- Hello and Happy New Year!
-
- I hope this will be an easy question for some of you to answer.
- I'm no DECnet wiz, so the following is my perceptions of what is going
- on, please excuse me if I'm wrong.
-
- We have a LAVC running VMS 5.5-2. It is a single system disk cluster.
- The NCP database (for remote hosts) is stored in a common area
- SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]NETNODE_REMOTE.DAT
- so all the systems can share it. (Or so the VMS Networking (Vol 5A)
- manual claims on pg 5-42.)
-
- The problem I'm having is, whenever I update the database on one node in
- the cluster, the new information is not reflected on the other nodes.
- Even though they all use the same file to load their database.
-
- For example, here I change a node name to reflect a change in address:
-
- I make the changes on NODE1...
-
- NODE1$ MC NCP
- NCP> SHO NODE XYZ
- Node Volatile Summary as of 8-JAN-1993 13:14:27
-
- Node State Active Delay Circuit Next node
- Links
-
- 5.10 (XYZ) SVA-0 24.474
-
- NCP> CLEAR NODE XYZ ALL
- NCP> PURGE NODE XYZ ALL
- NCP> SET NODE XYZ 5.12
- NCP> DEF NODE XYZ 5.12
- NCP> SHO NODE XYZ
- Node Volatile Summary as of 8-JAN-1993 13:16:27
-
- Node State Active Delay Circuit Next node
- Links
-
- 5.12 (XYZ) SVA-0 24.474
-
-
- Now I go over to NODE2...
-
- NODE2$ MC NCP
- NCP> SHO NODE XYZ
- Node Volatile Summary as of 8-JAN-1993 13:18:27
-
- Node State Active Delay Circuit Next node
- Links
-
- 5.10 (XYZ) SVA-0 24.474
-
-
- Why is this happening?
- Any help would be appreciated.
