Netapp error:

fpolicy.fscreen.server.connectError severity="ERR" Error message fpolicy.fscreen.server.connectError severity="ERR" Cause This error occurs when the storage system encounters an error while attempting to communicate with an FPolicy (file policy) server. The communication failure causes the storage system to break its connection with this server. The error can be due to network problems, security settings on the FPolicy server that deny access to the storage system, or hardware or software problems on the FPolicy server. The problem can also occur if a low memory situation on the storage system prevents the storage system from obtaining resources needed to perform the operation. Recommended action Examine the error code to see whether it helps point to the cause of the problem. Examine the event logs of the FPolicy server to determine whether it is disconnected from the storage system and why. Examine the storage system syslog for error messages. Correct any problems that are found, such as network errors or hardware problems on the FPolicy server. Check whether a software patch was recently installed on the FPolicy server that might have changed security settings.
