Error Code Description

1377660

A subnet with the name already exists in the IPspace.

1377661

Subnet in IPspace cannot use subnet address because that address is already used by another subnet in the same IPspace.

1377662

The IP range address is not within the subnet in IPspace.

1377663

The specified IP address range of subnet in IPspace contains an address already in use by a LIF.

1377664

The specified IP address range of subnet in IPspace contains an address already in use by the Service Processor.

1377673

The addresses provided must have the same address family.

1377681

Cannot update LIF associations for LIF. The broadcast domain of the LIF does not match the broadcast domain of the subnet.

1966269

IPv4 Addresses must have a prefix length between 1 and 32.

1967082

The specified ipspace.name does not match the IPspace name of specified ipspace.uuid

53282568

The subnet.address must be specified together with subnet.netmask.

53282569

The specified subnet.netmask is not valid.

53282570

Each pair of ranges must have ip_ranges.start less than or equal to ip_ranges.end.

53282571

The ip_ranges.start and ip_ranges.end fields must have the same number of items.

53282573

Broadcast domain is a required parameter. The broadcast_domain.name and/or the broadcast_domain.uuid must be specified.

53282574

The specified broadcast_domain and ipspace parameters do not match.

53282575

Operation might have left configuration in an inconsistent state. Unable to set UUID for created entry.

53282576

The specified ipspace.uuid is invalid.

53282577

The specified broadcast_domain.uuid is invalid.

53282578

The specified broadcast_domain.name does not match the IPspace name of specified broadcast_domain.uuid

53282579

Missing the ipspace.name or ipspace.uuid parameter.
