fta Elasticity buffer errors ?

Hi all,

I am seeing frequent fta interface errors of the following sort in /var/adm/messages:

Jul 31 08:02:09 HOSTNAME vmunix: fta1: Elasticity buffer error

Does anyone know what is the precise meaning and impact of these errors?

Best regards,
Michael

Re: fta Elasticity buffer errors ?

The Elasticity Buffer Error condition occurs when a port's elasticity buffer overflows or underflows. This condition usually indicates that a port's hardware is not operating within the tolerances that the FDDI standard specifies.
So, you probably have hardware problem in your FDDI envirement (HBA, port, cable etc).
