1468.0. "OAMTIMAIL and OAMTISEND entries retained on error" by HTSC19::STEVENLAU (Steven Lau HKCS) Tue Sep 22 1992 08:56

     A customer found the following entries in the batch queue.

Batch queue SYS$BATCH, on ELEC82::
  /BASE_PRIORITY=3 /CPUDEFAULT=INFINITE /CPUMAXIMUM=INFINITE /JOB_LIMIT=3
  /OWNER=[1,4] /PROTECTION=(S:E,O:D,G:R,W:W) /RETAIN=ERROR

Jobname       Username      Entry        Status
-------       --------      -----        ------
OAMTIMAIL     ALLIN1        232          Retained on error
  %LOGIN-F-OUTPUTERR, error opening primary output file SYS$OUTPUT
  -RMS-F-DEV, error in device name or inappropriate device type for operation
  -SYSTEM-W-NOSUCHDEV, no such device available

  File: _HSC009$DUA14:[ALLIN1.LIB_ENGLISH]OAMTIMAIL.COM;2

OAMTISEND     ALLIN1        233          Retained on error
  %LOGIN-F-OUTPUTERR, error opening primary output file SYS$OUTPUT
  -RMS-F-DEV, error in device name or inappropriate device type for operation

  File: _HSC009$DUA14:[ALLIN1.LIB_ENGLISH]OAMTISEND.COM;2


     The ALL-IN-1 version is V2.4. The OAMTIMAIL and OAMTISEND job has not 
stopped, but the entries appeared intermitently. Anyone has any idea?

Thanks,
  Steven Lau

    Looks like the device used for the log file is out of order...?

    Winton,
    
         Do you mean a hardware error?
    
    Thanks,
      Steven Lau

    Possibly - Or it could be disk full or disk quota etc, security...
     
    Basically it can't open for write - so could be anything that does that

1468.4No such device usually means no such device :-)IOSG::TALLETTArranging bits for a living...Tue Sep 22 1992 21:3718
    
    	I disagree. The error message is fairly specific, it says
    
  -RMS-F-DEV, error in device name or inappropriate device type for operation
  -SYSTEM-W-NOSUCHDEV, no such device available
    
    	which to me means that the device is no longer in the system.
    	Maybe a logical name that has been deassigned? Maybe you are
    	using the DISK$label logicals and you dismounted the disk?
    
    	Actually, I think the logicals are translated when the job is
    	put ON the queue, so removing them later wouldn't have any effect.
    	Did your HSC go down or something?
    
    	I don't think its protections or somesuch.
