Ethernet Controller Messages
PCNTNW-NW-074 The hardware interrupt cannot be set.
Explanation: An attempt was made to initialize a given hardware interrupt. The attempt was not
successful.
Action: Verify that the PCI Ethernet device type is set to the default (enabled) position in the
Configuration/Setup utility programs (see “PCI Bus Control” on page 29).
Make sure that the interrupt request numbers are set correctly. If you are using an ISA adapter, make
sure resources are reserved as ISA Legacy in the Configuration/Setup utility programs (see “Plug and
Play” on page 30.)
PCNTNW-NW-075 The Multiple Link Interface Driver (MLID) cannot be registered with the Link
Support Layer (LSL).
Explanation: An error occurred while the driver was trying to register with the LSL.
Action: Check the version of the NetWare or IntraNetWare Operating System. Make sure that this
driver is correct for the version of NetWare or IntraNetWare that you are using. Restart the server.
PCNTNW-NW-079 The Multiple Link Interface Driver (MLID) did not initialize MSMTx Free Count.
Explanation: The MSMTx Free Count is not initialized correctly.
Action: Restart the server. If the problem persists, have the system serviced.
PCNTNW-NW-086 The driver parameter block is too small.
Explanation: The driver parameter block is too small.
Action: Restart the server. If the problem persists, have the system serviced.
PCNTNW-NW-087 The media parameter block is too small.
Explanation: The driver media parameter block is too small.
Action: Restart the server. If the problem persists, have the system serviced.
PCNTNW-NW-091 The hardware configuration conflicts.
Explanation: You tried to load a new frame type for the existing controller. The hardware assumptions
made in doing so are incorrect. This error can also occur if you try to specify a mode (such as,
redundancy) that conflicts with another specified mode.
Action: Make sure that your hardware configuration matches the software settings. See “PCI Bus
Control” on page 29 for information on viewing and changing interrupt requests.
PCNTNW-NW-126 The group bit in the node address override was cleared.
Explanation: The IEEE address has a group bit indicating that an address belongs to a group of
stations. This bit is used only as a destination address; it cannot be used as a source address. You
tried to enter a source address with this bit set. The driver cleared the group bit of the source address.
Action: None necessary, message is for information only.
PCNTNW-NW-127 The local bit in the node address override was set.
Explanation: The local bit in the IEEE address format indicates that the addresses are being managed
locally. If you use the node address override capabilities of this driver to enter a new address, the local
bit must be set. You entered an address without the local bit set. The driver has set the local bit.
Action: None necessary, message is for information only.
PCNTNW-NW-164 The device was not found.
Explanation: The driver cannot find an Ethernet controller in the server.
Action: Verify that the PCI Ethernet device type is set to the default (enabled) position in the
Configuration/Setup utility programs (see “PCI Bus Control” on page 29). If the Ethernet adapter is
enabled, go to “Diagnostic Test Programs” on page 111 to run the diagnostic utility.
