ENOTACTIVE
Inactive solaris facility
On Solaris, ENOTACTIVE is errno value 73. The base message is Facility is not active
, but the useful diagnostic context is narrower than the short message: a Solaris system call required a facility that was not active.
Use the Solaris-specific errno table first, then compare with POSIX only for portable behavior. Some Solaris values share names with other UNIX systems but have different numbers or more specific historical meanings.
What to check
- Oracle documents Extended Accounting as one example of a facility whose inactive state can cause this error.
- Check the administrative service state before changing application parameters.
- Record the subsystem name because the numeric errno alone does not identify the inactive facility.
