I also observed the same problem on Alpha and Integrity with HPE and VSI Ip Stack (as well as on x86).
Cause of the problem: your "Parse Style" process is configured as "Extended".
The workaround is :
$ set proc/pars=trad ! this fixes the observed behavior;
then
$ @sys$manager:tcpip$config
and you'll see that it will work.
I have reported this issue several times in the past to the IP stack development team (HPE and VSI).

Yes, you're right...
Code: Select all
$ pipe sho proc /all | sea sys$pipe parse
Parse Style: Extended
Thanks for the tip - let's hope they fix it.

This is actually on the slate to be fixed in 2024. We can look forward to that problem going away soon!
