SMDR-X-17: An external SMDR failed to respond to the connection request.
Source: SMDR.NLM
Possible Cause: An invalid SMDR name was typed, or one was typed that is outside the SAP advertising scope and is therefore invisible. Visible SMDRs can remain visible somewhat longer than they are available. When SMDR is unloaded, it can still be visible to other servers for a short time. Also, a loaded SMDR can fail to respond to a connection request if the CPU is too busy with higher priority tasks and cannot process the SMDR request within an allotted time.
Action: Make sure that the SMDR is properly loaded; then retry the operation. If the problem persists, contact a Novell support provider.
