Hi,
One of our partners living a problem with a DEFEA-DA. The card is
installed in a server running NetWare 4.x . It is attached to two
different DECswitch 900EFs. The problem is after turning on the system;
the system crashes down about 2-3 hours later. Other servers on the
ethernet part are running but the server with DEFEA-DA crashes down.
When you wait for half an hour and turm the server on again, it is
running OK for another 3 hours. So, it should be a problem of heating
or something else ???
Is there anybody came accross with such a problem before ? I need
very urgent support because there 200 users accessing the server with
DEFEA-DA
Thanks
Resan YUNER

What do you mean by "crashes down"? Does the system catch on fire, or
does the server ABEND, lock up, or otherwise stop working?
If you believe that there's a hardware problem with the adapter, you
can try running the diagnostics. If you believe it's driver-related,
make sure that the customer is running the latest certified driver
(v2.80), which you can get off the v2.52 DEFEA driver kit posted
electronically.
