SYMPTOMS

The ADDPARTNER option may not display all of its available information when an output file is created using the SNACFG /PRINT command.

In the output file, you may see line similar to the following:

APPCLLU LOCALLU

/ADDPARTNER:REMOTELU,#INTER,HOSTCONN




When multiple local Advanced Program-to-Program Communications (APPC) logical units (Lus) with the same alias name are configured on several SNA Servers within the same SNA subdomain, SNA Server uses the first instance of the local APPC LU alias it finds. In these cases, SNACFG fails to add the following instances of the partner APPC LUs when used to configure SNA Servers in unattended mode.

CAUSE

This problem appears since the Server name is not added to the output file. To support the multinode functionality introduced with SNA Server 4.0, the instance of the Node (SNA Server Service) needs to be added as well.

With the corrected version, the Server name and Node name are now added correctly.

RESOLUTION

SNA Server 3.0

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for SNA Server version 3.0. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

WORKAROUND

To work around the problem, you need to add the Server name and Node name in the output file as shown below:

APPCLLU LOCALLU Server\Node

/ADDPARTNER:REMOTELU,#INTER,HOSTCONN


STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SNA Server version 3.0, 3.0 Service Pack 1, 3.0 Service Pack 2, 3.0 Service Pack 3, 4.0, and 4.0 Service Pack 1. This problem was first corrected in SNA Server 3.0 Service Pack 4.
