Initialization Problem 7
The Gateway-ST boots, but the circuit remains in the on-starting state.
Solutions:
1.
Verify that your lines and modems are operating correctly. See
Initialization Problem 6 for information about correcting line and modem
problems.
2.
Enter the following SNANCP commands to show circuit status:
SNANCP> SHOW CIRCUIT
circuit-id
If the SHOW command indicates that the circuit was not defined, go to
step 3. If the circuit has been defined, go to step 4.
NOTE
Depending on the IBM system’s load, it can take several minutes for
the circuits to become active after you see the "initialization complete"
event.
3.
Check that you executed Part 2 of the SNACST$CONFIGURE procedure
and that the following file was created:
SYS$COMMON:[SNA$CSV]SNAGATEWAY_gateway-node-name_SNA.COM
Review the contents of the above file and check the SET CIRCUIT
command in the file. For information about the correct syntax of the
SNANCP SET CIRCUIT command, see the
DECnet SNA Gateway-CT and ST Management book.
4.
Check for SNAEVL event messages that indicate a problem with the
configuration file.
5.
Check that the circuit is assigned to a line. Use the following command:
SNANCP> SHOW CIRCUIT
circuit-id CHARACTERISTICS
If necessary, use the following commands to assign it.
SNANCP> SET CIRCUIT
circuit-id STATE OFF
SNANCP> SET CIRCUIT
circuit-id LINE line-id
SNANCP> SET CIRCUIT
circuit-id STATE ON
6.
If the SNANCP SHOW command shows that the circuit state is OFF, use
the following command to set the circuit state ON:
SNANCP> SET CIRCUIT
circuit-id STATE ON
