Troubleshooting for NetWare
Any error that occurs while the driver is initializing prevents it from loading. If an error does occur, the driver causes the system to beep and then display the following
numbered error message:
xxx message
The xxx indicates the error code and message is a line of text describing the error. The error codes are divided into three categories:
l
000-099 — Non-host-adapter specific
l
100-299 — Host-adapter specific
l
300-999 — Reserved
Specific error codes, such as those in the following subsections, appear only if you have installed the host adapters and drivers that generate them.
Non-Host-Adapter Specific Error Codes
The following error codes alert you to error conditions caused by factors not related to the host adapter:
000 Failed ParseDriverParameters call
A call to NetWare's ParseDriverParameters routine has failed for some unknown reason. The command line contains errors, or you pressed
prompt.
001 Unable to reserve hardware, possible conflict
The driver failed in its attempt to reserve the host adapter's hardware settings (that is, direct memory access [DMA] and interrupt request [IRQ] settings). Another card
in your system may be causing a conflict with the host adapter.
002 NetWare rejected card Failed AddDiskSystem call
The driver failed in its attempt to register the host adapter with NetWare. The file server may not have enough memory.
003 Invalid command line option entered > option
An invalid option was entered on the command line. The invalid option that was entered is also displayed.
004 Invalid command line, please enter correctly
The driver was unable to understand the command line options that you entered. Be sure that you have entered these options correctly.
Host-Adapter Specific Error Codes
The following error codes alert you to error conditions caused by factors related to the host adapter:
200 No host adapter found for this driver to register
No Adaptec 78x x host adapter was found in your system for the driver to register. Be sure that the host adapter is properly configured and properly seated in the slot.
203 Invalid 'device' setting
You have entered an invalid slot setting on the command line. You can only enter slot numbers for valid host adapters. If you load without the slot option, you will be
prompted to enter a valid value.
204 Invalid 'verbose' setting, use 'y'
You can only enter y for this option (verbose=y).
205 Invalid 'removable' setting, use 'off'
You can only enter off for this option (removable=off).
206 Invalid 'fixed_disk' setting, use 'off'
You can only enter off for this option (fixed_disk=off).
208 SCSI present but not enabled/configured for PCI
A host adapter is present, but its bus or device entry has not been enabled.
