5421.0. "UCX V4.0-Eco1 : bind problems" by BACHUS::ROELANDTS (Wa d'es ma da ve ne stuut) Tue Apr 08 1997 08:36


   Hello,

   I have a customer running with UCX V4.0-ECO1 on an AXP with OVMS V6.2, he
   has a problem with the BIND SERVER process. The problem can be described as
   follows : this AXP is setup as a secondary server for several domains, when
   one of the primary servers is not available when a zone transfer is
   requested the log file gets filled with errors, and the errors still
   continue even after the primary server comes back. Notes 4812 and 3485 in
   this conference talk about something that could be related but it was 
   supposed to be fixed with OVMS 6.2. I did not ask the customer to install
   ECO5 of UCX V4.0 because I didn't find anything related to this problem
   in the release notes.

   The errors the customer sees are the following ones :

   UCX BIND Server Warning Message -- Mon Mar 31 15:06:18 1997
   zoneref: Masters for secondary zone zzz.xxx.de unreachable

   UCX BIND Server Error Message -- Mon Mar 31 16:00:50 1997
   xfer lib$spawn: 1c

   UCX BIND Server Error Message -- Mon Mar 31 16:00:54 1997
   named-xfer exit code 28

   UCX BIND Server Error Message -- Mon Mar 31 16:zz:nn 1997   
   xfer lib$spawn: 124

   out of a total of 350.674 records in the log file

        174.145 times the error code 124 appears
          1.144 times the error code  1c appears
             28 times the error code  28 appears

   Can someone help and tell me what could cause this problem, or is this
   problem another instance of the problem reported in note 3485 ?

   Thank you and regards

         Guy

Sounds likely. Also I find that the default way the UCX$BIND account is
setup has a *very* low pagefilequota (10240). Try bumping that up to say
40000. I have seen instances of this problem (error 1c, SYSTEM-F-EXQUOTA)
on secondary servers running on VMS V6.2 with very large databases.

    Thank you, but

    1. How do you translate error 1c in SYSTEM-F-EXQUOTA ?
    
    2. This system is secondary server for quite a lot of domains, so it
       could be that we are aslo in that situation.
    
    I'll try to raise the pagefilequota of the UCX$BIND account.
