CPQNF3.LAN C
. .
. .
. .
CPQNF3.LAN has these additional custom statistics.
. .
. .
TLAN Device Revision (X.X)
. .
. .
. .
This statistic will be a two-digit number that represents the version of ThunderLAN that is used
. .
. .
on your controller. For instance, if this value is 23, then that means that the TLAN version in use
. .
is v2.3.
. .
. .
. .
Adapter Check Count
. .
. .
This counts the number of adapter checks that occur and indicates a possible hardware problem.
. .
. .
A console error message that details the problem will be generated. The adapter will be reset and
. .
operation should continue. The Adapter Reset statistic will also increment.
. .
. .
. .
At the next scheduled maintenance, bring down the server and run Compaq Diagnostics to
. .
determine if the board should be replaced.
. .
. .
. .
Transmit Timeout Errors
. .
. .
This counter is incremented when a frame does not transfer within the expected amount of time.
. .
. .
The adapter will be reset and operation should continue. The Adapter Reset statistic will also
. .
increment.
. .
. .
. .
If this counter increments rapidly in a short period of time, check to ensure that the cables are
. .
properly connected. The Link Status LED should be lit if the driver is loaded and the adapter is
. .
. . connected to a hub. If this statistic still increments, power off the system and check the following:
. .
. .
Check the module on the NetFlex-3 Controller to ensure that it is correctly installed.
. .
. .
Check the seating of the NetFlex-3 Controller into its slot.
. .
. .
If all of these elements appear to be in working order:
. .
. .
1. Swap out the adapter and adapter cable one at a time. If you find a faulty component, replace
. .
. .
it.
. .
. .
2. Check your hub. This component may be at fault. Use the diagnostics from the hub
. .
. . manufacturer to help you determine if a problem exists.
. .
. .
Send Abort Link Failures
. .
. .
. .
This indicates how many transmitted packets have failed to transmit due to link failures.
. .
. .
. . Transmit Packets Copied
. .
. .
Indicates how many packets have been copied by the driver before transmission. This counter
. .
. .
enables you to monitor inefficient NLMs running on the server. NLMs that use up to 16
. .
fragments transmitted per packet may cause this counter to be incremented.
. .
. .
A typical file server will never see this counter increment.
. .
. .
. .
Oversized Receive Errors
. .
. .
. .
If a packet is received that is larger than the maximum allowed on Ethernet, this counter will be
. .
incremented. A high number of these errors indicates that a node has malfunctioned and is
. .
. .
