The Question is:
Have setup an NFS device where the UNIX node is serving the device to the VMS
node I can create files on that device but when we run a powerhouse program
which creates the file using powerhouse it comes up with the following message:
Executing request TIMESHEET_EQUAL_ROU ...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Data access error. (VP_OR_HEADER) [1]
File: VP_OR_HEADER_GST
Action Taken: Run terminated.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
%RMS-F-WER, file write error
File: VP_OR_HEADER
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
%SYSTEM-E-UNSUPPORTED, unsupported operation or function
File: VP_OR_HEADER
The Answer is :
So the Powerhouse application is running on OpenVMS, but is reporting
errors and is not functioning as expected when the target disk is
remote-mounted via NFS?
The most obvious immediate solution: don't do that.
Since that answer is unlikely acceptable, you will need to contact
the support organizations for Powerhouse and for HP TCP/IP Services
-- expect to be asked to upgrade, as the TCP/IP release that is
current as of this writing is V5.3, the V5.0A release is somewhat
dated -- and approach this through formal support channels. (The
resolution of this could potentially require a non-trivial research
effort.)
If you wish to see what RMS operation is failing, you might well
be able to spot it using the (undocumented; CMEXEC or CMKRNL
required) commands SET WATCH/CLASS=ALL FILE and /CLASS=NONE.
These commands can be invoked on OpenVMS, and might be able to
show what operation(s) are failing.
There are applications which are incompatible with NFS-served
disks. This may well be one. (The organization supporting
Powerhouse may be familiar with the file write error seen here
with this NFS volume, or this may be a new or previously unseen
problem. Further, the organization supporting Powerhouse will
know if the package is expected to operate on an NFS volume.)
