3937.0. "no MOP clients in SDA" by CSC32::MACGREGOR (Colorado: the TRUE mid-west) Fri Apr 18 1997 16:45

    
    Looking for ideas, even abstract ones...
    
    PROBLEM:
    -------
    
    NCL>load mop client snanj9
    
    Node 0 MOP Client SNANJ9
    at 1997-04-18-16:25:18.580-04:00Iinf
    
    command failed due to:
     process failure
    
    An error was reported by the Data Link layer
        Reason                            = Wrong State

    Notice that there is no client for MOPDL or MOPRC.  A STOP/ID of the
    NET$MOP process followed with a @NET$STARTUP NETWORK MOP  returns us to
    the same state.
    
    Any ideas?

    Surely you want your mop circuit to have a non-empty set of functions?
    Mine has:
    
        Functions                         =
           {
              Loop Requester ,
              Console Requester ,
              Load Server ,
              Dump Server
           }

    To any future readers, I really don't know if the previous reply fixed
    the problem.  The system crashed, came back up and everything was
    correctly set (including the mop circuit functions) and working.
