5191.0. "problem with more than 16 Pseudo-Intertfaces" by MUNICH::WOERLE () Tue Feb 04 1997 06:45
hello,
a customer has problems setting up more than 16 Pseudo-Interfaces.
UCX-Startup gives the error
%UCX-I-DEFINTE, Defining interfaces
%UCX-E-INVINTERNAM, Invalid interface name
-UCX-I-DRIVERQIO, Failure on Internet driver QIO
and not all Pseudo-interfaces are defined (only the half).
I have reproduced this problem on my maschine
(VAX-VMS V6.1, UCX 4.1 PAT 5).
At my side additionaly the 16.th Pseudo-Interface has the same IP-Address like
the first Pseudo-Interface.
1) Defining the Interfaces in the Configuration Database.

!! you can see that the QEA16 is before the QEA1 .

When shutting down and starting UCX there are the following errors :
.....
%UCX-I-SETCOMMP, Setting communication parameters
%UCX-I-DEFINTE, Defining interfaces
%UCX-E-INVINTERNAM, Invalid interface name
-UCX-I-DRIVERQIO, Failure on Internet driver QIO
-UCX-E-INVNETFLAG, Invalid interface flags
%UCX-E-INVINTERNAM, Invalid interface name
-UCX-I-DRIVERQIO, Failure on Internet driver QIO
-UCX-E-INVNETFLAG, Invalid interface flags
%UCX-E-INVINTERNAM, Invalid interface name
-UCX-I-DRIVERQIO, Failure on Internet driver QIO
....
4)
When you look in UCX you see only QEA1 and QEA10-QEA16 and QEA16 has the
same IP-Address like QEA1.

If you define your Pseudo-Interfaces manually all works fine
(f.e. after UCX startup : set interface QEAx/.... etc.)
Only defining these Pseudo-Interfaces permanent with
UCX> set CONFIG interface QEAx/.... and restart UCX gives this error.
And there is only this problem if you define more than 16 Interfaces (>=16).
Only defining QEA1 - QEA15 also the UCX> set CONFIG interface QEAx/...
and restart of UCX does work properly.
I know there was a problem defining PSEUDO-Interfaces in this way that
you cannot define QEA4-QEA8 and QEA12-QEA16 (I remember I have read this in
this conference but I cannot find this entry now).
But I think that this is already fixed in an previous ECO.
Any hints to my problem.
P.S. in UCX communiation the maximum interfaces are set to 40.
Many thanks in advance
