Hi

Our production system is down, and Process software office is closed...

Multinet won't start on our Itanium RX-3600

We already raised GH_EXEC_DATA to 4096 and that doesn't help

Can someone help ?

Thanks

Sorry for cross-posting, don't know who can help me here...

It's ok now.

I have no idea what happened.

I had changed some SYSGEN parameters and executed autogen

I restored the IA64VMSSYS.OLD (to .PAR) and ran the autogen again (just like
the 1st time) and all was ok.
I just made sure about 1 parameter set specifically for Multinet
(GH_EXEC_DATA) , to have a MIN_ for it in MODPARAMS.DAT as it might be the
one that has not been modified properly using MODPARAMS before.
Can't remember the value of it when Multinet wouldn't start so can't confirm

All is fine now.

you need to increase

GH_EXEC_code as well (need someplace to load the multinet kernel)

Not sure that is the problem though

This is what I have in my modparams.dat

ADD_GH_EXEC_CODE=90 ! 83 ! MN 5.2
ADD_GH_EXEC_CODE=1024
MIN_GH_EXEC_CODE=4183 ! for MN v5.2
ADD_GH_EXEC_DATA=256 ! was 128 - needed for v8.3
ADD_GH_EXEC_DATA=472 ! added for MN 5.2
MIN_GH_EXEC_DATA=1496 ! for MN v5.2
ADD_GH_RES_CODE=1024
ADD_GH_RES_DATA=128

Maybe a bit overboard, but I had a similar incident. This is VMS/I64
v8.3

I don't know if it's related but our RX3600 was crashing with this
error:

Crash Time: 13-AUG-2007 14:56:18.04
Bugcheck Type: RESEXH, Resources exhausted, system shutting down
Node: CANTVI (Cluster)
CPU Type: HP rx3600 (1.40GHz/6.0MB)
VMS Version: V8.3
Current Process: TP_SERVER


The problem was fixed with these parameters:

MIN_FREELIM = 5200
MIN_BORROWLIM = 10400
MIN_FREEGOAL = 15700
MIN_GROWLIM = 21000

I mention this because I have never had to touch these parameters on
Alpha hardware
