FMV0238E
The
sequence of calls is invalid.
Explanation
Then API requires function calls to be made in a specific sequence. The
function calls were not made in the expected sequence. The error can be
triggered by the following issues:
- An error in the network.
- A bug in the Tivoli Storage Manager API.
- A bug in the Tivoli Storage Manager server.
- A bug in the application (IBM or third party) that uses the Tivoli Storage Manager API.
System action
The system returns to the calling procedure.
User response
An end user can respond in the following ways:
- Check the network for errors.
- Look for clues in the Tivoli Storage Manager server activity log file, Tivoli Storage Manager client side dsierror.log log file, and log files that are specific to the problem application.
- Search the IBM support pages for APARs that match the problem. The Tivoli Storage Manager Manager support site is at Tivoli Storage Manager Support Portal (http://www.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/product/tivoli/tivoli_storage_manager)
- If the API application is developed by a third party (not IBM), search that third party's support pages for known issues that match the problem.
If none of the above actions resolve the problem, report the problem to the vendor of the application that uses the Tivoli Storage Manager API.
A developer of an application that uses the Tivoli Storage Manager API must investigate the reason for the problem, including reviewing the Tivoli Storage Manager API state diagram. The Tivoli Storage Manager API state diagram is in the product documentation at Tivoli Storage Manager product documentation (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSGSG7)
