4250.0. "ACCVIO in FSUTIL <- PWVMS50E" by NETRIX::&quot;[email protected]&quot; (Adrian Moore) Mon Apr 07 1997 18:49

Hi,

This was a problem under PWVMS50DECO3 and is now a problem under
PWVMS50E for a customer. The client only uses the NetWare components in
production.

* Software: PATHWORKS V1.0-500E for OpenVMS (NetWare)
* Build:    12/04/96
* Type:     VAX
* Version:  V5.5-2H4
* Model:    VAX 4000-100A
* SMP:      No
* Node:     MFG1
* Cluster:  63 nodes

Apparently randomly (up to 7 days) the PathWORKS server crashes with an
access violation is FSUTIL. The dumps are all the same: ( complete dial in is
available at http://cscnw410.stl.dec.com/calls/q40814/970407_dialin.txt )

(IDENTIFIER=PCFS$UPDATE,OPTIONS=DEFAULT+HIDDEN+PROTECTED,ACCESS=READ+
          WRITE+EXECUTE+DELETE+CONTROL)

They are using Shelving software.

This looks like a bug due to the similar crashes over the last few months.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Thanks & regards,

Adrian,

You need:

PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (NetWare)  JAMIN::PATHWORKS_NETWARE

    RE: .0
    
    This sounds like a somewhat repeatable and serious problem.
    I'd recommend that you submit a CLD.
    
    (Meanwhile, we will look at the info you provided.  But, without
    a CLD we cannot commit time/resources.)
