9iAS Installation on HP Tru64 Cluster

Question

We have sucessfully managed to install both the Infrastructure and middle-tier on a Tru 64 Cluster. The application (forms 9i) runs perfectly OK, however, we cannot get the report server to work. (report server called reportserver rather than rep_apollo)
We have a development environment, which is also running Tru64 which runs perfectly OK.
We have the osagent installed on an NT machine on the same sub-net, and works OK for development.
On the Cluster machine, if we go to the middle-tier's $ORACLE_HOME/vbroker4/bin directory and type osfind, nothing is found. If we set the environment variable OSAGENT_ADDR to the machine running the osagent, and then perform an osfind it works OK - we have therefore set the environment variable in the profile, reports.sh and rwengine.sh but still the reportserver does not register with the osagent
Is there any other file that we need to change for the reportserver engine to know where the osagent is ?
Thanks in advance

Richard,
We have also installed 9iAS on a non-clustered Tru64 box. Sometimes the reports server starts, mostly not the first time, stays up for no more than 24 hours and dies. We are using version 9.0.2.3 (fully patched) on Tru64 5.1a box.
I have logged numerous TARs but not getting andy real answers. The osfind problem you reported i believe is spurious because the osgaent we have running on a windows box as the Visibroker people never wrote it for Tru64, don't know if this is still the case for 9.0.4 which is only certified on 5.1b. If i issue the osfind on windows it's running!
We are going to try 9.0.4 on a windows 2000 box and if it works then we will go done that path. Personally i feel the problem is with 9iAS not communicating with the osagent on windows properly?
