7062.0. "OpenVms V7.1 and SNAGWY-ST v1.2-08 supported?" by PRIVAT::ANCA () Wed Apr 09 1997 03:16

        Hi,

        one of my customers has updated to
        OpenVms/VAX V7.1 with DECnet/Plus.

        He use (sorry , he want to use) this machine
        as a downline loading host for SNAGWY-ST V1.2-08.

        Q. Is this configuration supprorted
           (OpenVms V7.1 and SNAGWY-ST V1.2-08)  ?

         Thanks a lot in advance ,
         Anca radulescu

7062.1loads O/S but not config files...CSCMA::HATCHWed Apr 09 1997 10:3314
    Hi Anca
    
    	I am working with a customer who has this configuration.  We are
    having problems with the SNAINI object connection from snagwy::SNA$GO.
    Fortunately the customer still has his VAX up and running so we have
    some time to work on this!  In the meantime, I am looking for a system
    to test on so if anyone has a vms v7.1 system that they wouldn't mind
    having us play on please let me know.
    
    
    Thanks

	Yes Helen ,
	
	it is exactly my problem.	
	
	The customer has PSI (Datexp) and I used the same way to his system.	
	I'll contact him today and I'll mail you on CSCMA::HATCH the 
	PSI address and user/pass.
		
	Regards,
	Anca.

Re: -.*

What about showing us some OPCOM message with Audit-messages and DECnet-
events, showing the initialization failure ?

7062.5engineering has the data....18649::HATCHFri Apr 11 1997 12:398
    Hi
    
    	Copy of the opcom log has been faxed to engineering.  Anca, I was
    hoping for a system in house.  I am not comfortable with this type of
    testing on a customer system.

7062.6proxy definition was not correct18649::HATCHMon Apr 14 1997 15:2122
    Hi
    	The sna$go proxy was not defined in authorize as local:.snagwy.
    Once we added the proxy with that as the node name the gateway loaded. 
    And even though the proxy is displayed with and without the local:.
    in front of it, the proxy without the local:. is NOT accessible!
      
    	Now the problem is the the event logger is failing with the
    following error: 
     
    command failed due to:  No such object instance.  
    
    He is running ST v1.2 eco 08.  He does have the net$manage rights
    identifier granted to the user from which he is starting this
    application. 
    
    	By the way Bill, I did not have to add a CML user and object.
    
    
    Thanks.

I assume that this happens during execution of the procedure
SNAGM$EVL_STARTUP and that the above error happens upon trying
to change the session control application (object) with NCL?

This is one of the last commands in the procedure, and happens
after starting the SNAEVL (detached) process. This process de-
clares the object aka creates the session control application 58.
Apparently in your situation, the process and/or object are not there.
Was the SNAEVL-process started and is it still around ? Any infor-
mation in the logfile SYS$MANAGER:SNAEVL.LOG ?

7062.8no process, error in log fileCSCMA::HATCHThu Apr 17 1997 14:1211
    Hi all
    
    	The snaevl process is not up after the msg appears.  In the
    snaevl.log file the following is written:  
    
    SNAEVL starting
    system-f-nolognam, no logical name.

    Modify the SYS$COMMON:[SYS$STARTUP]SNAGM$EVL_STARTUP.COM
    to SET VERIFY!

7062.10OpenVms V7.1 and SNAGWY-ST v1.2-08 supported?PRIVAT::ANCAFri Apr 18 1997 08:3913
Hi all,	

I have installed yesterday on my machine and today on the customers system	
and it works without  problems.

I don't know if it is supported or not BUT it works.

I have had a lot of problems with DECnet/PLus mop database,but not with 
snagwy software.

Thanks a lot for all ,
Regards,
Anca.	
7062.11not much more to add for details...NECSC::HATCHFri Apr 18 1997 13:0320
    Hi Anca,
    
    
    	Did the event logger start?
    
    
    Hi Bill
    
  	There are no additional errors in the evl log when running with 
    set verify. The customer is seeing the error when the startup file
    sys$startup:sna$evl_startup.com submits the command run
    sys$system:snaevl /detached ...
    
    	The error is %system-f-nolognam, no logical name match
    
    
    Thanks,

    Post the snaevl.log with verify on so I can see what's happening
    myself.     
    
    Thanks
7062.13log file is being faxed to you 18649::HATCHMon Apr 21 1997 15:3911
    Hi Bill
    
    	I am having the customer fax you the log information. Please watch
    for it today.

    Helen,
    
    I wasn't in yesterday. Patriot's Day and the Marathon! I never
    work that day. I love to watch people who can run 26+ miles!
    After 3-5 I'm done!
    
    Looking for FAX.

7062.15EDSCLU::PORCAROWed Apr 23 1997 15:4424
    Helen,
    
    I see the log data.
    
    It appears the SNAEVL starts.
    
    "SNAEVL starting." is written to the logfile from the MAIN routine.
    "%SYSTEM-F-NOLOGNAM, no logical name match" must be causing
    image exit. I don't know where, why just yet.
    
    Do the following:
    
    1. Close this note and work officially in IBM_IC_SUPPORT.
    
    2. Change SNAGM$EVL_STARTUP.COM by commenting out
       two lines and running it. $!DEFINE/USER SYS$OUTPUT NL:
       Same for sys$error.
    
    3. $sh log SYS$NODE
    
    I'm not sure what the problem is there. It works here o.k. on
    7.1 with DECnet+.
    
    Bill
