| 723.1 | Check domain directory protection | TOOK::R_LANE | | Thu Feb 14 1991 08:51 | 19 |
| The "queue" file is used by the Historian to pass information about
recording tasks to the background process. A queue file is created for
each domain.
The queue file is created by the background process in the domain's
directory. In your case, the background process was unable to create the
queue file, possibly due to protection violation or insufficient disk
space.
You can find out the domain directory using the following MCC command:
show domain .ALLEN all characteristics
Check the directory to make sure you have read/write access to it. Also,
verify that the disk has sufficient free space; the queue file requires
only 5 disk blocks.

| 723.2 | Couldn't find any problems there... | STKHLM::AMARTENSSON | smooth as ice | Thu Feb 14 1991 10:30 | 24 |

Domain .ALLEN is in a directory who's owner is DECMCC, and all the files
in this directory is owned by DECMCC, and DECMCC has access to all
files in it.
The batch queue, HISTORIAN$BATCH, has the following characteristics:
/BASE_PRIORITY=3 /JOB_LIMIT=6 /OWNER=[DECMCC] /PROTECTION=(S:E,O:D,G:RW,W)
And the submit command looks like this:
$ SUBMIT /USER=DECMCC /RESTART /PARAM=(.ALLEN) /QUEUE=HISTORIAN$BATCH -
SYS$MANAGER:MCC_HISTORIAN_BACKGROUND.COM
The process DECMCC do have all privlieges enabled (at the moment).
The device has 873768 free blocks and there is no Diskquota on it.
I do not understand this...
Are there any more suggestions about what to try next?

I had this problem this morning and I found out that using
logical names are making the problems, that is the directory
of the DOMAIN. I was using logical name that was pointing
on another disk and directory. I could do all kind of file access
over decnet default with the logical name. But then I changed the
directory pointer to the default, SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR], and
the HISTORIAN background is now working and RECORDING to.

Yes, this is also the cause of Anna-Lena's problem with the Historian. She
created the domain .ALLEN with the directory specification MCC_MAPS, which
is a logical name. When creating the file specification for the queue
file, the Historian simply appends the file name to the domain's directory
specification. Because the directory specification is a logical name
without the colon (:), it incorrectly became part of the file name.
You can use a logical name for the domain's directory specification, but
you have to make sure that you include the colon when specifying the
directory in the CREATE DOMAIN command. In fact, the Domain functional
module currently doesn't check the syntax of the directory specification,
so you have to be careful to enter it correctly when you create the domain.
I have submitted QAR #529 in MCC_INTERNAL to make sure this problem gets
addressed.
