LAT Service Connection Problems
At an OpenVMS host (Version 5.4-1 and later):
Ask the system manager of a node that offers the LAT service to invoke the port driver as
follows:
$ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:LATCP
• If you do not receive the LATCP prompt, LAT software is not running on your
OpenVMS service node.
Action: Run LAT$STARTUP using the following command:
$ @SYS$STARTUP:LAT$STARTUP.COM
• If you receive the LATCP prompt, verify the status of the LAT protocol by looking at
the Node State and Incoming Connections. Enter the following command at the LATCP
prompt:
