Snacfg.exe /Addpartner Option Fails in SNA 3.0 SP1

Article ID: 170588

APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft SNA Server 4.0



This article was previously published under Q170588


SYMPTOMS

When you add a dependent LU 6.2 session to SNA Server using the Snacfg.exe command line utility using the /Addpartner option, the process appears to complete successfully. However, the following message appears when opening SNA Server Manager after adding the LU:

Deleting Unpartnered Dependent Lus.

The LU that was added using SNACFG does not appear in SNA Server Manager.

CAUSE

The /Addpartner option in the SNA Server 3.0 Service Pack 1 (SP1) version of Snacfg.exe fails to correctly partner the LU specified when writing to the Com.cfg. Errors in reading partnership records in the Com.cfg lead to problems when subsequent fields are read.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server 3.0 SP1. This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 3.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining this Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
