Error Message
%OS-PLACED_NODES-7-NO_INVENTORY The LR inventory is empty or not available
(despite waiting for over a minute for it) - error ’[chars]’. PlaceD cannot
function without this information, so will restart and attempt to wait for the
information again.
Explanation Placement requires a complete knowledge of the LR inventory in order to function as
expected. The LR inventory is currently not fully populated, so PlaceD is restarting in order to give
the LR inventory time to finish initialising. If this message continues to appear, this indicates that
the LR information is not able to complete, and that this will be affecting the ability of the system
to function.
Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system
log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the gathered
information.
Error Message
%OS-PLACED_NODES-7-NODEID

Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the gathered information.
Error Message
%OS-PLACED_PLACE-4-CANT_START Unable to start program [chars]%s[chars] since
there is insufficient cpu or memory capacity
Explanation Starting the new program would overflow the watermarks for the cpu or memory
capacity currently available.
Recommended Action Options include adding or unpairing a DRP, deconfiguring some features, or
increasing the watermarks configured by placement { cpu | memory } maximum. One can also
specify particularly important or disposable processes via configuring large or small existence
affinities if so desired.
Error Message
%OS-PLACED_PLACE-4-KILLING Killing program [chars]%s[chars] since there is
insufficient cpu or memory capacity for all configured processes
Explanation There is insufficient cpu or memory capacity for all configured placeable processes.
Recommended Action Options include adding or unpairing a DRP, deconfiguring some features, or
increasing the watermarks configured by placement { cpu | memory } maximum. One can also
specify particularly important or disposable processes via configuring large or small existence

Error Message
%OS-PLACED_PLACE-4-LISTEN
([chars])
Unable to listen for multicast messages: [chars]
Explanation PlaceD is unable to register to receive multicast messages. This means that the location
which emitted the message will not be able to keep its local copy of the current placement, persisted
to non-volatile storage, up to date.
Recommended Action If this is a transient issue then the router will recover. Also, restarting the
PlaceD instance that emitted this message will cause it to re-register to receive these updates. If the
issue persists: Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, call
your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the gathered
information.
Error Message
%OS-PLACED_PLACE-4-REOP_ABORTED Re-optimization of the placement aborted due to

Explanation The program was previously prevented from running due to insufficient cpu or memory,
but that situation no longer applies and so the program has now been started. This message may also
result from problems in retrieving the node inventory for the router.
Recommended Action Options to prevent the original inability to run include adding or unpairing a
DRP, deconfiguring some features, or increasing the watermarks configured by placement { cpu |
memory } maximum. One can also specify particularly important or disposable processes via
configuring large or small existence affinities if so desired. If a node inventory problem is suspected:
Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log. Issue the show
tech-support placement command to gather data that may provide information to determine the
nature of the error. If you cannot determine the nature of the error from the error message text or
from the show tech-support placement output, call your Cisco technical support representative and
provide the representative with the gathered information.

Error Message
%OS-PLACED_PLACE-5-WRITE_PERSIST
placement: [chars] ([chars])
Unable to [chars] when writing persistent
Explanation The current placement was being persisted to non- volatile storage, but a problem
occured. If this condition persists then it is possible that the placement of processes across the
available RPs and DRPs will be different after the next router/LR reload.
Recommended Action The write operation will be automatically re-tried later, so if this is a transitory
condition then the system will recover completely without intervention. If this is a persistent
problem then: Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, call
your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the gathered
information.
Error Message
%OS-PLACED_PLACE-6-REOP_COMPLETE Re-optimization of the placement complete. Use

Explanation The re-optimization of the placement has completed.
Recommended Action Use the ’show placement’ command to view the newly re-optimized placement.
Error Message
%OS-PLACED_PLACE-6-REOP_START Re-optimization of the placement requested. You
will be notified on completion
Explanation A re-optimization of the placement has started. The most optimal location of each
program will be re-calculated by ignoring any affinity of the default program to the current location.
Any resulting migrations will be rate limited accoring to the slow migration interval configured for
each program.
Recommended Action Wait for the notification that the re-optimization has completed before adding
or removing cards from the router, adding new configuration, or starting a new re-optimization.
Error Message
%OS-PLACED_PLACE-7-AFFINITY_ITERATOR
[chars]
Unable to obtain affinity iterator for
Explanation PlaceD was unable to obtain an iterator for all the affinities.
Recommended Action This is non-critical, and in the absence of other errors, simply means that one
facility (triggering reoptimisation of placements by the user) is inoperable.

Failed to update checkpoint record for
Explanation PlaceD was unable to update the checkpointed information indicating whether a
placement re-optimization is in progress.
Recommended Action This should not be a service-affecting incident. However, PlaceD may no
longer be able to correctly report the completion of re-optimization events. Copy the error message
exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, call your Cisco technical support
representative and provide the representative with the gathered information.
Error Message
%OS-PLACED_PLACE-7-LOOKUP_PERSIST Unable to [chars] when looking up persisted
placement for [chars]%s[chars]: [chars] ([chars])
Explanation PlaceD hit a problem when looking up the persisted location for a process. This means
that it may not be placed on the same location as it was assigned before the most recent reload of
the router or LR.
Recommended Action This should not be a service-affecting incident. If this is because the card on
which the process was previously placed has been removed, taken administratively down, or been
assigned to a different logical router, then this is entirely expected and benign. Otherwise: Copy the
error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log. Issue the show tech-support
placement command to gather data that may provide information to determine the nature of the error.
If you cannot determine the nature of the error from the error message text or from the show
tech-support placement output, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the
representative with the gathered information.

%OS-PLACED_PROGS-4-CANT_SUSPEND Unable to suspend the request to start the
process ’[chars]%s[chars]’ from location [chars]: [chars]
Explanation This is an out-of-memory message. PlaceD received a request to start the specified
process on the specified location, and wanted to suspend the request. This is because PlaceD has a
better location in mind, but is keeping the present location as a backup in case that card gets into
trouble. However, there was insufficient resources for PlaceD to effect the suspension.
Recommended Action Reduce other system activity to ease memory demands. If conditions warrant,
upgrade to a larger memory configuration. *SUPPORT*
