In a similar vein, one of our 968 has 'faulted'. Appears to be a drive. What would be the simplest procedure to recover from this? Assuming we can swap the faulty drive out, and our last full backup is still readable, how complicated is it likely to get?

Re: 73GB Disc on 5.5

I don't know if the system would recognize all 70-some gigabytes. It

was the maximum largest disc on 5.5. I'd think a reasonable alternative

73GB Disc on 5.5

Re: JetDirect server for LPQ 1200?

2012-05-10T14:18:53+00:00

Actually that would be preferable to use a 300X.

We have one on our LPQ 1500. The internal network port was rather flaky. So we put a JetDirect 300X on the parallel port.

JetDirect server for LPQ 1200?

2012-05-10T09:09:16-05:00

We need to find a network print server (like a JetDirect 300x, for

The 256 recs is the size that the new file was built to be and qedit at some
point figured that it could fit the records into the variable file with a
filesize of 256. In this case it cannot. I'm still surprised that versions
from 1985 still work. I don't have any versions previous to 3.4 to test so
it was certainly interesting to look at. [...]

Dear John,

I was going thru the source code and was trying to find ways to duplicate
and found the following in keep:

-6 << 3.4.: filesize was too small when lines were full >>

After that comment there is an adjustment to the filesize calculation.

I suspect that your var file is tightly packed and may have sequence
numbers. Peter's suggestion of texting unn may help. So it was an old bug
which was fixed, I cannot tell exactly the version it was fixed in sorry. [...]

John and Gilles,

Unfortunately, our bug database only goes back to 1988 and I have no record
of what the issue may have been. I am fairly certain this was an issue with
variable length files and the calculation on the filesize or a larger
blocksize was chosen and the file size was not adjusted. [...]

One of the columes is titled RSPFN. In this colum it has a S on some of the files.

I do not believe that Vision was the PA-RISC-based system, that was Spectrum.

Vision was never released, but I understand some of its technology did go into Spectrum.

Well hpux has "uname" - a similar concept - which we use (rather sadly)
to create and set HPSUSAN on our MPE emulator sitting on-top of hpux.

That's my recollection as well. HPSUSAN is originally an artifact of the PA-RISC-based systems.

Yep.

I've had several responses. It appears my behavior is normal if not using OpenView. It was my memory that was conflicting.

Have a minor problem with one DTC and two HP3000s.

They are both configured exactly the same in NMMGR. Same MAC address, same profile. Same card. Both HP3000s refer it by the same LDEV number 404. Device is spooled on both HP3000s. [...]

However only one HP3000 at-a-time prints to the LDEV.

This is different than in the past, both HP3000s had always been willing to print sharing the same DTC. [...]

Old-school 36Gb drives (LVD drives for DS2300 shelf)?

2012-05-01T18:31:15-04:00

Anyone happen to have some LDV UltraSCSI 36Gb drives handy, preferably
mounted for a HP DS2300 shelf?

Mapper identifies them as HP 36.4G MAS3367NC or HP 36.4G ST336753LC
(former P/N matches the one we're having issues with).

If so, please shoot me a quote for one (preferably two for a future
spare) offline.

Re: 12h autoraid

I went through the service manual on it, but I can't find anything specifying which is which. They do recommend replacement in pairs and only if one controller has good batteries.

The replacement recommendation is to shut down the 12H from the front panel, wait for it to shut down cleanly, then remove ONLY the controller with bad batteries and replace same. [...]

Re: 12h autoraid

2012-05-01T13:49:21-07:00

If one controller batteries are going dead, you need to change all of them.
There are two batteries per controller.
