NI Error Information
If an error occurs or is detected by a node between the client and final destination, an error info packet is sent to the client. A 9-byte eye catcher characterizes this error information; the data is basically an ASCII string.
The data structure is formatted as follows:
Offset |
Size |
Description and Value |
|---|---|---|
|
|
eye catcher ("NI_RTERR\0") |
|
|
NI version (current version: 36) |
|
|
operation code (error information: 0; other messages > 0) |
|
|
currently unused filed |
|
|
return code (integer value in net byte order) |
|
|
error information text length (integer value in net byte order) |
|
|
error information text in ASCII |
A user will be notified by the client (e.g. SAP GUI) that an error occurred, the SAProuter just forwards the packet.
