hi,
I am experiencing a couple of problems with DSV11''s that i
could really use some help with.
The first one seems to be a bug in the SJDRIVER from the WAN
DRIVER KIT 1.1a. The problem presents itself in the SJDRIVER when the
LAPB protocol is used. So here goes....
/*
* Set an AST on the device
*/
dsv_desc->input_flg = NO
status =SYS$QIOW(0, /* THE EVENT FLAG */
dsv_desc->channel, /* THE CHANNEL */
IO$_SETCHAR|IO$M_CTRL|IO$M_ATTNAST /* Attention ast*/
&iosb, /* I/O STATUS BLOCK */
0,0, /* NO AST COMPLETION */
attention[fd % MAXIMUM_DSV11] /* A Unsolicited event
handler */
0, /* Ignored */
psl$c_user,0,0,0);
if (!STATUS_BAD(status))
status = iosb.cc;
if (STATUS_BAD(STATUS))
{
PutError(_FATAL_, 0, "ReadDSV - %s SYS$QIOW-
IO$_SETCHAR|IO$M_CRTL|IO$M_ATTNAST SS$_%s\n",dsv_desc->devname,ssname(status));
return (-1);
}
return (0);
It looks like when the attention AST completes VMS dies...(note that
both reading and writing work OK) The WAN driver is 1.1a and VMS is 5.3. What
follows is the entry in the error log of the crash....

Has anyone struck this problem?, if so, how was it overcome?
The other problem is with the same version of WAN driver and VMS..
We have two uVAX III's connected via a 64k circuit using decnet
over DDCMP. The default buffer size is 1498... the two machines are next
to each other, and the cct is provided by a V35 NULL MODEM.
Every few days (sometimes weeks) this line will go down, and upon investigation
the cause is that the dsv11 SJA0: AND SJA1: are offline (sho dev), ncp shows
the circuit as syncing... This failure occurs on both machines..
any assistance is welcome....
thanks and regards
