Error Detection and Reporting
Internal Box Error (IBE) Reporting
The internal box errors generate box event records (BERs). For details on BERs,
see chapter 11.
The IBEs can be divided into three categories:
1. CSP and EAC internal errors or events (similar to the errors defined for the
CSP/FES in the LSS):
Adapter interconnection check
CSP/EAC interconnection error
EAC failing to answer
Transmitter error
Invalid interrupt from EAC
Command rejected
Trace already active
EAC internal error
EAC hardware not ready
AIO error
Frame greater than 1518 bytes
Collision error
EAC receiver lost part or all of a packet
Internal EAC transmit buffers not free
2. DMA errors detected by the EAC:
DMA parity error during write or read
DMA time out during write or read
DMA bus driver fault
DMA burst count error
DMA interconnection errors for improper DMA tag sequence.
3. Errors detected in the SCTL/switch cards:
Storage internal error
SCTL internal error
DMA internal error
DMA logical error
DMA storage protect/address exception
DMA interconnection error in read or write
(a)
DMSW parity check main bus
(b)
DMSW parity check primary/secondary bus
(c)
DMSW driver fault.
(d)
Notes:
1. The following errors can occur concurrently:
a and b
b and c
b and d
a, b, and c
2. All the errors listed above are reported to the NCP via a level 2 interrupt and
associated status area as an LCS and ELCS code (refer to “Line Communi-
cation Status (LCS)” on page 12-30, “Extended Line Communication Status
(ELCS) For LCS X'D2'” on page 12-32, and “Extended Line Communication
Status (ELCS) For LCS X'DC'” on page 12-33 for codes description).
