Wierd messages at boot

[Fredrik.eriksson]

Hi all :)

I have these somewhat wierd messages that doesn't really make any sense to me in my operator.log from the boot sequence.

%%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 5-JUN-2009 18:19:34.09 %%%%%%%%%%
Message from user SYSTEM on NODE1
RP: lp

%%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 5-JUN-2009 18:19:34.09 %%%%%%%%%%
Message from user SYSTEM on NODE1
SD: TCPIP$LPD_SPOOL

%%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 5-JUN-2009 18:19:34.09 %%%%%%%%%%
Message from user SYSTEM on NODE1
BP: TCPIP$LPD_QUEUE

%%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 5-JUN-2009 18:19:34.09 %%%%%%%%%%
Message from user SYSTEM on NODE1
PA: FALSE

%%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 5-JUN-2009 18:19:34.09 %%%%%%%%%%
Message from user SYSTEM on NODE1
ND: FALSE

%%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 5-JUN-2009 18:19:34.09 %%%%%%%%%%
Message from user SYSTEM on NODE1
CR: FALSE

%%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 5-JUN-2009 18:19:34.09 %%%%%%%%%%
Message from user SYSTEM on NODE1
SN: FALSE

Does this tell anyone anything?

hi,

they look like entries from your ucx/tcpip$printcap.dat displayed during lpd startup.

fwiw

[Jim_McKinney]

Found in the printcap file...

RP=remote printer
SD=spool directory
BP=banner program
PA=passall flag
ND=nodelete flag
CR=carriage return flag
SN=

[Fredrik.eriksson]

So this basiclly just tells me what settings is set in the printcap file?

Best regards

I tried it with all LPD log options enabled. Got several messages but not yours. VMS 7.3, tcp 5.3 eco 2.

Any (undocumented) LPD logicals active ?

[Wim Van den Wyngaert]

But of course it's not the service LPD that doing it. The outbound symbiont is doing it. Found the messages in tcpip$lpd_shr.exe.

Activated by TCPIP$LPD_RECV_DEBUG ?

Tried with value 1 but no success.

[Fredrik.eriksson]

This is the only logical defined containting "lpd" i have.
"TCPIP$LPD_ROOT" = "DSA0:[SYS1.TCPIP$LPD.]"

This must be something that is set somewhere else :/

Thank you for all the replies so far :)

Did you try sh log *lpd*/tab=* ?
It could be given local to the process.

hi,

if there is nothing directly in systartup_vms.com do you call any other site-specific routines during startup that are doing things with print queue setup ?

fwiw
