Fwd: Re: [HECnet] More clustering fun

Peter, I should be able to get round to testing this today. Just currently moving the system disk on the alpha from ODS-5 to OSD-2 so that we've got half a chance of clustering the VAX properly...

If I may I'll post the contents of the MODPARAMS.DAT and PARAMS.DAT to see if anyone recognises something bad. So, how did you get from where you were to where you are now? Have you recreated the system disk and got back to the point before you did the AUTOGEN? If so and you suspect AUTOGEN is going to mess things up again, then I suggest you record the system parameters before and after the AUTOGEN (AUTOGEN without the shutdown and reboot phases, that is) and compare them. Something like this: $ DEFINE /USER SYS$OUTPUT BEFORE.TXT $ MCR SYSGEN SHOW /ALL SHOW /SPECIAL ^Z $ $ @SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN SAVPARAMS SETPARAMS NOFEEDBACK $ $ DEFINE /USER SYS$OUTPUT AFTER.TXT $ MCR SYSGEN SHOW /ALL SHOW /SPECIAL ^Z $ $ DIFF BEFORE.TXT AFTER.TXT $ If everything looks ok, you can then reboot to get the new sysgen parameters take effect. If not, you have an opportunity to fix things before the shutdown and reboot makes things much more difficult to fix. Regards, Peter Coghlan.
