  2.  
  3. Here is a some usefull information  that Novell  Tech Support gave me in
  4. trying to decipher GPI or NMI abends.
  5.  
  6. When the server abends, type "deb" at the server console.  Deb will not be
  7. echoed on the screen and a "*" should appear.  If the dash appears type i61
  8. and enter.  A return code should appear.

  14.               40-7F                              problems with cards in the
  15.                                                  server. ie network boards,
  16.                                                  graphics board or disk cntl.

  18.              < 3F                                corrupted network operating
  19.                                                  system. (solution: regenerate
  20.                                                  operating system).
  21.  
  22. Your can also type ? and the GPI/NMI error message will re-appear. I hope this
  23. will help you track down the causes of GPI and NMI abends.
