Re: LAT device delete error

Sanjay,

the Owner PID shown by SDA: 000101AA is an IPID (internal PID) value, not a EPID (external PID) !

To find the process, you need to use

SDA> SHOW PROC/IND=000101AA

$ SHOW PROC/ID=000101AA will fail to find that process.

Re: LAT device delete error

Attached here is an Apple iWork Pages text conversion of that Microsoft Word document that was attached earlier here, for the folks here that don't or can't or won't use the Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office proprietary formats.

(Sanjay: the harder it is for folks to read your questions, the longer it takes to get an answer to your questions. Most everybody can read plan text or -- as Windows tends to call it, MS-DOS-style -- plain text files. Many of us don't have Microsoft Office, or the Windows-based Office viewing tools, or the catdoc tool or such. Or iWork, in my case.)

As for the error, the following is from the help text for LATCP: "Use the SHOW PORT command for a list of the application ports and the dedicated ports that are defined for your service node. You cannot use the DELETE PORT command to delete an interactive or forward LAT port."

Your port is marked as a forward port.

Unforward/Unqueue the port, using LATCP. If you want to explore this area, you can use something like the following to explore the contents of the LATCP help file:

$ lib/extr=* sys$help:latcp$help.hlb/out=x.x
$ sear x.x forward,queue/window=21

I'd expect to have to dequeue the port before deleting it, minimally.
