| 4352.3 | VTX IR IS working fine in NH | AIMHI::BILODEAU | | Mon Jan 08 1996 14:53 | 10 |

I work in MKO, and VTX IR has been working fine for us. You should
check with your sites IM&T people to find out why you VTX IR connection
is not working.
Regards,
Betty
PS: Yes, we're having blizzard conditions today..

| 4352.4 | VTX IR is available | PENUTS::MACCARDI | | Mon Jan 08 1996 15:23 | 9 |
|
I also checked and am able to access VTX IR on WWSMIR. The cluster
resides here in the DAS (Andover MA) facility and although I'm not
the system manager, I support the WWSMIR apllications.
As the previous note suggests, you should check with your local GPS or
IM&T support for assistance.

| I was in the IR on bot Saturday and Sunday.
On Saturday, I got information from the IR.
On Sunday, I could not connect to the IR from California, however, I sent host to a
system in Merrimeck and was able to access the IR from there. I extracted the
information locally and then DECnet copied it to california. Therefore, I don't believe
that it's the IR or WWSMIR, it must be a router or gateway from certain sites. I logged
a call on Sunday and was accessing it from MKO and not from California while talking to
the support person.

| 4352.6 | network outage... | FIREBL::LEEDS | From VAXinated to Alphaholic | Mon Jan 08 1996 17:41 | 8 |
| Apparently there is a major network outaage between our systems in the
Southwest and "certain" systems back east.. unfortunalty, our access to most
VTX applications (IR, ELF, etc) are affected by this.
Thanks for the replies.

| See 4010.41 and try that; if you're lucky it may get you around the problem
by virtue of routing things differently. (I.E., if you can get to the
www->VTX gateway, and it can get to IR, you'll be ok.)

network/VTX issues got fixed.

| If your on a large system, a VTX concentrator is often used. If that
is down, you will not be able to make connections either. This happens
from time to time on our mail systems.

| Concentrators won't work well with infobases that do download
PPT, DOC or other binary formats, or those that use SEARCHING.
There are over 150 vtx servers with DECnet, many of those
also have internet transport. There are up to 9 points of failure
allowed for any vtx connection, if one concentrator is loaded,
you may want to use another (and upgrade to servers, where possible).
