command
Explanation: A password maintained by an external authenticator cannot be set in the UAF because the password syntax is illegal. The password is sent to the external authenticator, but no attempt is made to synchronize the password in the UAF.
User Action: None.

TERMINAL, physical device specified must be a terminal device

Facility: PPPD, Point-to-Point Protocol Utility
Explanation: The specified physical device is not a terminal device.
User Action: Specify a physical device that is a terminal device.

TERMSETUP, error with terminal setup

Facility: PPPD, Point-to-Point Protocol Utility
Explanation: PPPD cannot configure the host terminal for the reason given in the accompanying message.
User Action: Take action based on the accompanying message.

TERMUNSUPP, point-to-point connections on 'device-name' are not supported

Facility: PPPD, Point-to-Point Protocol Utility
Explanation: The device to which you tried to establish a Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) connection is not supported by PPPD.
User Action: Check the TCP/IP Networking on OpenVMS Systems manual to see a list of the current device restrictions for PPPD. Reenter a valid device name.

TIMERSETUP, error setting up wait

Facility: PPPD, Point-to-Point Protocol Utility
Explanation: PPPD cannot set the wait state for the reason given in the accompanying message.
User Action: Take action based on the accompanying message.

TOOMANYERLBUF, number of error log buffers exceeds maximum for system parameter ERRORLOGBUFFERS

Facility: SDA, System Dump Analyzer
Explanation: There are too many error log buffers in the dump for SDA to read. In override mode, attempts to extract the error log buffers may fail. In normal operation, SDA attempts to read all the error log buffers and fails only if it is unable to allocate sufficient memory for them.
User Action: None.

TOOMANYPIPCMD, too many pipe segment commands specified

Facility: CLI, Command Language Interpreter (DCL)
Explanation: The number of pipe segment commands caused DCL to overflow its internal buffers.
User Action: Break the pipeline up into several shorter pipelines and execute them in separate PIPE commands.

TOOMUCH, 'product' cannot be loaded; too much information

Facility: LICENSE, License Management Utility
Explanation: You tried to load a license with more data than LMF can handle.
User Action: Disable the PAKs for old versions, old releases, and old termination dates that you no longer use. Remove excess and duplicate names from the license reserve list. Try again to load the license.

TRYPWDSYNCH, attempting password synchronization

Facility: SET, SET PASSWORD Command
Explanation: The external authenticator successfully performed the password operation and is now attempting to modify the password on the user's UAF record.
User Action: None.

UNTERMSUBSH, subshell syntax not delimited with matching parentheses; add missing parenthesis

Facility: CLI, Command Language Interpreter (DCL)
Explanation: A parenthesis is missing from a subshell syntax in a PIPE command.
User Action: Ensure that each subshell is enclosed by left and right parentheses.

VA_NOTPAGALGN, specified virtual address is not page aligned

Facility: SYSTEM, System Services
Explanation: The specified virtual address is not a CPU-specific page aligned address. Or, if the specified virtual address is within a shared page table region, the specified virtual address is not CPU-specific page table page aligned.
User Action: Ensure that the virtual address passed to the system service is a CPU-specific page aligned address. Or, if the specified virtual address is within a shared page table region, ensure that the virtual address is a CPU-specific page table page aligned address.

VAXDUMP, dump file FLAGS2 DMP$V_VAXDUMP should be set

Facility: SDA, System Dump Analyzer
Explanation: The dump file you are trying to analyze does not have the FLAGS2 DMP$V_VAXDUMP bit set in the dump file header. Either the dump file was created on an OpenVMS VAX system prior to Version 7.1, or another event caused the FLAGS2 DMP$V_VAXDUMP bit to be cleared.
User Action: None. The OpenVMS VAX System Dump Analyzer will continue to access this dump file.

WRGSUBSHSYN, empty subshell or subshell is not separated from other command sequences by proper separators

Facility: CLI, Command Language Interpreter (DCL)
Explanation: An offending subshell syntax is embedded in a PIPE command. Either there is a null subshell or a subshell command sequence lacks the separators necessary to distinguish it from other command sequences.
User Action: Remove or correct the offending subshell syntax.

WRITEERR, error writing to 'device-name'

Facility: PPPD, Point-to-Point Protocol Utility
Explanation: During a write operation on the specified device, an error occurred for the reason described in an accompanying message.
User Action: Take action based on the accompanying message.
