Hello,

Tried to load, using LOAP, the Application file into the controller but failed. The controller had been cleared of the previous data base and programme.
The message I received, on the ONLINE-BUILDER was:
DATA BASE ALLOCATION FAILED. POSSIBLY DUE TO ADDED MASTERBUS TASK

also I have never come across the return prompt: Db allocation offset -7818
Any ideas?

Thank you

 

Guessing you already got an answer but for future reference ...

At some point in the controllers lifetime a new board was inserted into the rack. That board has to be removed before you can load the controller with LOAP again. Then you can re-insert the board and DICONFIG the controller to put it back in run mode.

Since you probably dont know which board was added, the usual procedure is to remove everything except CPU, memory and backplane controller boards.

Thank you for the reply, roblm.
