Hello All.
My name is Donnell mckinney. I am with the PATHWORKS Support Group.
This is my question. Can the "Cluster Volume Flag" Active be
changed? If so how. If not why not?
$SCONSOLE
2. Configuration Menu
3. Services Configuration Menu
1. File Services Configuration Menu
3. Edit a Volume
1 (C) SYS _$1$DIA5:[PWVN$SYSVOL]
Press RETURN FOR MORE, or enter volume number and press RETURN: 1
Volume Name SYS
Directory _$1$DIA5:[PWVN$SYSVOL]
.
.
.
Cluster Volume Flag ACTIVE
If I try to downarrow to this field the screen cursor skips over it.
However, I can toggle the 'ACTIVE' field on non-system volumes.
How can this value be changed. The customer's configuration is in
a cluster envirnoment.
Thanks to all.

Conceptually, here's how it's *supposed* to work:
If you are in a clustered environment, you can be running more
than one NetWare server in the cluster. Thus, volumes can be
initially specified as either:
(1) Cluster-wide (will be mounted by each/every NetWare server
that starts in that cluster)
or
(2) Node-specific (will be mounted only by this server)
Having said that, I have not [yet] attempted to reproduce the
problem you seem to be having, partly because I'm not exactly
sure how your volume was initially specified.
But, I'm quite certain that you can work around whatever problem
you're seeing by using SCONSOLE to:
(1) Remove/delete the volume (that operation won't alter the
contents of the files in that VMS directory tree)
(2) Add that same volume back into the system, making sure
that you specify which behavior you want. Make sure
that you use the same name as before for the volume
and that you specify the same VMS-directory as was
specified as before.
Don't forget that you need to bounce the server (stop/restart the
server) after doing those 2 steps, to make the changes visible to
the users.
Does this help?
