That should fix Jeremy's problem as well.
Hi,
There's a thread on comp.os.vms with the same OS version and error
message (but involving a different product) where an increase of
GH_EXEC_DATA was the cure.
Just FYI - I have no idea whether it'd help in your case.

Subject: MultiNet V5.1A won't start on OpenVMS IA64 V8.3
Hi,
I just upgraded my HP rx2600 server to OpenVMS I64 V8.3 and now 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
$ 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 Dan & Martin,
Post by Dan O'Reilly
That should fix Jeremy's problem as well.
And it did, many thanks!
I had these in my MODPARAMS.DAT already:

! MultiNet (as per email from PSC 31-Aug-2006 to all IA64 custome=
rs)
add_GH_EXEC_CODE =3D 1024
add_GH_EXEC_DATA =3D 128
add_GH_RES_CODE =3D 1024
add_GH_RES_DATA =3D 128

I increaded add_GH_EXEC_DATA to 256 and this has fixed MultiNet. So =
maybe
PSC should issue a revision to the above advice.

If anyone's interested, here's an extract from SHOW MEMORY:

VMS V8.3
Granularity Hint Regions (pages): Total Free In Use =
Released
Execlet code region 8192 4515 3677 =
0
Execlet data region 2048 923 1125 =
0
S0S1 Executive data region 1707 0 1707 =
0
S0S1 Resident image code region 8192 4225 3967 =
0
S0S1 Resident image data region 256 124 132 =
0

VMS V8.2-1
Granularity Hint Regions (pages): Total Free In Use =
Released
Execlet code region 8192 4602 3590 =
0
Execlet data region 1024 274 750 =
0
S0S1 Executive data region 1707 0 1707 =
0
S0S1 Resident image code region 8192 4225 3967 =
0
S0S1 Resident image data region 256 124 132 =
0

Which makes me think that GH_EXEC_DATA grows in 1024-page increments.=
I
think I need to study my VMS documentation library to get up to speed=
on
IA64 system tuning and management!

Regards,

=09Jeremy Begg
