Environment
Novell Audit 2.0.0 Platform Agent
Novell Audit 2.0.2 Platform Agent
Novell Audit 2.0.2 FP1
Novell NetWare 6.0 Support Pack 5
Situation
Server started ABENDED when loading LCACHE.NLM.
Resolution
Restart the server and load agents.
Additional Information
The Platform Agent / Lcache automatically creates a cache file for each registered application on the current computer. The filename for each application's cache file is a hash value.
LCACHE.NLM can take a while to validate the cache
file that is out there. Please refer to KB 3372405 for
details. However, there was a version of LCACHE.NLM that did
not check an existing cache file. Therefore if the file is
corrupted, LCACHE.NLM would send the corrupted data and thus cause
an ABEND. LCACHE.NLM has been changed so that it will
validate the cache files present on the server. Currently
Novell Audit 2.0.2 FP1 does not check/validate cache files.
However, Novell Audit 2.0.2 FP2, if and when Novell Audit 2.0.2 FP2
ships, will re-instate the cache check. Novell Audit 2.0.2
FP2 has not been released, but may be released at some future
time.
