PDE not accessible: Cannot open PDE device

Hello all!

In my laptop env I have TD 13.10 version. After some reboots, Teradata didn’t start properly. So, when I issued

s10-1310:~ # pdestate -a
PDE state: DOWN/HARDSTOP
s10-1310:~ # /etc/init.d/tpa start
Teradata Database Initiator service is starting...
Teradata Database Initiator service started successfully.
s10-1310:~ # pdestate -a
PDE state: DOWN/HARDSTOP

Interesting…

So, I began reading OS logs first. Check out this:
/var/log/messages:

I deleted this file and now, everything works fine! So, be careful with reboots. Now, you are know how resolve this issue.
