6-8 COMMON KERNEL ABORT CODES AND THEIR SOLUTIONS
A kernel abort trap (KAT) is an indication that the AP has detected a failure in its internal hardware, (e.g. a parity
error on a data transfer between two memories). KATs’ cause software to behave erratically. To determine if the
AP has had a KAT, the operator cancels to “R”, and if a kernel abort had occurredthe Kat will be written at the
end of a file called HPLOAD.LG. To continue running the system, APM will have to be reloaded (i.e. run UPAP).
(UPAP from DIR CTDS allows you to see if a kernel abort occurs. The words BUS ERROR or KERNEL ABORT
will appear at the end of the UPAP screens). The Kernel Abort Codes are listed here for your reference.
1) 4EED - bad DASIOP card
2) * BUS ERROR
SOLUTION:
a) PUBLIC MEMORY CARD - is FMI - 25070 (2 resistor fix) installed on Public Memory Card?
b) Public Memory bus is hung by another circuit card:
1. MASTER
2. SLAVE
3. DGIOP
4. DASIOP
5. SMP - LEAST LIKELY
