4021.0. "AIDA server startup query" by WAYOUT::TALBOT (Trevor Talbot) Thu Mar 24 1994 12:00

Hi,

	Can anyone explain why the following would occur
and 'quel significance' ?

On a 2 node cluster of 4600's running ALL-IN-1 V3.0A
AND TLC V2.0 , after a re-boot the AIDA
servers didn't start. They were manually started and
all was o.k. the log file reported the following error:

%OARTL-E-BADSTARTSTAE, Server state not stopped.

	This hasn't occured on earlier re-boots.

Hi Andy,

Hi,

Here are the contents of 2 log files:

[ALLIN1.LOG]AIDA$1994restofdate.TMP_2020456_INPUT
$aida$restart_max == "5"
$aida$threads == "10"
$aida$process_name == "AIDA$SERVER"
$aida$node == "ice1"
.
.
$aida$success_test == " Server !AS successfully started on node !AS"
$aida$failure_text == "AIDA server failed to start on node !AS"
$@oa$lib:sm_aida_start_image

[ALLIN1.LOG]AIDA$OUTPUT_1994restofdate.LOG_dateandtime

Does this make sense to anyone?

4021.4more guesses...AIMTEC::WICKS_AAtlanta's Most (In)famous WelshmanTue Mar 29 1994 05:0223
    trev,
    
    sorry but for what seems like forever i've been in transit
    between my old 'large' office to my new 'midget-size' office ...
    anyway here's a couple of things to check
    
    1) do they have the SSB version of the TLC i.e BL41
    2) presumably that DCL error is coming from theire SYLOGIN - obviously
       that should be fixed but the $SET NOVERIFY isn't very helpful since
       it means we see nothing coming out of SYS$STARTUP:OA$AIDA_START.COM
       so maybe you could have a quiet word with them about that?
    
    having said that my understaning of BADSERVSTATE implies that the
    server wasn't really stopped when they rebooted - there was a problem
    and its somewhere in the TeamLinks notesfile about the AIDA config
    file getting its knickers-in-a-twist if the state that the server 
    claimed to be in wasn't actually true.
    
    anyway some things to think about...
    
    regards,
