OK. So on the node that only has an ARCNET, ‘netinfo -l’ will report that
the driver IS for logical network #4?
If so, then what you’re doing should, I thought, work and I don’t know what
else to suggest.
Is your ARCNET healthy? I.E. No duplicate node IDs, all cables are properly
terminated into a resister (I forget the value, but 93 ohms stick in my
mind)?
Are you able to make the ARCNET work if it is the only node configured as
LAN #1?

I have the netmap setup as Lan4 in both the nodes. I didn’t think of the
scenario where I could make it as lan #1 on one node which has just one
ARCNET…I will try it out too…otherwise the netmap files are correct
with
the logical nodes IDs, lan nos and physical node ids.

Be aware that the logical LAN number is relative to the local node.
I.E.
if
node A has:
Lan #1 = ethernet
Lan #2 = ethernet
Lan #3 = arcnet
and node B has:
Lan #1 = arcnet
so that the arcnet card on node A is connected to hte arcnet card on
node
B,
then each nodes netmap file SHOULD BE different. Node A’s netmap file
should refer to the arcnet as LAN 3 and node B’s netmap file should
refer
to
the arcnet as LAN 1.
It brings up an interesting thought. I suppose it’s possible to have a
node
that only has a LAN #3. I.E.
Node B:
Net -d3 &
Net.arcnet -l3 &
Also, make sure that you are aware of the physical arcnet node number
for
each QNX node and that this is correctly expressed in the netmap file,
as
opposed to the default “one-to-one” which hardly ever matches reality
unless
all you have is arcnet.

Thanks Alex,
I didn’t specify the logical Lan on one of the drivers and it was
messing
things up!! Anyways, I can now load the drivers and have updated the
netmap
file too. But I still cannot talk to the other node via Arcnet. It
just
comes up with the error message of bad directory.
I updated the netmap files on both the nodes and this time, am sure
that
they are on the same logical Lan and no ethernet card is there on that
lan.

What’s the invocation in the sysinit file look like?
What’s the netmap look like (my guess is you should have these all
one
different logical lans).
Try them by hand and see what error are reported.

Hi,
I am trying to set up an Arcnet card and 2 Ethernet cards on one
node.
In my
sysinit file, I load the Ethernet drivers first and then the
Arcnet
driver
but then, the Arcnet driver is not loaded.I looked at this with a
logic
analyzer and then can see that it is not even trying to write to
that
I/O
address of Arcnet card. If I unload the first Ethernet, then I can
load
the
Arcnet driver. Again if I reboot and now unload the second
EtherNet,
then I
cannot load the Arcnet. Here also, there is no access seen with
the
logic
Analyzer.
If I load the Arcnet Driver first in my sysinit, then only one
Ethernet
driver is loaded.
I have set up the Network manager for 3 drivers with ‘Net -d3 &’
option.
Any suggestions please?
