4588.2PATHWORKS32 conf lost or moved?VMSNET::DMCFARLANDstill TurboMom[tm]...Tue Apr 08 1997 11:1711
    Hello,
    
    Has the PATHWORKS32 conference been moved or something?  I tried to
    access JAMIN::PATHWORKS32 and saw no new notes.  A DIR revealed 0
    notes.  A search on anything showed no such notes.  
    
    Help, please!

    looking for pw32 in all the wrong places?
    
4588.3QUARK::LIONELFree advice is worth every centTue Apr 08 1997 14:135
It's another case of "someone created an empty file on top of the good one".
Use JAMIN::PATHWORKS32.NOTE;-1 until this is fixed.  I'll notify the system
manager.

It's fixed now (at least the bogus copy is gone, the system managers will
change the directory protection soon.)

4588.5JAMIN is apparently gone now...DAVIDF::FOXDavid B. Fox -- DTN 285-2091Tue May 20 1997 09:558
    Me thinks JAMIN is now gone, at least from LKG.  Node 4.350 doesn't
    respond and running DECNET_REGISTER on my Phase V system says that the
    nodesynonym and fullname no longer exists.
    
    Anyone know where PATHWORKS32 has moved to now?
    
    	Thanks!

4588.6LKG network problem?FUNYET::ANDERSONOpenVMS pays the billsTue May 20 1997 10:414
Something funny is happening at LKG.  JAMIN is unknown, and NOTED and RANGER are
unreachable.

4588.7Yup!CPEEDY::ANDERSONDave A.Tue May 20 1997 11:044
    There was reportedly a network problem overnight that had LKG cut off
    from the rest of the net.

I was just able to connect to NOTED.

And MCR NCP SHOW NODE JAMIN works now, and returns 4.350.

I can get to all of those nodes.  You might want to check your own node's data
base.  That's one of the possible solutions.

Don't need no steenkin' database when you got DECdns.  ;-)

Subj:	Update on Network problems in LKG 


	To update you on the Network problems in LKG, the Networks group has
told us the Core Router is down. This is a WAN (Wide Area Network) problem 
(affects LKG, TAY, and AKO), and not locally to LKG. They have been working on 
this problem since this morning and do not have an estimated time as to when 
this will be fixed...They did tell us to not anticipate the network being up any
time soon. At times it appears that the net is up, but does not stay up for
any long period of time. This is a part of the problem being worked. We will
keep you updated as we hear info.

Regards,

Nancy, Jay & Mark

    Wasn't the Internet designed to handle routing problems caused by pesky
    little things like nuclear wars?  Why is one router cutting off major
    portions of Digital's network?

4588.15because this failure scenario was designed in?MAZE::FUSCIDEC has it (on backorder) NOW!Wed May 21 1997 16:2513
re: .14

>Why is one router cutting off major portions of Digital's network?

Probably because that one router is the only path to that portion of our 
network.

And this is probably because someone thought they could save a few bucks 
off their budget by eliminating the backup paths we used to have.

Networks are only as good as they are designed to be.
