2671.0. "Urgent help for ALL-IN-1 RELINK" by HGOV05::WILSONPOON () Sat May 10 1997 17:34

    We are now doing VMS upgrade from V5.5-2 to V6.1. After the upgrade, we
    are doing ALL-IN-1 RELINK. The RELINK process already runs for an hour.
    Is this normal? how long would it take for the RELINK process for the
    following system configuration.
    
    3 node cluster, each with 512 Mb memory,
    It has 5 mail area each with about 500000 block share area size.
    It has about 10 disk for ALL-IN-1 data.
    
    We have try RELINK before on testing system and it took only a while.
    
    Thanks for your earliest attention.

2671.2hanging relinkIOSG::BURTONIOSG - SEI CMM level 3Sat May 10 1997 18:4519
    Wilson,
    
    	The relink time shouldn't be nearly as much as an hour, although the
    actual time will depend on the model of CPU, speed and fragmentation of
    disks and other system activity.   When the link doesn't complete it 
    usually indicates the link cannot find an object file or other file.  To 
    find which file is missing define the symbol a1$debug to "True" before 
    running the link.  This turns DCL verify on for the link, which causes the 
    linker options file to be displayed as it is processed.  The missing file 
    is then either the last file displayed when the link hangs, or the next
    one in the options file (OA$BUILD:A1LINK.OPT).
    
    	The Command procedure you should run to do the relink is A1LNKDRV.COM. 
    This calls A1LINK.COM.
    
    Hope this helps.
    
    Martin.
2671.3Problem fixedHGOV05::WILSONPOONSun May 11 1997 09:016
    Thanks. Problem fixed after knowing that the system disk is full.
    Setting a1$debug to "True" is a good way to do the diagnosis. My second
    run just takes a minute.
