27223 | RM6 error during bootup: The message definition file was not found | 26 Jun 2001 |
Status | Issued |
Description |
When a Server is booted with any one of the Hardware RAID product arrays attached, Raid Manager (any version) is loaded on the system and will start up during the boot process. Included in the startup of Raid Manager is the execution of the /etc/init.d/amdemon script. When the script is executed, it will report the following error.... The message definition file was not found.c1t5d0s01T95126181 The message definition file was not found. The system completes its bootup and everything appears to be OK with RM6. Health check passes, luns are optimal and there is access to data.
SOLUTION SUMMARY:
The error messages are generated when an nvutil command is executed from the /etc/init.d/amdemon script. The command is ... /usr/lib/osa/bin/nvutil -v -f The cause of the problem is with the /usr/lib/osa/messages.cat file. This binary file is either missing or corrupt. It appears to have a lot of the messages and dialogue pop-up strings you would see when administering RM6 from the GUI. The solution is to restore the file from backup or from the Raid Manager Media. Once restored, re-execute /usr/lib/osa/bin/nvutil -v -f command. You should see the expected output.... The NVSRAM settings of controller c1t5d0s0(1T95126181) are correct. nvutil command succeeded.
