790.0. "dds entry disappearing" by MLNTSC::PASSALACQUA () Wed Jun 03 1992 10:31

    Hi all,
    
    a customer of mine using vms 5.4-2 all-in-1 2.4 and DDS, has the
    following problem:
    
    after a modification of a user in all-in-1 profile, the correspon-
    ding entry in DDS file disappears. In the all-in-1 profile the
    pointer to DDS is present, but no information on DDS file.
    
    I did some test on my system, but no similar problem.
    
    This stange behaviour is quite random, so I really don't know what
    to suggest him.
    
    He is working in a cluster, 3 nodes all world search node, and he
    uses deferred uptate.
    
    Any suggestion will be grattly appreciated.
    
    Ciao
    Sonia

790.1	Duplicate MANAGER entries in MBMAN?	AIMTEC::LAMBERSON_M		`Wed Jun 03 1992 13:49`	64
	I have seen this problem caused by "duplicate" MANAGER entries in MBMAN with ALL-IN-1 linked to the second entry. MBMAN>SHO DDS SUB/FULL/SURNAME="MANAGER" You should only see 1 entry owned by the cluster alias. If you see more than one entry, look to see if they have the "Proxy user agent" field filled in with "OA$alias$ALLIN1" (alias = cluster alias). If there are two entries use the following commands at the ALL-IN-1 menu level to see the DDSID fields for the entries. DIR SMD <RETURN> MANAGER <RETURN> (you will now see all the MANAGER entries from DDS) Use the <SELECT> key to select one on the entries owned by your cluster and then enter the following command to see the DDSID. <GET OA$SCROLL_ADDRESS:32:2 (The DDSID will be displayed for the selected entry, save the information) Do this for each entry owned by the cluster. Then <EXIT SCREEN> back to the menus. To see the current value for DDSID for the MANAGER profil record use the following command. <GET PROFIL.DDSID["MANAGER"] Compare the values to determine which MBMAN entry is linked to ALL-IN-1 MANAGER. If the entry in MBMAN that is linked has the correct information (Proxy, Reverse lookup, etc.) then deleting the non-linked entry in MBMAN may solve the problem. MBMAN>DEL DDS SUB/FULL/SURNAME=MANAGER (this command will prompt you for which entry to delete. The entries will appear in the same order from first to last as occurred during the SMD command used earlier. You may have to be in SYSTEM or MBMANAGER to perform this step) Example of a "good" entry under Message Router V3.2 Given name : System Surname : Manager Position or role : * SUTHRN * Name : ALL-IN-1 System Manager Reverse lookup : MANAGER@A1@SUTHRN Unique subscriber identifier : OA$SUTHRN$ALLIN1 Proxy user agent : OA$SUTHRN$ALLIN1 Master copy owning node : SUTHRN MHS/VMS address number : 1 MHS/VMS address part : SUTHRN MHS mailbox : A1 MHS User identifier : MANAGER Access Time : 13-MAR-1992 10:02:10.13 Update Time : 5-MAY-1992 23:28:21.93 DDSID : 21280A800095783D8D7FF8409E710000 If none of the entries are correct then cleaning up from the previous adoption and re-adopting the Mail Directory may be the best option. Hope this helps.
790.2	Deferred Updates are not good	AIMTEC::WICKS_A	Liverpool win the F.A Cup again!	`Wed Jun 03 1992 20:14`	17
	Sonia, Apart from learning to spell our favourite product name correctly - it's ALL-IN-1 all in uppercase the things you need to also note are.... 1) Deferred Updates are NOT supported with ALL-IN-1 - this is highly likely to be the cause of your problem 2) You say all 3 nodes of your cluster are world-search - I hope you mean that DDS is installed once cluster-wide and not 3 separate times because you certainly could create problems for yourself that way also. regards, Andrew.D.wicks
