1236.0. "SCHED_DECNET and OSI - revisited." by ATZIS1::PIEBER (chaos has many faces) Tue Apr 08 1997 11:24

    Hi folks,
    
    I peeked around in this conference, but the following does not seem to
    be covered up to a solution yet. 
    
    If installing the scheduler on an OSI system it will fail with a contraint 
    violation, which stems from number=0 for the ADRESSES field of the session 
    control application. This is already in this conference.
    
    I now checked 2.1B VAX and ALPHA as well as ECO9 for VAX and ALPHA kits
    for the startup procedure. 2.1B did not check for the VMS version, ECO9
    does. However, this has nothing got to do with the VMS version, as far
    as I could track this down, but simply fails, when a session control
    application with number=0 exists.
    
    I all instances I had, removing 'number=0' from the SCHEDULER startup, 
    removing the incomplete session control application SCHED_DECNET from
    NCL (no image and user name present) and restarting SCHEDULER succeeded.
    
    As far as I can tell checking for Phase 5 - as does base 2.1B - and 
    removing 'number=0' from the NCL command will do the trick for all VMS 
    versions.
    
    rgds,
    Ewald.
