CKGB-587 — Socket collision report message

Severity

E (error)

Message text

Overlaping socket: %s

Description

Configuration integrity constraint function has detected an error. Some listening sockets are in collision with other application, or a port range that some application is listening on collides with system generic port range.

This log message reports one of colliding addresses, namely application type and socket information. The CML path preceding the message shows precisely the point of configuration where the overlaping socket is defined.

In the case of a sysctl portrange, the path should point to the system root section. This means that particular portrange was not redefined by the admin (by the PORTRANGE-LOW, PORTRANGE-HIGH and PORTRANGE-DEFAULT items in the SYSCTL section) and the system default value is used. None of those portranges can overlap with a range of ports that some application is listening on.
