There is nothing quite so pitiful as a virtual memory system starved for physical memory. Data sizes in the Alpha are the same but the executable code is substantially larger. No experience with Itanic but if you need twice as much RAM on Itanic as on Alpha I'd suggest a minimum of six to eight times what you would use on a VAX. Try not to get into a position where you have to trade-in or throw away your original memory because you have no free slots left. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2008 17:27:35 +0000 From: "Main, Kerry" Subject: RE: RX3600 and VMS 8.3 Message-ID: > -----Original Message----- > From: Chuck Aaron [mailto:caaron@ceris.purdue.edu] > Sent: March 24, 2008 10:52 AM > To: Info-VAX@Mvb.Saic.Com > Subject: RX3600 and VMS 8.3 > > If anyone is running the RX3660 or better server with VMS 8.3, can you > share > your experience and comments.

This did confirm for one of the disks that I suspected was good. You log errors during the merge, but never again. ANAL/DISK/SHAD runs clean. On a disk that I suspected of having some bad blocks (the one that probably started this whole problem), I still get a parity errors on the ANAL/DISK/SHAD. This seems to be an ironic situation. If I were not shadowing, I could run the bad block utility on this disk and then use it without problems. But in a shadow set, it will always a parity error for ANA/DISK/SHAD. I could use it, but with spurious errors being reported for every full merge and spurious failure on every run of ANAL/DISK/SHAD. I have a good disk to replace this bad one, but I wonder if there is some way around this, so I could use this disk without all the spurious error reports. I might want to keep the disk, it just has a few bad blocks. > > > I forgot about that. =A0If they're > > reported by $ ANAL/DISK/SHADOW, I guess I don't know. > > | ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2008 10:29:25 -0600 From: Keith Parris Subject: Re: Shadow set problem finally solved Message-ID: George Cornelius wrote: > If that is the case, the solution is to overwrite the block in question. This was exactly the right answer. But folks were making the OP work far too hard in the solutions proposed here. You can overwrite unallocated blocks on the disk (including the ones with forced-error flags set on them) by simply writing a temporary file that takes up all the remaining space on the disk.

After writing the target data, we will re-read the source data again and then compare it with the target data.

If you use kermit or FTP, both have a text mode which should automatically convert the files from the vms native format to Microsoft's chosen/proprietary text file format. ZIP on VMS (assuming you have a recent enough version, although I doubt it would run on 5.5) should also be able to pack a gazillion text files in a platform neutral text file format and then the ZIP on Windows should unpack it to the Virus operating systems's native text file format.

FTP MGET in TEXT mode should do just fine Standard Windows tools are not smart enough to read OpenVMS files The 20 years old OpenVMS version you use does have the smarts to create a file suitable for Windoze usage. You could write a quick DCL script to convert each file to STREAM-CR-LF format before transferring.

VMS stores text files as There is not normally any carriage return or linefeed at the end of a line. Carriage control, if needed, is added when the files are displayed by "PRINT" or "TYPE". If you use FTP to copy the files, as text files, the receiving end will add the appropriate carriage control; e.g. Windoze will append , Unix will append , etc. If you copy as binary, files will be recreated, bit for bit, on the receiving end. Another VMS system would prepend the character count! If you copy your files to a CD or a floppy disk, they will be left in whatever format VMS stored them in. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2008 09:05:39 -0500 (CDT) From: sms@antinode.org (Steven M.

I'd probably try Zip and UnZip, which can normally do the required format conversion, alyhough that may depend on the unzip program you use on the destination side. (Info-ZIP UnZip should do it.)
