Shared Memory driver unable to initialize due to error in LISTENing on the specified Port, reason code reason code.

Explanation

While attempting to listen for session requests from clients using TCP/IP, TCP/IP returns an error. The reason code is the return code from the TCP/IP listen API.

System action

Server operation continues, but the server cannot accept additional sessions from clients using the Shared Memory protocol.

User response

Ensure that TCP/IP is running properly by issuing the TCP/IP netstat -s and ping commands to other nodes on your network. It may be possible to bring the server down and restart it to allow additional client sessions to start.
