SYMPTOMS
When a remote node sends SNA Server an Attach (FMH-5) for conversation, the Receive_Allocate and the Get_TP_Properties complete successfully, but the field containing the Local LU contains the Partner LU name. This causes the Get_TP_Properties to return the wrong status for this LU.



CAUSE
The APPC library extracts the Local Fully Qualified (FQ) LU name from the Logical-Unit-of-Work-Identifier (LUWID) in the Attach (FMH-5), rather than using a stored copy of the Local LU Name and Network name to reconstruct the Fully Qualified (FQ) LU name. While this works correctly for conversations started locally, it does not work for remotely initiated conversations where the LUWID contains the partner Fully Qualified (FQ) LU name.



RESOLUTION
A fix is available to correct this problem.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 3.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
