Re: Weird sign on problems

["Albert York" <albertyork@xxxxxxxxx>]

It keeps QINTER from allocating it at *SIGNON, since you also have a
device type entry for the device in QINTER. At least I am assuming you
do.

Apparently, when you have a device type entry in one subsystem and a
device name entry in another subsystem which refers to the same device,
you can't be sure which subsystem it ends up in. By adding the device
name entry to QINTER with *ENTER you are being more explicit. The device
name must override the device type. 

That is how I understand what is happening. Whenever I run into the
problem of devices going to the wrong subsystem this is how I have fixed
it.

  Hi Albert,

  I have *SIGNON in the AT Parm in my SUBSD for RFINTER.

  But, why would I put my my WS Device names (QPADEV*) into the QINTER
  subsystem also, with *ENTER in the AT parm? What would this do?

  Thanx,

  Nick

  This is what has worked for me.

  On the ADDWSE command specify *SIGNON for the AT (allocation)
  parameter for the RF* device in the RFINTER subsystem.

  Then add the same device name (RF*) in the QINTER subsystem bit
  specify
  *ENTER for allocation.

  Nick, in RFINTER there shouldn't be any workstation type entries and
  there shouldn't be any workstation name entries except one that
  corresponds to a generic entry, i.e., RF*, for the scanning devices.

  Your RF subsystem is managing to allocate normal workstation devices
  because of an incorrect workstation name or type entry.
