SNAP1_FAILURE error

[sheevm]

Oracle people are running oracle express
DBA says they are getting socket error. They asked me to change tcpip_timeto_live parameter.
I changed it to 120000 using ndd -set and rebooted the machine. The value was 7200000. Same error is there.

HP/UX 11.00 L2000 machine.

Thanks

Raji,

To make the entry permanent,
set it again from command line. In addition, edit /etc/rc.config.d/nddconf to include this update. Next time, it will be there after you reboot.

Hai:

I have done this. But still getting the same error message. Any thoughts?

Thanks

# grep ERROR /etc/rc.log

Does the above command show you any error on ndd setting?

By the way, I do not think that parameter is valid. "ndd -h sup | grep live" does not show it and all tcp parameters should begin with tcp_.

Hi Raji,

That param is invalid.
What are they wanting to set?

If they want TCP TTL (Time To Live) - then use
tcp_ip_ttl

If they want to default it - then use
ip_def_ttl

If they want to adjust the interval for sending TCP keepalive probes - the use
tcp_keepalive_internal


Run ndd -h | more & look over those values. Remember that only the SUPPORTED values should be modified. You modify UNSUPPORTED values at your own risk.

HTH,
Jeff
