When I start up the decnet (start/network decnet) I get the error:
%NCP-W-INVPVA, Invalid parameter value , Physical Ethernet address
Line = LLA-0
%NCP-W-UNRCMP, Unrecognized component , Circuit
Circuit = LLA-0
Itanium 8.3
HP I64VMS DECNET_PHASE_IV V8.3
Any ideas?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Solutionprotocols (like IP)? Old DECnet expects to
set the "Physical Ethernet address" on the
interface according to the SCSSYSTEMID value,
and it can't do it if someone else is already
using the thing.
(Knowing nothing, I'd be a bit amazed if
Phase IV could cope with the LLA device, but
I've been amazed before.)

Re: Decnet phase IV with failover
You'll either need to stop all network protocols and restart beginning with DECnet or, reboot.
DECnet phase IV works very well with LAN failover, as does LAT and MOP. See the System Manager's Manual, volume 2 at http://h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/82FINAL/aa-pv5nj-tk/aa-pv5nj-tk.HTMl I have multiple systems running phase IV and LAN failover.

Re: Decnet phase IV with failover
DECnet Phase IV needs to change the Ethernet MAC address to the DECnet MAC address (aa-00-04-00-xx-xx). It can only do this, while no other application procotol is using the LAN interface.
Make sure to invoke @STARTNET before invoking TCPIP$STARTUP.

Re: Decnet phase IV with failover
Been too long since I had to setup a new system with phase IV I completely forgot about that.
Thanks guys for quick response. Now to play with the cables to make sure everything flip flops on the connects and that the software follows the links.
