Hi,

I have had this ongoing problem with SGI now for over a year, and the
problem is still not fixed. I was wondering if anyone else uses SGI
Challenge L's, or O2's to connect through an FDDI ring to a DIGITAL
Concentrator. Basically, the problem is, that IRIX sends a Break Signal
to the redundant A port once every 50 seconds. This in turn triggers the
SNMP collector to send a trap to HP Openview, triggering an alarm. We
have DU, HP-UX, AIX, and IRIX, and IRIX is the only offending system,
however all SGI seem to be interested in is in blaming Digital's
Concentrators, and not in solving the problem. It is apparent that they
realise this is their problem, but they do not seem particuarly keen to
investigate, (Indeed all they have done, is to give us a Test O2
machine, and ask us to do the testing and debugging for them.). Does
anyone else use Digital Concentrators with SGI IRIX, and if so, have you
also experienced problems?.
