Table 37 (page 156)

provides troubleshooting instructions for the XP Continuous Access Asynchronous

suspension conditions caused by the offloading timer async option, group timeout options (copy
pending and RCU ready), and recordset errors. Hardware failures that affect the storage
system/shared memory of the MCU or RCU may also cause the XP Continuous Access Asynchronous
pairs to be suspended.
