(858)-581-9668 ---------------------------- Top of message ---------------------------- I am having some strange issues with the Web Admin interface after upgrading to 4.2.3.0 from 4.2.2.13. I did not do ann UPGRADEDB based on message I saw here that I did not need to do this since I had already done it for the 4.2.2.13 level. Yes, I did the /RUNFILE DD:IDL. In fact, I just did it again to see if I missed something from the original run. Yes, I checked that I am pointing to the correct datasets. What I am seeing is stuff like this when I query a Client Node: Client Nodes : VCUNET CMSERVER%6C4BVCU%6C4BEDU No objects found It won't show me filespace information nor correct client information. -----------------------------------------------------------------------`
