| 1622.1 | No qualifiers necessary for MOP load | ROGER::GAUDET | Because the Earth is 2/3 water | Thu Oct 27 1994 11:25 | 18 |
| A couple of things.
First, you do not need the /FORCE and /PASS qualifiers when doing a MOP load.
These are only necessary when updating using TFTP. I am not sure what DECndu
does if you specify these qualifiers when doing a MOP load, but based on the
results you posted I suspect that they don't work well together. Use the
following command line for your V1.1 DECagents:
$ download load <Ethernet_Address> denma021.sys
Second, what you saw when trying the TFTP load is pretty much what I would
expect. The SNMP set and get requests that DECndu generates during a TFTP load
will all fail. However, I think DECndu gets confused and "claims" that the load
is in progress (even though it really isn't).
Try the above command and see if that fixes your problem.

| 1622.2 | Had to Replace DENMA | SVCVAX::GAMBARDELLA | Gamby Gumba | Wed Nov 16 1994 14:18 | 14 |
| RE: .1
Thanks for your suggestion, but I never got a chance to try it. The customer
played around with it after I left and somehow caused that DENMA to fail its
self test. I replaced that DENMA with one from stock and the replacement
one came in at V2.1.3. Now he wants all his DENMAs replaced, because of this
the project is on hold until we straighten out this DENMA issue.
If/when I get the go ahead to try again, I'll let you know if your suggestion
works.
Thanks...

| 1622.3 | DENMA upgrade problem any version. | GIDDAY::DANIEL | | Thu Mar 30 1995 02:26 | 41 |
| I have problems upgrading Decagent 90s either through TFTP or MOP from
any version. Customer tried V1.1 & V2.0 & H/W versions B01, D01 & D02.
1. TFTP upgrade expects the file DENMA.NDU_SCRIPT which I could not find
anywhere including ftp.digital.com, CDROM & TIMA. Can you please post
a copy of that file here.
2. "download sho dev 08-00-2b-94-c7-b9" gives the following error.
(c) Digital Equipment Corporation. 1993. All Rights Reserved.
%NDU-E-READ_DEVICE, error during read device
%NDU-E-NORESP_ERR, no response from target
%NONAME-E-NOMSG, Message number 00000002
"download load 08-00-2b-94-c7-b9 mom$load:denma021.sys"
gives the same message.

%NDU-E-READ_DEVICE, error during read device
%NDU-E-NORESP_ERR, no response from target
%NONAME-E-NOMSG, Message number 00000002
I have tried this both in the Dechub900 & standalone.
The only thing that works is
"download sho dev 16.153.32.215"

| 1622.4 | Once again, it's all documented | ROGER::GAUDET | Because the Earth is 2/3 water | Thu Mar 30 1995 08:39 | 18 |
| DENMA.NDU_SCRIPT is provided in the distribution saveset (DENMA021.A for OpenVMS
and denma210.tar for ULTRIX). If your customer received an official
distribution kit through SSB for the DECagent 90 firmware, then they have this
file. The documentation is quite clear on this. Read the release notes.
Everything you need is online at NETCAD::PROJ$722:[ONEHUB.RELEASE.DENMA.V2.1].
As for the DOWNLOAD SHOW command, using a MAC address causes NDU to issue an
RBMS SHOW DEVICE command which the DECagent 90 does not support. You can,
however, cause a MOP load of a DECagent 90 by using the /NOMANAGEMENT qualifier
with the MAC address:
$ DOWNLOAD LOAD /NOMANAGEMENT <MAC_address> <file_name>
This will only work if your DECagent 90 is running at least V1.1 firmware. See
the release notes for details on how to load a DECagent 90 running V1.0.

| 1622.5 | One of those days, I suppose! | GIDDAY::DANIEL | | Thu Mar 30 1995 12:01 | 13 |
| Roger,
Thank you for the prompt reply.
My profuse aplogies for my oversight. I did unpack the saveset & got the
denma021.sys & the rest of the files. I even read the release notes!
I suppose it is one of those days!
God bless.
Daniel.

| 1622.6 | Save some time ... | ROGER::GAUDET | Because the Earth is 2/3 water | Thu Mar 30 1995 14:00 | 11 |
| No problem Daniel, we all have those kind of days.
You might want to save yourself a step (merging the DENMA.NDU_SCRIPT file) by
just copying the following file to your SYS$SYSTEM directory:
NETCAD::PROJ$722:[ONEHUB.RELEASE.FIRMWARE.V1_1.VMS]NDU$SDDF.STP
This file already has the DENMA.NDU_SCRIPT merged into it and a couple of minor
identification fixes for some of the modules which NDU can load.
