| Daryl,
This is not the VCS conference, your customer should upgrade to
PCM, we neither have the time or resources to support VCS any more.
However, I suggest that if it was working and now isnt then SOMETHING
MUST have changed!!
Cheers,
Phil

Sorry,
I did try NOTED::VCS, however this advised me to use PCM. I was unable
to write to that conference.
Oh well
Cheers

| Daryl,
It advised you to use the PCM product, not the conference.

Hi Daryl,
Can you check the VCS logfiles. I mean in sys$manager you
have a VCS$IODL_OUTPUT.LOG (especially this one)
VCS$SCANNER_OUTPUT.LOG
VCS$ELOG_OUTPUT.LOG
VCS$ENS_OUTPUT.LOG
Another thing that you can do :
1)Stop VCS ($VCS SHUT)
2)Test all LTA ports (SET HOST/DTE LTAxxx). See if there is no
problem with one of them.
3)Check also if there aren't two decserver with the same address.
Start with this.
Rgds,
Geert

| 815.6 | More than likely you have a hung server port. | CSC32::BUTTERWORTH | Gun Control is a steady hand. | Thu Jun 15 1995 18:38 | 44 |
| More than likely the IODL is hanging on a connect to a server port.
There is either an existing connection or the port never completed
disconnect processing and is thus in a disconnecting state.
Do the following to find the prot we are hung up on:
$ ANA/SYSTEM
SDA> SET PROC VCS$IODL
SDA> SHO DEV/ADDRESS=@R5
It should print out the name of an LTA device. Jot this down. Get out
of SDA and do
MCR LATCP
LATCP> SHO PORT LTA-device-from-above
Note the server name and port number. You will need to connect to this
terminal server and find the port in question. If the customer did the
sensible thing then ports will be named according to the their actual
port number i.e., if the port is named VCS07 then the physical port is
port 7. SO you would do
Local> SHOW PORT 7
and verify the actual port name is correct. If it is then do
Local> SHOW PORT 7 STATUS
If the port shows connected it will tell you from where. See if there
is a connection from somewhere other than the VCS engine. If there is
then someone grabbed the port for another purpose. If there is no
conencttion and the port is in say disconnecting state then do
Local> LOGOUT PORT 7
Bearin mind that most of the commands above are priviledged so your
customer needs to know the priv'd password for the server and turn on
priv's via
Local> SET PRIV
Regards,
Dan
in a disconencting state. If
