Novell Documentation: NetWare 6 - SERVER-X-1616: An NLM has been loaded that does not allow low priority threads to be run. Low priority threads are used for file compression, etc. Set `Upgrade Low Priority Threads' to ON or unload the NLM.

SERVER-X-1616: An NLM has been loaded that does not allow low priority threads to be run. Low priority threads are used for file compression, etc. Set `Upgrade Low Priority Threads' to ON or unload the NLM.

Source: SERVER.EXE

Possible Cause: An NLM has been loaded that does not yield the CPU properly. Some processes, such as file compression, cannot be completed.

Action: Use the SET server utility to set the Upgrade Low Priority Threads parameter to On, or unload the NLM.

If this NLM is from a vendor other than Novell, try loading the NLM using the following command line syntax:

LOAD NLM (CLIB_OPT)/Y

This syntax causes the NLM to use a different method of yielding CPU calls (using a handicapped queue) that allows priority threads to run.
