Load Server Host Not Responding
The Remote Annex 2000 can boot from one of six types of hosts acting
as a load server host:
❑
Novell Server.
❑
A UNIX host on the local area network.
❑
A UNIX host at the end of a SLIP interface.
❑
Another Remote Annex 2000.
❑
A VAX VMS load server host.
❑
Any host (UNIX or non-UNIX) using tftp.
The following subsections discuss troubleshooting for some of these
load server hosts.
UNIX Host on the LAN
When troubleshooting a UNIX host on the LAN, make sure that:
❑
The host is booted and functioning properly.
❑
The host can communicate with other network nodes using
standard UNIX networking features and utilities.
❑
All Remote Annex 2000 software is installed properly on the
host (see the software installation notes that come with the
Remote Annex 2000 software release).
❑
The erpcd daemon or tftp server, which loads the operational
image to the Remote Annex 2000, is running.
