BVQ Version: 2021.H1.3 and above


Procedure

Different problems can result in this error. One reason might be a full filesystem (as the error message itself suggests). Another reason might be a dodgy SEA adapter. Please run command

entstat -all entX

to see if there are Limbo Packets which indicate that the SEA has detected its physical network is not operational.
