Notes:  
 
If the ASI card is working correctly, the log file will be relatively small (few 
log entries). 
 
For more information on the grep utility, type man grep and press Enter
4  Scan the log messages for errors.  
 
If you find the 
ASI card in slot PCI1 (/dev/Hmux0) does not have the 
correct permissions
 error, you need to copy the configureASI.pl script from 
the DNCS to the RNCS. See Copying the configureASI.pl Script to the RNCS 
for more information. 
 
If you find other recurring errors, contact Cisco Services. 
 
Verifying the ASI Card Owner and Permissions 
If you receive an error message concerning the ASI card in your RNCS when you 
attempt to start the RNCS services, you will need to verify the ASI card owner and 
the card permissions. 
Note: Solaris logs the ASI card error messages as part of the standard Solaris log. To 
view the ASI log messages, see ASI Card Log Messages (on page 85).
