192.1 | X1.76 coming soon | KALI::GAUDET | | Tue Mar 23 1993 07:44 | 4 |
| Yes, wait for the next version. There were some serious problems with
X1.75, although it should have at least brought up the console screen.

192.2 | DECagent V1.1 module/port display problems | CGOS01::DMARLOWE | dsk dsk dsk (tsk tsk tsk) | Tue Apr 13 1993 15:09 | 63 |
|
I just installed the FT1.1 version for the DECagent. BL05.00 SW=X1.77
is the info from HUBWATCH for VMS when I click on the agent. There
seems to be a problem with this software. On both the OBM port,
(1) SHOW COMMUNITY and HUBWATCH VMS, repeater ports randomly light
up green indicating valid connections and then go out. The OBM
port and HUBWATCH show the same thing, ie. same ports are valid
or not valid. Not to mention entire repeaters come and go and the
DECbridge 90 also disappeared and came back (bottom of log below).
Also had problems upgrading the flash RAM thru CCI so used NCP trigger
and all was fine.

192.3 | Now it works. | CGOS01::DMARLOWE | dsk dsk dsk (tsk tsk tsk) | Wed Apr 14 1993 14:07 | 5 |
| I just did a reset to factory defaults via the OBM port. Added the
bridge module and for the last hour everything seems to be running fine
now. Go figure!

192.4 | Hmm ... more input, SVP | KALI::GAUDET | | Wed Apr 14 1993 21:01 | 10 |
| Gee Dave, that is strange. What version of DECagent firmware were you
running prior to installing X1.77? I am very interested in this, since
I have made it a *VERY* high priority to make sure that when the
customer upgrades their DECagent(s) from V1.0 to V1.1 they don't have
to do a reset to factory.
Any information you can provide about your configuration will be
helpful. Thanks.
...Roger... DECagent 90 devo.

192.5 | Maybe I was just unlucky? | CGOS01::DMARLOWE | dsk dsk dsk (tsk tsk tsk) | Thu Apr 15 1993 14:03 | 16 |
| Well I tried going back to V1.0 and then upgrading to V1.1 and
everything worked out great this time. Maybe the version that was
in flash when it was shipped was a very early V1.0??
first version (from net, may not have been what was in DECagent when
shipped):
HW=D01 ROM=BL05.00 SW=V1.0
upgrade to V1.1:
HW=D01 ROM=BL05.00 SW=X1.77
Call it a fluke and we'll call it square.

192.6 | Have X1.77 installed but the bridge is gone | MEO78A::BARNHOORN | Barney to his friends | Mon Apr 19 1993 23:43 | 13 |
|
I've been able to install X1.77 of the Agent software, it picked up most of the
orginal configuration, but for the decbridge 90.
When I do a show community, or show module slot 8 is empty.
If I try adding a bridge to slot 8, the agent returns with
"you cannot add another bridge to this community"
thanks
Mark.

192.7 | Reset might fix things up. | CGOS01::DMARLOWE | dsk dsk dsk (tsk tsk tsk) | Tue Apr 20 1993 11:58 | 5 |
| Try doing a reset to factory defaults and then entering the bridge
again. Maybe your problem is not too different from mine due to
an extremely old previous version of code.

192.8 | 8-slot becomes 16-slot | RDGENG::GREID | So Far. So Good, So What ? | Wed Apr 21 1993 04:07 | 7 |
| I had a similar problem with this only to find that what had been an
8-slot community had turned into a 16-slot community. You may want to
check using a console connection into the Agent and see if it now
thinks you have a 16-slot hub. I had to delete the hub and re-add it.

192.9 | reset for factory defaults worked, but is a pain.. | MEO78A::BARNHOORN | Barney to his friends | Mon Apr 26 1993 20:06 | 10 |
|
re .7 and .8
yes, resetting the agent to factory defaults then adding the bridge in again
worked, but that is a real pain.
thanks
Mark.
