[HECnet] Satellite configuration/NCP crash

[Mark Wickens]

Guys,

I'm following the procedure in the Cluster manual, pp10-9, to configure a VAX satellite from an alpha boot node, and I'm getting a system crash.

My question is whether I need to run this procedure with the Alpha in standalone mode, or whether this is a situation requiring a patch, or whether I can get away with something different.

This is the first part of the procedure to enable the MOP server.
The second part is to configure the MOP service for the VAX satellite.

The Alpha is running OpenVMS 8.3

Thanks for the help, Mark.

The log is:

$$ mcr ncp
NCP>define circuit ewa-0 service enabled state on
NCP>set circuit ewa-0 state off
