Answer

This error is logged in EMS when one of three invalid TCP record markers is received:

  • TCP_FRAGMENT - Received a packet where the 'RPC Last Fragment' bit is set to 0

    • ONTAP does not support these calls

  • TCP_DATA_LENGTH_OVERFLOW - Received a packet where the record marker is greater than the maximum supported

    • Pre Clustered Data ONTAP 8.2 =  70KB

    • Clustered Data ONTAP 8.2 to Clustered Data ONTAP 8.3.2 = 300KB

    • ONTAP 9 and above = 1MB

  • TCP_DATA_LENGTH_UNDERFLOW - Received a packet where the record marker is less than 40 Bytes
