I have EFT V1.1 running on a VMS 5.4 system.
From the Iconic Map I want to check if a BNA circuit on a node4 entity has
service enabled so I do the following:
double click on a node4 entity
select circuit
select operations
show char
I get a DECmcc message:
"Management Window Message: Unexpected information was returned in outp:
code = 58"
and all the char info except service is displayed.
If I do the same for a CI circuit I get all the relevant info including
service.
This all works fine from the FCL.

The Management Window Message: Unexpected information was returned in outp: code = 58 means that the Node4 AM returned an attribute which, according to its MSL and the variant type that this circuit is, is not in the list of attributes to be expected back. We let the user know about this. In general, it means the MSL has a problem for that attribute and that variant. Jim Carey is going to look at that end of things. The Iconic Map PM does extra checking when an entity class has variant information. The FCL simply displays what is returned in outp. That is why you see a difference. Verna | |||||

Bill,
We've tried as much as possible to isolate the various attributes
returned for different types of circuits and to collect them (as
variants) in the entity class dictionary.
Our goal is to give the Iconic Map interface as much information as
possible to guide the user in setting up the wide range of DECnet
Phase 4 circuits.
We missed this one. I'll get it as a bug into our QAR system, and make
sure that the V1.1 dictionary correctly reflects this attribute.
Thanks for letting us know.
-Jim Carey
