PCM V1.6 / OpenVMS
A customer has reported the following problems:
- archiving seems to work, but finishes with a 'failed' message:
Starting archive procedure for system SYSTEM_1
Timefile  Pass 1: Working ... done.
Timefile  Pass 2: Working ... done.
Logfile   Pass 1: Working ... done.

I had them increase the processes BYTLM from 300,000 to 500,000 without getting
rid of the error.
- recently, they also observe ACCVIOs:

Should ECO 2 resolve this problem ?  Any other ideas what they could try ?
Thanks in advance,
Hans.

| .1� We are investigating the problem. We will send reply as soon as .1� possible. Any news on this one ? I'd really appreciate an answer so I can inform the customer about the current state of the problem. And I'll ask again: do you want/need an IPMT or is it sufficient for you to learn about the problem here ? I understand that IPMTs keep several people busy administering and tracking them, so I'd rather avoid one unless you require it. Thanks for your help, Hans. | |||||

I got the following problem report from a customer, This seems to
be the same kind of problem as described in the basenote. They got 
this problems since they switched from a VAX to an Alpha machine.

Customers problem report
-------------------------
Running the Console Manager V1.6-201 under OpenVMS 6.2, I have a job 
that archives the logfiles with the command
CONSOLE ARCHIVE/NOCONFIRM/BEFORE=-7-00 ALL
For over 50% of the systems (91 systems in total), I receive the 
following error messages
Starting archive procedure for system CHORUS2
Timefile  Pass 1: Working ... done.
Timefile  Pass 2: Working ... done.
Logfile   Pass 1: Working ... done.
Logfile   Pass 2: Working ... done.
Eventfile Pass 1: Working ... done.
Archive procedure for system CHORUS2 failed
This job runs at 06:00 every morning and also seems to have the effect 
of blocking/crashing the Console Ctrl processes.
Are there any known problems with this ARCHIVE command ?
