Changing Domains in SNA Admin Gives Wrong Status Information (134906)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SNA Server 2.1, when used with:
- the operating system: Microsoft Windows NT
- Microsoft SNA Server 2.11, when used with:
- the operating system: Microsoft Windows NT
This article was previously published under Q134906 SYMPTOMS
The SNA Server Admin program allows an administrator to manage an entire
domain (or subdomain) of SNA Servers. The administrator can switch focus to
a different domain using the File / Select Domain option.
If there are connections of the same name configured within two different
SNA Server domains (or subdomains), SNA Admin may not display the correct
connection and LU status information when focusing on another domain.
CAUSE
The SNA Server Admin program caches status information on a connection in
order to optimize performance. However, if the administrator switches to
another domain which happens to have a connection configured with the same
name as a connection in the previous domain, SNA Admin does not properly
retrieve the updated status information from the new server, causing the
connection and LU status information to be incorrect.
RESOLUTION
Microsoft has updated the file SNAADMIN.EXE to correct this problem.
To work around this problem, the SNA Server 2.11 Admin must be stopped and
restarted.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server for Windows NT.
This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server for Windows NT, 2.11
