Hi,

I just upgraded my HP rx2600 server to OpenVMS I64 V8.3 and now MultiNet
won't start:

$ @SYS$SYSDEVICE:[MULTINET.CLIVE.MULTINET]START_MULTINET
%MULTINET-W-KRNNOTLOADED, kernel MULTINET_ip_DEVICE_CONFIG not loaded
%SYSTEM-F-INSFMEM, insufficient dynamic memory

Yet there is 8.5MB free Nonpaged Pool.

$ MU CHECK
MultiNet Checkout Utility V5.1(33)
%MNCHK-W-DBSECERR, error accessing global section NETWORK_DATABASE
-RMS-E-FNF, file not found
%MNCHK-F-NOKERNEL, MultiNet kernel check failed
-MNCHK-F-NONETIMG, could not open file MULTINET_NETWORK_IMAGE:
$ MU SHOW/VERS
Process Software MultiNet V5.1 Rev A-X, HP rx2600 (900MHz/1.5MB), OpenVMS I64 V8.3

I have re-installed MultiNet 5.1 and all the latest MultiNet patches and it
still won't start.

What can I do to fix this?

Thanks,

Jeremy Begg

Hi,
How much was the increase (for those without immediate access to
comp.os.vms)
For those with a web browser, the whole thread is accessible under
http://groups.google.de/group/comp.os.vms/browse_thread/thread/244d7e8ac12a2178/18efe44830a96f95?tvc=2#18efe44830a96f95

(sorry for wrapping) or http://tinyurl.com/yx4kye for short

Quoting from the thread:

"It was the size of the "Execlet Data region" (SYSGEN parameter
GH_EXEC_DATA). The default is 1024 and with all the software bits
loaded I was exceeding this. I bumped this value up and now everything
loads fine ( there's a total of 1043 pages in use now )."

cu,
Martin
