RE: 51D's external hard disks
Hello Aaah just as I suspected. You have remnants of disk mirroring left over when you installed on the external disk drive. I am going to guess that the Mirroring database for the external 4 GB drive 'knows' that it is the first disk controller (i.e. c0t0d0) when in fact it is on the second controller (c1t0d0) and the internal IDE drive is on the first controller. There are two options here - both of which are not supported by Foxboro / Invensys. If you want to go down that path then we best take this discussion off the list. I don't recall if you said why you are trying to do this ? The 51D family was supposed to use the internal drive. The marketing thinking was that if you wanted features associated with external SCSI drives then you would select the 51E family.

Re: File system error massege
Hello I guess the obvious answer is that the disk drive is full in one of the partitions. Type df -kF ufs and see which is at 100%. My guess would be the /var partition. If so, go to the /var/tmp directory and see what is growing absurdly. Thats a start.

In addition we have one set of 2x 2.1GB disks spare; these are exchanged for safekeeping as a backup. Some time ago one of the disks (on ESP1) gave us problems while doing the mirroring process. (Error messages listed below) d5: d15: 6478240ESP0 / SCSI3 Okay d25: 6478240ESP1 / SCSI3 Nds_Maint I have tried to replace the disk several times(the disk has been given SCSI address 2 and 3 on ESP1). I have tried HH835, but I'm still having the same problem. The exchange disk is a 18.2GB 1rpm Disk UniPack purchased from a local vendor. The disk has been labeled and made to look like 2.1GB as prescribed by Foxboro. Foxboro recommends us at this time to exchange the 3 sets of concatenated disks with one single disk with a larger size. Has anyone solved a similar problem? Thanks for any response.

RE: How do I turn off swap
Hello While Alex is right that having more memory is almost always a good thing, I am confused by the results stated. Unused processes always get paged out of main memory (a good thing). Disk thrashing after this point points to applications that are memory intensive. Vanilla I/A ships with plenty of memory resources to its job under normal circumstances. When adding third party applications, you will need to do some basic system administration to verify the system. Alex pointed you at vmstat to monitor disk i/o. Another command that I use a lot is swap -s which gives the total virtual memory usage. Doing this before and after an application startup gives a relative feel for the cost of that application. Can you run this command and tell us what your situation is ? If you take away swap space and you are have quieted down the disk drive then I suggest that you may have an application (or several) that are no longer running that you may not know about. Offline, Alex suggests that you run a ps command before and after the removal of swap space to verify no lost processes. Another reason for excess disk traffic are applications that write to /tmp (logfiles etc.). You may wish to do a ls -lart /tmp to see what the newest files are in this directory and maybe by the name determine the application that is using this. Three words: Buy more RAM. If vmstat reports lots of page faults, you need more RAM. snip I have processes running on a AW51E (Ultra 30) that drop into virtual memory several days after boot. They then consume the machine with lots of disk thrashing. I've experimented with vfstab and /sbin/swapadd, and eliminated swap. This stops the disk thrashing, but it left me with a /tmp directory that is small and completely memory-based. I'm wondering if I should further modify /etc/vfstab, and mount /tmp to /dev/md/dsk/d1? If anyone has more expert knowledge on how to go about this, I'd appreciate the help. _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Re: AW51 crash dump files
Hello If we assume that you have a Foxboro support contract, then they may wish to retrieve these files before you delete them. There is a shell script command called iscda that can be run on these to generate a report that may be useful. Use as follows: iscda unix.0 vmcore.0 log.0 Now you can examine log.0 for all sorts of interesting data. (if you are an O.S. person :-) ). I would not expect to get these files at all so the fact that you did get them may be of interest to your Foxboro support people. Warren When the AW51 spontaneously crashes, 2 files are created in the directory /opt/crash/AWNAME - unix.n and vmcore.n where n is a number from 0 on up . 1. Will these files tell me what caused the AW to crash? How do I view that information? 2. After backing these files to tape, may I delete them? The System Administration Guide points me to the files, but does not specifically direct me to remove them. 3.

Re: 2nd ethernet ports and Routing....

So I added a script to /etc/fox/userapps.dat called 'routing.scr' which looked like this: #!/bin/sh # # We have to force the netmask like this because at boot time # FOXBORO is resetting it to class B subnet # This is ok for the NODE BUS but not for the second ethernet card. # # There are two 152.153.x.x networks separated by 10.202.x.x # who need to be able to talk to each other # 152.153.16.x on the foxboro side of the router and # 152.153.the.rest on the other side of 10.202.x.x # # This script is called from /etc/fox/user_apps.dat # # 17-April-2000 F.Schouten. # ifconfig le1 netmask 255.255.255.0 --- This list is neither sponsored nor endorsed by the Foxboro Company.

Re: AW51E Lockup (HELP!!!!!!)
