The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SNA Server, version 2.11 SP1, on platform(s):
- the operating system: Microsoft Windows NT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
The SNA Server 2.11 Refresh does not install from a floppy disk that contains
the image files from the \I386\Disks directory on the SNA Server 2.11 compact
disc.
CAUSE
=====
This problem occurs due to the following:
- The file size of CHK.SUM increases. Therefore, CHK.SUM and the other image
files exceed the capacity limit of the 1.44 MB floppy disk during the
installation.
- Other floppy disks from the disk set exceed the capacity limit of 1.44 MB if
you also include SNASP1.HLP and SNASP1.RTF.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this problem:
1. Use Xcopy to copy the contents of the \I396\Disks directory to a temporary
directory on the hard disk drive. For example, type the following at the
MS-DOS Command Prompt:
"xcopy <Compact Disc>:\I386\Disks\*.* <Drive>:\<Temp Dir>
/s" (without the quotation marks)
2. Delete SNASP1.HLP and SNASP1.RTF from the temporary directory.
3. Delete CHK.SUM from the \I386\Disks\Disk1 directory.
4. Create a SNASP1.HLP dummy file (file with zero bytes).
5. Create a CHK.SUM dummy file.
6. Run SNADISK.CMD to create new floppy disks.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 2.11 Service
Pack 1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
