Qnet node discovery

Hi,

When I start CompA and then immediately I start CompB (both are
running QNX 6.1) it takes CompB about 10-11 minutes to discover CompA
and list it under ‘/net/CompA’.

How can I make CompB discover CompA faster (automatically, not by
issuing ‘cd /net/CompA’ or something like that)?

Thanks,

Omer.

No way. The “auto discover” never meant to “reliable”.

A good question is why it take 10-11 minutes (I assume both
node are on same ether).

Change the way you load QNET, instead of loading it from
io-net command line, use a “mount -Tio-net npm-qnet.so” instead
might help.
