2150.0. "decnsetup V3.2B problems - no dns" by CHEFS::ELLERBY_J () Tue Mar 25 1997 15:28
Could anybody offer assistance with an installation/configuration
problem I'm having.
I'm running OSF V3.2G with DECnet OSI V3.2B plus the latest patch to
dnsclerk. I have been running quite happily with this setup for a couple
of weeks, but unfortunately we ran out of disk space over the last
week. This may have been the cause of my problems. I am no longer able to
restart DECnet since I have cleaned up the disk space.
Having shutdown decnet and then restarted decnet unsuccessfully I decided to
reconfigure, however, the decnetsetup advanced procedure failed when
trying to look at /var/dna/dna_version, it was an empty file. I am assuming
this file got corrupted somehow.
I corrected this file (recreated info inside), but I still hit failures
further into the setup/startup phase. At this time I decided it may be
best to simply deinstall and reinstall.
After reinstalling the startup phase of the setup procedure still
fails. It is unable to issue any ncl command relating to the node
entity without hanging. The following is a log extract using the
command sh -x decnetsetup advanced
The final command (an ncl rename) is when the startup hangs, forcing me to
CTRL-C. I have also tried a show node 0 stat and this command hangs
also. The rest of DECnet seems to have started fine (routing circuit,
adjacencies running etc) but dns is not coming up.
I haven't rebooted the system yet, but I will be doing so shortly.
Hopefully, the reboot will sort things out, but if not ???

| I've tried rebooting to no avail.
Here's a log of /sbin/init.d/decnetosi START
The startup seems to mess up on DNS. I assume I've trashed something on
the system somehwere, but if a setld -d followed by setld -l doesn't
fix it, where do I look next ? Any pointers as to what files I might be
missing ?

| From your log I notice that session is not starting succesfully.
That might be the next step to investigate. You might try
deleting the session data bases (/var/dna/session*) and then
rerunning decnetsetup. -- Vince

| 2150.3 | Session control not enabled | CHEFS::ELLERBY_J | | Tue Apr 01 1997 13:53 | 12 |
| I managed to crack the problem just before the holiday, and it was
indeed session control which wasn't coming up. I enabled session
control through NCL and all worked well.
It even survided a reboot and seperate decnetshutdown and startup. I
obviously corrupted something.
I'll take look at the /var/dna/session just for info.
Thanks,
Jed
