4025.0. "DECnet autoconfig fails consistently." by KYOA::BOYLE (Dirty Jobs Done Dirt Cheap) Tue Nov 03 1992 19:01

    Has anyone heard of this problem?
    
    Vaxstation 4000/60
    VMS 5.5-1
    MCC 1.2
    
    When doing a DECnet Autoconfigure it goes through all nodes then fails
    (crashes) with a floating point divide by zero in routine
    load_process_map (?) before completing.  All data to that point is
    lost.  I am not sure of the exact procedure, although I can find out. 
    When I contacted Colorado they recommended making the customer's node a
    routing node.  I did it and it failed consistently at that location.
    
    If we can't get around this, we lose the sale 8^(....
    
    Any comments?

There is no answer yet.  I have forwarded your note to the maintainer

Hi all:

See Note: 3456.7 for the pointer of the patch ...

NOTE:  If it is for the customer, please contact Dave Hoag (TOOK::HOAG) for more 
information about using the patch formally - usually, patches are handled through 
the CSC.
