5396.0. "UCX$BIND looping..." by BACHUS::VANLOOCK (Patrick DTN 856-8648) Tue Apr 01 1997 12:05

   Hi,
   
   Problems with looping UCX$BIND ...
   
   ==> occured on primary server: 1x on 11-Mar,
                                  2x on 01-Apr,
               on secondary server: 1x on 01-Apr
   
   Primary: VMS Alpha 6.2 running UCX 4.1 ECO 4
   Secondary: VMS VAX 6.2 running UCX 4.1 ECO 4
   ==> all bind-related files: V4.1-12  16/23-jul-96
   (do not belong to same cluster)
   
   ECO 4 has been installed on 10-Feb-97, 
   before 10-Feb-97: UCX 4.1 ECO 2
   before 30-Dec-96: UCX 4.0 ECO ??
   
   Bind had been configured on both systems about a year ago,
   serving only one domain, no other servers configured in this domain,
   configuration files have not been modified since Nov 96...
   Bind has been running fine until 11-Mar...
   nothing special in ucx$bind_startup.log
   
   What could be the reason for UCX$BIND misbehaviour now??
   
   Regards,
   
   Patrick

Patrick,
       I've also seen this. I isolated the problem to an invalid entry in the 
bind database (sys$specific:[ucx$bind]). I would check your bind database 
files thoroughly to ensure that all entries including the root definitions 
are correct.

Geoff..
5396.2I'll check the DB'sBACHUS::VANLOOCKPatrick DTN 856-8648Thu Apr 03 1997 01:218
    Geoff,
    
    Thanks for your input: I will check the DB-files ... but as those
    files haven't been changed since 25-Nov-96 (=revised date),
    I supposed that this could NOT be the cause of the looping UCX$BIND.
    Anyway, I will check it out!
    
    Patrick
