DOCUMENT:Q198903 06-AUG-2002 [exchange] TITLE :XFOR: PROFS Connector Does not Support "Messages" PRODUCT :Microsoft Exchange PROD/VER:winnt:5.5 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== The Microsoft Exchange Connector for IBM OV/VM does not support the delivery of "messages" from the host to Exchange Server. In the OV/VM environment, it is possible to send "messages" rather than "notes" to other Office users. "Messages" are smaller versions of "notes." When a host user attempts to send a "message" to an Exchange Server user, an error will occur on the RSCS console with the following error message: No active path to [NODE] is currently open. Message sent to at node . CAUSE ===== The only form of mail documents supported by the Microsoft Exchange Connector for IBM OV/VM connector are "notes." WORKAROUND ========== Instruct host users to send only "notes" to Exchange Server users. STATUS ====== Microsoft acknowledges this to be a problem. Additional query words: RSCS, console, messages, error, missing ====================================================================== Keywords : Technology : kbExchangeSearch kbExchange550 kbZNotKeyword2 Version : winnt:5.5 Issue type : kbinfo ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
