- PROBLEM: A user reported a problem and it was also verified by a Field
- Service Agent. When working on a large file, either in a
- database or just copying it, the other workstations will hang
- on any I/O pending. The problem is that the file cache size
- probably has been changed somehow. If you do FCONSOLE and
- pick statistics, then pick cache statistics, you can see what
- the file cache size is set to. If it is anything other than
- 4096 then that is the problem.
-
- SOLUTION: In order to change the cache size to 4096 you can run DISKED
- and do the following:
-
- >r 15 { Read in sector 15 }
- >c 0159 { Change location 0159 }
- 01F9 00->03 { from 00 to 03 }
- 01FA 34->. { Exit Change function }
- >w 15 { Write out sector 15 }
- >q { Quit }
-
- Then boot up again and check the cache size in FCONSOLE again
- (it should have changed to 4096).
