Hi,
My customer is using VMS V5.5-2 and ALL-in-1 V3.0. The system usage
is very heavy and never been shutdown for a few months. The system is
clustered but ALL-IN-1 is running only in one node.
The system runs fine most of the time but it happened twice
recently that ALL-IN-1 users hang when they login to ALL-IN-1 at $.
VMS doesn't hang, neither do other applications eg RDB etc.
I have checked the system processes and found one process in MUTEX
state. Further analysis proved this process hung due to insufficient
BYTLM and this process was an ALL-IN-1 user who was trying to login to
ALL-IN-1 at DCL.
So, I did shutdown the ALL-IN-1 using the CMD>SHUTDOWN script and
after restarting ALL-IN-1, users still can't login to ALL-IN-1 as
their processes will hang every time they login to $allin1.
The only way out is to reboot the whole system. But, this customer
can't afford to reboot the system all the time.
Any suggestions ?
Regards,
Sow Wan

Hi,
Could it be the MUTEX process that held up some kind of exclusive
lock during its login and caused subsequent processes login hang ?
Any explanations on login locks or oa$fcv related ?
Thanks!

| 3987.3 | Corrupted WPSDEF.WPL & user.PST ? | ZPOVC::CHINGYUE | Thu Mar 24 1994 10:21 | 15 | |
Am not too sure if this helps...
One of my customer had a rather similar problem. Only processes calling
ALL-IN-1 IOS hangs while the rest runs perfectly alright. When these
processes hang, SH PROC/CONTI/ID=xxx says non-existence process but
SH SYS list them. STOP/ID says non-existence as well. Turning off DDS
doesn't help.
It was found later that whenver a particular user logs in to perform a
local print, the other process will hang. Replacing his WPSDEF.WPL and
user.PST solved the problem.
Hope the above helps.
