| A customer does the following:
MFC MS MCS DC (Disconnect Client) and get the error message:
%OAFC-W-BUFFOVFL, client buffer not big enough for requested
information
followed by:
Server must be running to perform operation
BUT the server is running.
This happens on nodes in the cluster that have >100 users on a node
with < 50 users, the customer does not get the above error message. On
my node with a couple of users I don't get the error message.
The customer wants to know if there is a limit on the number of people
using the server before you experience the problem ? The main reason
why they would like to know is because they are thinking of having
multiple servers running so that they don't have to effect 100's of
users if the server has to be shutdown.
I think that I may have seen this problem reported somewhere but I just
cannot find the topic. Any pointers or help would be gratefully
accepted.
Regards,
Sunil

This is the effect of a known bug. The MCS will make a call to the
FCS to get info on the connected people. If there are over x people
(sorry, don't know what x is), this error is returned. The bug is
in the IOS UI code. It passes a buffer in, if the buffer is not
large enough for the info, this message is returned. What should
now happen is the application (IOS UI) traps the error, makes the
buffer bigger and tries again. It doesn't, hence the bug.
