292.0. "relation DOMAIN members in DNS and on ICONIC MAP?" by KETJE::PACCO () Thu Aug 30 1990 10:41

A domain DECTOWN was created and two NODE4 nodes were inserted.
All appeared to be successful.  The map was saved.

When the domain DECTOWN was opened afterwards, only the background 
lines of the domain appears, but no NODE4 icons any more.
It is not the first time I have this behaviour.

Analyzing the MCC environment and the DOMAIN MAP file shows apparently
that everything is O.K.

Note: A similar domain populated with bridges gives no problems.


How can this problem be solved ?
Regards,
Dominique.

Check to make sure that the entities in the domain are registered.
If you or someone else deregisters one, the domain fm will not return it
or any members created after it.

292.2Please clarify?NSSG::R_SPENCENets don't fail me now...Tue Sep 04 1990 10:499
    Jim, could you clarify that point? Are you saying that if nodes A-Z
    are registered and included in a domain and then node G is
    deregistered, nodes H-Z will not show up anymore?
    
    I am confused by your statement.
    
    thanks

292.3That is correct, It is being worked on.TOOK::A_MOOREWed Sep 05 1990 18:226
Yes 292.2 description is correct.  

Better solutions are being working on right now.  Until then be careful with
deregistrations.

    I am back with a litlle delay ....
    
    I am SURE that the two nodes are registered correctly.  The DNS
    	contents can be seen using the DIRECTORY command. Only these
    two nodes are involved in the exercise !

    Nevertheless, NODE4 entities still does not want to appear on a map.

292.5question? how was the map createdGOSTE::CALLANDERWed Sep 26 1990 11:125
    Just a clarifying question (and maybe if I reread all the previous
    notes I'd find the answer, but...)
    
    How was the domain created? (using FCL, using MAP...)
292.6BARREL::LEMMONFri Oct 05 1990 14:5222
  Hmm..

  If I got this right, you can do 

	o a DIRECTORY of each member in the domain and verify that it 
	  is registerd. 
	o a SHOW DOMAIN <domain-name> MEMBER * ALL IDENTIFIERS and get 
	   the list of the global entities that belong to the domain, even
	   the NODE4 global entities.

  but when you open the domain from the Iconic Map PM, all entities are 
  displayed except for the NODE4s.

  Something bizzare is going on if this is the behavior. This is becaus
  the Iconic Map PM does the exact same SHOW DOMAIN <domain-name> MEMBER *
  command.  Even if it doesn't find the corresponding map file entry it
  will still display it.

  I need to look at your environment to see what is going on. Give me a 
  call at 226-5329.
