1405.0. "Problems with notes" by COMICS::CORNEJ (What's an Architect?) Mon Feb 24 1997 16:10

    Over the last few days I've had lots of problem with notes - "network
    partned exited" errors.  It is on many different conferences and from
    several different systems, so it isn't a simple problem.   UK
    conferences are all OK - it is only ones in the US.
    
    Is anyone else experiencing problems?

I've had no problems with U.S. based notes conferences from Reading.

    Yes, I have seen that - mainly the Boston area notes. I know they are
    re-arranging things over there so maybe thats why

    Interesting that a $directory SMURF:: works,  while a $directory/FULL
    SMURF:: hangs for minutes.  SMURF:: is just one of many nodes that fail
    like this!

    Noted was where I first noticed it - since then every US based
    conference I access works for a note or two, then stops for ever!
    
    Is this a DECnet virus :-)

	I've logged this with the US network ops centre. It seems to affect
systems in Areas 55, 7 & 4. However, it doesn't all systems in those areas.

	You need to be more specific about what your problem is.
        There's no problem with the conference, it works fine for me.
        
        If you get a more detailed error message, set your right
        margin to 80 columns and post it here, someone may be able to
        help more.

1405.16I gotta problem too.KERNEL::LUCKMANThu May 08 1997 18:0813
	I've also got a problem connecting to a couple of confeences
	also on Humane. They are postscript_printing and ansi_printing.

	The error is:

	Error writing HUMANE::
	Device timeout.

	A colleague can connect to both these conferences from a different
	node.

	Any ideas?

    Isn't HUMANE a cluster ? If so, it's entirely possible that some nodes
    work OK for Notes, and some don't because something's been "adjusted".
    Try again a couple of times and you'll get another node in the cluster,
    and it might work.
    
    Then again, it might just be part of a grand plan to Stamp Out Notes.

1405.18Device Timeout - exit notes and reenterKERNEL::ANDERSONLFri May 16 1997 14:348
    A bit late I know but the problem if you get Device Timeout is on the
    node your notebook is on.  I have had this problem for a while and have
    found that exiting from notes and going back in fixes it for a while,
    eventually however I have to log off from the node and reconnect as the
    error occurs more and more frequently.  I have logged a call with 3030
    and will let you know what the response is...

1405.19CHEFS changes?WOTVAX::rasmodem32.reo.dec.com::eurichBruno Eurich, NSIS UKThu May 22 1997 11:1711
Is anyone aware of any Notes/network configuration changes on 
CHEFS recently ?

My Netnotes client is now no longer able to access any notesfiles 
going direct using "chefs.reo.dec.com".

If I route through "warder.reo.dec.com", it seems to work OK - 
however obviously it makes sense to use direct connections to save 
our poor network ;-)
