Re: [foxboro] Lock-up due to CSA server dying, QF1003660

Duc,

I'm sure that you have explained this ad nauseam, but what "locked up"?

Neither the DM nor FV are supposed to have CSA dependencies.

Subject: [foxboro] Lock-up due to CSA server dying, QF1003660

We recently experienced a problem with operator display stations locked
up due to an untimely death of the CSA_SERVER process (twice, actually).
There's a quick fix issued for a CAR for this condition, QF1003660
(http://ips.csc.invensys.com/content/qfhtm/qf1003660.htm).

The problem is, this QF is specifically for I/A v6.3 on Solaris.
Somebody else asked whether this QF can be installed on a 6.4 system,
and the answer was a guarded yes, with some hedging
(http://ips.csc.invensys.com/content/CARs/CusCars/IACars/sqlCARs/1004205
.htm).

Our system is at v6.2.1 Solaris. Is there a comparable QF for this
problem for 6.2.1 systems? I've searched the CSC web site, of course,
but did not find what I needed to know.

On another angle, the CSA server is running on our lone XP AW at I/A
V7.0, and has been running without any problem for nearly two years. Now
all of a sudden, the CSA_SERVER process died twice in two days. Well, it
appeared to have died. In haste, we didn't check to see if the
CSA_SERVER process was still running or not when all the lock-ups took
place.

I'd appreciate any information regarding this QF, or the CSA_SERVER
process dying.

Regards,

Duc
