SYSMAN and SYSTEM-F-NOSUCHOBJ

Mario Abruzzi — Sun, 07 Nov 2004 00:26:40 GMT

What does it mean when I set my environment in SYSMAN for several nodes in my VMS environment and ultimately receive the "-SYSTEM-F-NOSUCHOBJ, network object is unknown at remote node"? What object is unknown?

Mario,

SYSMAN uses the SMISERVER on the remote node. The SMISERVER process creates a DECnet object, also called SMISERVER. If the object is not present or disabled, SYSMAN will report NOSUCHOBJ.

On the target node, make sure SMISERVER is started:

$ @SYS$SYSTEM:STARTUP SMISERVER

Monitor the existance of the SMI process. One day you might need it ...

note SMISERVER is started by default on cluster nodes but not started by default on standalode nodes. I think its very handy and should be started on all nodes.
