sam -r disabled menu

Bryan D. Quinn — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 11:32:33 GMT

For the past two mornings my Operations menu keeps getting disabled in restricted SAM. My operators have a session open but when they go to open the second SAM session, they get a blank menu. When I go into sam -r, all of the functions have been disabled.

Any ideas on what could be causing this?

Thanks,

Shalom,

Someone hammered their configuration files.

Restore the configuration files or rebuild the functionality.

Its possible the problem was introduced by a patch.

Do the "what did we do lately" reality check to try and find the most likely cause and course of action.

Well, that is the weird thing. We have done nothing. The system has been stagnate for quite some time. We do a weekly reboot, that is about as exciting as it gets.

When you say the configuration files have been hammered. What configuration files are you speaking of?

thanks,
