Article: Q165702
Product(s): Microsoft SNA Server
Version(s): WINDOWS:2.11 SP1,2.11 SP2,3.0
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): kbnetwork
Last Modified: 13-JUN-2001

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft SNA Server, versions 2.11 SP1, 2.11 SP2, 3.0, on platform(s):
   - the operating system: Microsoft Windows NT 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


SYMPTOMS
========

It is not possible to add more than 10,000 LUs to a single SNA Server 3270, LUA
or Downstream pool using either 2.11 (using SNA Admin), or 3.0 (using SNA
Manager). Even though a single SNA Server 2.11 server can support up to 10,000
sessions and SNA Server 3.0 can support up to 15,000 sessions, an LU pool may
span SNA Servers in an SNA subdomain.

CAUSE
=====

The SNA Admin and SNA Manager programs were incorrectly limiting the number of
LUs that could be added to an LU pool.

RESOLUTION
==========

An update to SNA Server 2.11 and 3.0 is available to correct this problem. To
resolve this problem, obtain the hotfix mentioned below.


STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 2.11, 2.11
Service Pack 1, 2.11 Service Pack 2, and 3.0.
This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 U.S. Service
Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following word
