The Question is:
I have TCPIP V5.1 ECO 3, I'm mounting a unix disk on an ES40 and several
ForTran functions that work fine on native disks don't seem to work.
Specifically, when a file is opened with 'STATUS=SCRATCH' or closed with
'DISPOSITION=DELETE' the program bombs w
ith 'RMS-E-OPEFAI', 'RMS-E-CRE' and 'SYSTEM-E-UNSUPPORTED'. The trace back
seems to point to the ForTran Run Time Library, but I've tried several
versions of the ForRTL and the results are the same.
Also, unformatted write statements give 'FOR-F-INCRECLEN'.
Any suggestions?
The Answer is :
UNIX and NFS typically do not support OpenVMS file disposition semantics,
and this may be centrally involved in this situation -- NFS provides UNIX
block-level access to remote storage, and with the expected (minimal) UNIX
record and file semantics.
That said, without a reproducer and details of the NFS configuration, any
certainty in this answer is exceedingly difficult at best. The OpenVMS
Wizard would encourage you to contact the support center with a reproducer
and with details of the NFS configuration. Also please realize your TCP/IP
Services, OpenVMS Alpha and (likely; unspecified) Fortran versions are all
out-dated and are in need of upgrade(s) to more current versions.
