4125.0. "Directory Entry Problem" by VMSNET::P_NUNEZ () Fri Jan 24 1997 16:41

    VMScluster of a VAX and AXP.  Customer indicates he has vms app that
    runs on VAX and creates new file every 30 seconds. Client is connected
    to share directory thru AXP and runs app that reads the file every 30
    seconds (with a 5 second backoff if the file is locked).  
    
    The VMS app creates a new file version each time, however the client
    continues to read version 1 only; it doesn't see newer versions.
    
    Is this behavior expected and can it be corrected by one or both of the
    pwrk.ini entries:
    
    [ods2]
    
    dir_cache_enable=0
    fid_cache_sync=0

4125.1...nevermindVMSNET::P_NUNEZFri Jan 24 1997 17:007
    Nevermind, (1) I was given bad info and (2) the question I asked is
    covered in the release notes (5.3.2 New Versions of OpenVMS Files Are
    Not Recognized by the PATHWORKS File Server).
    
    I'll be back Monday with the real problem...
