1865.0. "strange DEFPA-DA in AlphaStation 200 4/166" by HGCS09::PAULCHOI (PAUL CHOI @HGO) Wed Nov 15 1995 04:24
Posted in both ALPHASTATION and FDDI notes conferences
Hi,
My customer has been running OSF/1 V3.2 in four of his AlphaStation 200 4/166
(SRM FW X4.2-3) systems with the following config for a while without any
problem.
Recently our engineer tried to upgrade SRM firmware to X5.0-29 in two of
the systems to see looping strange errors as attached when the two systems
were powered up after the SRM fw upgrade. After a lot of invetigation,
we found out that whenever we properly connected the two pairs of multimode
fibre-optical cables from the module DEFPA-DA to the DECconcentrator 900MX,
we would see such errors. Every time we disconnected the two pairs of
fibre-optical cables, we didn't see such errors when powered the systems up.
At last we had to down graded both systems to SRM FW X4.2-3 to resume normal
operation.
Does any body has any idea what's happening in SRM FW X5.0-29?
Do we have problem supporting DEFPA-DA in AlphaStation 200 4/166 system
with SRM FW X5.0-29?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Regards,
Paul
