2248.0. "SLS TAPE CLEANUP PROBLEMS" by CHEFS::RAVEN () Mon Apr 28 1997 10:46

Help any clues .....My tapeclean does not seem to ne functioning as it should....


I have a two node Cluster - UKSLS - Alias
                            UKSLS1 - Node 1
                            UKSLS2 - Node 2
We run SLS V2.8A Server (Holds tape database) - VAX flavour.
DECNET Phase V OSI
VMS V6.2

From node 2 the following command is O.K...
UKSLS2>STORAGE SHOW VOL 2000

  Volume:      2000                 Owner:      WENDYS::SLS

P.S. .....I can set host from each node to all six variables....

E.G. From UKSLS1 .....SET HOST UKSLS
                      SET HOST UKSLS1
                      SET HOST UKSLS2
                      SET HOST DEC:.REO.UKSLS
                      etc etc 

All O.K. from both nodes

Sorry another P.S. ....I have added the nodes UKSLS ...UKSLS1 and UKSLS2 to 
the tapedatabase node access list via slsmgr.

STILL NO LUCK

2248.3Fixed itCHEFS::RAVENMon Apr 28 1997 11:597
Fixed it ....It appears that it was a NCL application startup script being
root specific. Thus the SLS database object was only being created on one node.
