Pathworks error logged in PWRK$KNBDAEMON_server.LOG

[Paul Taylor_4]

Can anyone please explain what message logged in the above log is indicating I should do. Perhaps a PW reconfig or an adjustment to a VMS sysgen parameter?

At first glance I should say you're at the limit of your licenses, or you should set the number of concurent PWRK client connections to a higher value - so a PWRK cre-config. There is an entry to define the number of connections. I _think_ it will warn you to adjust system parameters if the current setting of these is inappropiate for your requested number.

You need execute @SYS$SYSTEM:PWRK$CONFIG to reajust system parameter for client connected. Notice after this procedure system can reboot.

Yes, run PWCONFIG (@SYS$UPDATE:PWRK$CONFIG.COM) and bump up the clien connections.

If by chance you think that the current number should be sufficent, it may not be exactyl what it seems. Unfortunately, many clients will consume two sessions when they connect to file/print shares (one as an anonymous user to IPC$ share and the other for their normal file/print share connections). So you may need to double the number of clients you have, then you need to pad the number to accomodate trusts, communication with other domain controllers, $ ADMIN (and/or remote administration) sessions.

Also, if you are running the license server, that consumes 20 slots all by itself!

Good luck.

Thanks for responses. The forum is proving to be a fantastic discovery for me. Great to have this amount of knowledge and experience so readily available to people when it's needed.
