Symptoms

Error messages like these appear after each "erd" event message:

Aug 15 07:32:39 2006 sc0-summer erd[3107]: [11900 ... CRIT MessageReportingService.cc 243] [VCM] Event: SF15000-800C-SP CSN: 310A4711 DomainID: A ADInfo: 1.VCM-DE.1 Time: Tue Aug 15 07:32:31 MEST 2006 Recommended-Action: Service action required
Aug 15 07:32:39 2006 sc0-summer erd[3107]: [11918 ... ERR RemoteReportingService.cc 237] EVENT-CLASS: list.suspects; Connection to Nile proxy is down and could not be re-established, remote reporting aborted.

The exact line numbers vary between SMS versions and patch levels.

Cause

erd is looking for a library (libsrsimapi.so.1) to log the event to SRS/NetConnect* but fails to find it, most likely because it was never installed.

Solution

This message is harmless.

The Nile proxy is a piece of software used to establish a safe connection from the customer's system to a site within Sun for remote system monitoring.
erd is looking for a library (libsrsimapi.so.1) to log the event to SRS/NetConnect* but fails to find it, most likely because it was never installed.

Relief/Workaround

If SRS/NetConnect* is installed and you still see these messages, please check the installation instructions for the package and SMS.

Additional Information
Please note that other Sun software may also use this library to report events to Sun.

* SRS/Netconnect infrastructure was decommissioned in May 2009 and was replaced by Solaris Tool Bundle.
