Common Problems and Actions
Invalid Software Installation
A software installation may be invalid. Run NMMAINT.PUB.SYS to
obtain a listing of version IDs for NMS and for all of the NMS
dependent subsystems.
Locate the overall version IDs for each subsystem. Check that these
subsystems are the correct version for operation with the associated
link.
MPE/iX Configuration Incorrect
Refer to System Startup, Configuration, and Shutdown (32650-90042)
to obtain an I/O listing of the system. Check that the drivers are
correctly configured.
Insufficient MPE/iX Resources
There may be insufficient MPE/iX resources, such as configured table
sizes. Refer to the recommendations for system tables provided in
System Startup, Configuration, and Shutdown. Reconfigure MPE/iX to
fix any problems found and restart the system.
Corrupt Configuration File
The configuration file is possibly corrupt. If the error persists, use
NMMGR to manually check the configuration file (if possible). Check to
see that all data records have been created. If bad records seem to be
localized to a particular item, delete that item and reconfigure it. If
necessary, RESTORE a known good backup copy of the file.
Corrupt Network Directory File
If the network directory file is open in NMMGR during a system failure,
starting the network transport with NETCONTROL START does not
recover the network directory file. Run NMMGR in maintenance mode
as follows:
:FILE NMMGRCMD=$STDINX
:RUN NMMGR.PUB.SYS
