Issue/Introduction

How to eliminate repeated DC410004 V118 T36 DNS Bind Request Unit Failure status is : 1469 when NODE not available? Message repeats every 6 minutes.

 

Environment

Release:
Component: IDMS

Resolution

If the DIST Resource manager has an entry for a NODE and it is not up it tries to connect every 6 mins which causes the messages. The only way to get rid of the messages is to DELETE the entry via DCMT. In the below sample I did a DCMT DISPLAY DIST RM and 'SYSTEM80::DSI_CLI' was not available (*UNKNOWN),so every 6 Mins the DC410004 messages will be written. I do the DCMT VARY delete command and it will go away. If the need to go there comes up it will dynamically rebuild it and will stay there across cycles until you do the VARY DELETE again.

 DCMT DI DIST RM
   RM Name             Status      Startup time (UTC)          PndResync
   SYSTEM50::DSI_CLI   Open        2012-01-20-20.47.45.958951          0
   SYSTEM50::DSI_SRV   Open        2012-01-20-20.47.45.958951          0
   SYSTEM80::DSI_CLI   Initial     *Unknown                            0
 V100  ENTER NEXT TASK CODE:      CA IDMS release 17.0 tape GJH01M node
 SYSTEM10
 ***
 DCMT V DIST RM 'SYSTEM80::DSI_CLI' DELETE
 ***

Also note if you issue a VARY DELETE for a node that is active it is ignored until it is inactive.
