874.0. "SNMP AM instal bug??" by SUBWAY::AMMU () Thu Apr 04 1991 23:06

     I have installed an SNMP AM on top of DECmcc BMS1.1. Customer has
    EMS 2.O which has BMS 1.0 in it. License shows EMS . When I tried to
    install SNMP , the installation failed saying, it requires BMS or
    MCC director. Looks like install is looking at LICENSE database,
    only for BMS, and DIRECTOR, not for EMS. I got a temporary pack for
    BMS, from colorado  and registered the license , then installed 
    SNMP  fine.
    
    		Is this a bug??

874.1	Checks for DIRECTOR and BMS only.	DANZO::CARR		`Fri Apr 05 1991 10:30`	7
	TCP/IP V1.0 Kitinstal.com makes the following license checks ... $ VMI$CALLBACK CHECK_LICENSE DECMCCTCPIP$DIR DECMCC-DIRECTOR DEC 1.0 30-AUG-1990 $ VMI$CALLBACK CHECK_LICENSE DECMCCTCPIP$BMS DECMCC-BMS DEC 1.0 30-AUG-1990
874.2	EMS includes BMS, isn't it?	SUBWAY::AMMU		`Wed Apr 10 1991 21:58`	3
	But EMS includes BMS. How about that?
874.3	EMS does include BMS	DELNI::L_FELICE		`Thu Apr 11 1991 09:11`	10
	EMS does include BMS, but it only provides one license (DECMCC-EMS). The EMS component products, such as BMS, check for this license and succeed. In this case, a BMS license would not be installed on the system, only an EMS license. Yes, the SNMP AM should check for the EMS and SMS licenses. It will be noted (with the proper procedure on how to get a PAK) in the SMS and EMS V2.1 release notes. Lisa
874.4	Fixed in the next version...	CHRISB::BRIENEN	DECmcc Bridge\|Station\|SNMP Management.	`Thu Apr 11 1991 12:40`	5
	The next version of TCP/IP SNMP AM will ship as part of the DECmcc V1.2 base system (i.e. DIRECTOR kit). This means the problem documented in the base (and reply) note(s) will disappear with DECmcc V1.2.
