<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=375034413-09112004>There
can be several problems:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=375034413-09112004>- The
retry count is too small - try to put max number - 7</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=375034413-09112004>-
Maybe the timeout is too small - so the HCA start to perform retry too much -
try to enlarge it to 21</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=375034413-09112004>- Can
be that the PSN between two sides is not synchronized</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=375034413-09112004>- The
link fail</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=375034413-09112004>- The
QP in the other side was closed or moved to error</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=375034413-09112004>In
case this error occurs at the beginning of the application then it can
indicate that the QP configuration is wrong.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
