rpc.ttdbserverd

[Shakeel Ahmad_2]

Hi,

I am a newbie to HP-UX and to this forum.

I am getting the following messages in my system log for the last couple of days:

libtt[7087]: clnt_create for rpc.ttdbserverd on libtt[7087]: clnt_create for rpc.ttdbserverd on above message repeats 29 times

I am wondering if anyone could tell me what is meant by the above messages?

Thanks,

Shakeel

I am sorry to mixup the lines of the messages. Here are the messages which I am getting in the syslog:

libtt[7087]: clnt_create for rpc.ttdbserverd on libtt[7087]: clnt_create for rpc.ttdbserverd on above message repeats 29 times

Thanks in advance for any help.

Oops! the lines are again mixed up. Actaully, there is a backslash at the end of each line which is ecsaping the newline character at the end of the line.

libtt[7087]: clnt_create for rpc.ttdbserverd on '\'
libtt[7087]: clnt_create for rpc.ttdbserverd on '\'
above message repeats 29 times

Unfortuantly I'm out of exact answers today ;-) Generally I'd say these warnings can normally be ignored, however is that the full error ? nothing refering to rpc program not registered or UNKNOWN host ?

ps -ef ?? grep rpcd ? Is it or dced running at present ?

Are you certain hostname resolution or multiple copies of /etc/*netconf* aren't causing problems ? (depends on the above)

It may be an idea to get the latest CDE patches installed but
I doubt it will help.

How often does it occur ..timestamps and our any applications or user directories NFS mounted.

Personally I'd just modify /etc/syslog.conf to divert the warnings/errors elsewhere ...

unfortuantly tooltalk is a sun baby and how it actual all fits togehter is a bit of a black box.

Hi

if this is a few days then a reboot may fix it.

Do you normally run dce,if so then check if /opt/dce/sbin/rpcd is running ,if not, start it and see if it still happens.

Othertwise if the message is annoying you
reconfigure /etc/syslog.conf and redirect
it.

It is an info message

Thanks Alex and Steve for you replies. Here are the answers to your questions:

Alex:

This is the exact message which I am getting. There is no reference to the UNKNOWN host.

'ps -ef | grep rpcd' shows that /opt/dce/sbin/rpcd is running.

I have already installed PHSS_26495, but it didn't help.

The messages do not seem to be at regular interval. The last three messages were at 14:07 (yesterday) and 9:04 and 9:58 today.

Steve:

Actually, I updated my system a couple of days ago with the latest patch bundles (December 2002) alongwith PHSS_26495 (and its dependencies). So, I had to reboot the system many a times and the messages didn't go.

Yes, I am running /opt/dce/sbin/rpcd.

Note: I am running HP-UX 11.00 on a K460 server. I use Hummingbird Exceed to login to the server from a Windows XP machine.

Thanks again,

Shakeel

I'd ignore the messages then or divert them elsewhere ... I suspect no users have complained ?

[Shakeel Ahmad_2]

Alright, I will just ignore the messages.

Thanks a lot for your help.
