vmsinstal

Hi

I got "SYSTEM-F-ACCVIO" when trying to upgrading the system. Saveset seems to be OK, a backup/list bar065.a/sav looks ok. Its possible to install it on another node.
Have tried with different accounts, have tried...everything? Anyone who could give me a hint? Thanks in advance.

Klaes-Goran,

try to enable SET VERIFY to find out, exactly which command is failing:

$ @sys$update:vmsinstal BAR065 SYS$MANAGER: OPTIONS D

I'd start even further back than Volker:

$ BACKUP/LIST BAR065.A/SAVE

See if the saveset is OK. Same for .B, .C etc... If the saveset is bad, try repairing it (FIXSAVESET.COM attached).

sorry, attachment didn't work... try again

RENAME it to .COM and execute it against your savesets.

Hi

Thanks for your answers! Since it's a 24*7 production environment I can't do anything more during the week, maybee next weekend. I have backup/list * on all savesets, they seems to be OK
Also, some HP guys in India are involved in this case, so.... lets wait and see.

Got a mail from HP explaing the solution.

"The problem was with a corrupt backupshr.exe file."

Adding it in case someone else get the same problem. Problem solved!
