2855.0. "Lazy server - doesn't wake up until 2nd message queued" by MIASYS::DLUGOSZ (My reality check just bounced) Mon Apr 21 1997 21:45

    We're seeing some strange problems here. We have been porting a
    large application from VAX to Alpha. The software was initially
    built on a single Alpha host and tested - all worked well. We
    were also using DmQ v3.2 on that host. 
    
    We moved the software to the customer's development cluster
    which is set up so that the clients are on one node and the 
    servers on another. Both are running 3.2B and all software was
    (I am promised) recompiled and relinked against 3.2B. 
    
    Message 1 is sent to a server. The server (which is sitting in
    PAMS_GET_MSGW) doesn't read the message. You can see it pending
    in the monitor. Message 2 is sent. The server reads and processes
    both messages.
    
    Has anybody run into something like this before? Why for would 
    the server not be awaken'd until the second message arrives?

2855.1Fixed with ECO 3250...KLOVIA::MICHELSENBEA/DEC MessageQ EngineeringTue Apr 22 1997 02:305
      This problem has been fixed with ECO 3250.  You can copy it from
    PAMSRC::DMQ$KITS:[DMQ32B.VMS.PATCHES]DMQ-V32B-AXP-3250.BCK.

2855.2A couple of followup questionsMIASYS::DLUGOSZMy reality check just bouncedTue Apr 22 1997 17:3414
    Marty,
    
    We're a little confused about prerequisites for the 3250 patch.
    We're seeing the described behavior so does this imply the kit
    they have installed already has patch 3240? 
    
    Also the instructions mention a file EXEC-V32B-AXP-3250.OBJ
    (substituting the x's). The kit contains EXEC-V32-AXP-3250.OBJ.
    Which file name should be used - or does it matter?
    
    Never have learned much about VMS....

	  V3.2B contains ECOs 3201-3246, therefore, the pre-requisite
	should have been stated as V3.2B.

	  Typo in the command procedure that created the patch files.
	The file should have been named EXEC-V32B-AXP-3250.OBJ.  In 
	other words, the file is correct only the name of it is slightly
	wrong.
