ICause:  This is a generic initialization failure message. If the
IBMTOK.OS2 device driver encounters any errors during initialization,
the specific message related to the error will accompany this generic
message.

Action:  Resolve the specific error message that accompanies this
message.  In addition, ensure that the Protocol Manager device driver,
PROTMAN.OS2, is located in the \IBMCOM directory, and that a DEVICE
statement for PROTMAN.OS2 exists in the CONFIG.SYS file.
?
ICause:  The value provided for the parameter is not the
correct type or is not a valid value.

Action:  Change the value for the parameter in PROTOCOL.INI.
ICause:  Conflicting parameter values were found
while processing the IBM Token-Ring Network Driver
section of PROTOCOL.INI.

Action:  Examine the configuration parameters and
correct the conflicting values in PROTOCOL.INI.
ICause:  One of the following conditions has caused this error.

- The logical primary/alternate setting in the PROTOCOL.INI file does
not map to the physical primary/alternate setting.

- The adapter is not responding to a request to start.

- There is no physical adapter in this machine.

Action:  If there is already an adapter in this system, check the
logical primary/alternate setting.  Check the cable and ensure that
the connection to the token-ring network addressable unit (NAU) is
functioning properly.  Then run the hardware diagnostics for the
token-ring adapter to ensure that the adapter and options are correctly
installed.

If there is no adapter in this machine, install a token-ring adapter
or remove the device driver statement from the CONFIG.SYS file.
ICause:  An unexpected error occurred when the program
attempted to open the protocol manager.

Action:  Check the drive and directory to ensure that
the protocol manager is located in the specified path.
?
ICause:  The IBM Token-Ring Network adapter encountered a wire fault.

Action:

1. Check and secure all cable connections between your adapter and the
Multistation Access Unit (MSAU).  Correct any related problems and
try the operation again.

2. If there are no related problems, refer to the documentation that
was shipped with your adapter to run adapter diagnostics; then try
the operation again.

3. If the problem persists, print or save the LANTRAN.LOG file and
contact your service coordinator.
ICause:  The requested DIR.OPEN.ADAPTER parameter has not allowed enough
receive buffer space in the adapter shared RAM area.

Action:  Reduce the RAM requirements by reconfiguring the parameters
in PROTOCOL.INI.  The parameters that will reduce the space requirements
for the receive buffer are the transmit buffers (if more than 1 is
specified).
?
ICause:  The node address defined is not valid.

Action:  Specify a valid node address.  Refer to the IBM Token-Ring
network architecture reference for node address restrictions.
ICause:  The receive buffer length defined in PROTOCOL.INI is not
valid.  The value specified must be greater than the allowable
minimum, less than the allowable maximum, and a multiple of 8.

Action:  Specify a valid receive buffer length.
ICause:  The adapter transmit buffer length defined in PROTOCOL.INI is not
valid.  The value specified must be greater than the allowable
minimum, less than the allowable maximum, and a multiple of 8.
Also, the IBM Token-Ring Network adapter may have switched from 16 Mbps to 4 Mbps,
causing the transmit buffer length specified to exceed the maximum.

Action:  Specify a valid adapter transmit buffer length.  If it is suspected
that the IBM Token-Ring Network adapter switched to 4 Mbps, restart the
computer to reset the protocol drivers.
ICause:  You are attempting to load more than two Token-Ring Shared Ram 
device drivers.

Action:  Use the "Configure LAN transports" utility in LAPS to configure a
maximum of two "IBM Token-Ring Network Adapters" or "Token-Ring Network       
Adapters" in any combination.  Also, verify that you are attempting to load no
more than two instances of any combination of IBMTOK.OS2 or TOK.OS2 in your   
CONFIG.SYS file.                                                              
ICause:  While attempting to open a new Token-Ring adapter
using the autosense configuration option, it was determined that the adapter
was the only station on the ring.  The adapter will not be allowed to open
in order to prevent possible network disruptions.

User Action:  Restart the application at a later time, when at least one other
station is on the ring.  As an alternative, reconfigure the adapter for
manual mode, specifying the correct speed of the Token-Ring to which the
adapter is connected, then restart the computer.
ICause:  The adapter was closed because of an unexpected error condition.

Action:  See the message log, LANTRAN.LOG, for additional information
about this error.  The error must be corrected before you can use this
adapter.
ICause:  The IBM Token-Ring Network adapter has either detected a monitor
contention failure or received a beacon frame from the ring.  The
problem may be that your adapter speed is different from the speed
at which the LAN is running.

Action:

1. Check and secure all cable connections between your adapter and the
Multistation Access Unit (MSAU).  Correct any related problems and
try the operation again.

2. If there are no related problems, refer to the documentation that
was shipped with your adapter to run adapter diagnostics; then try
the operation again.

3. If the problem persists, print or save the LANTRAN.LOG file and
contact your service coordinator.
ICause:  A command forcing the adapter to remove itself from the ring was
received.

Action:  Contact your LAN personnel to determine why the REMOVE command
was issued for your machine.
?
ICause:  The IBM Token-Ring Network adapter has detected a problem
on your local lobe between the adapter and the Multistation Access
Unit (MSAU).
