Hi, I have been running MCC V1.1 with DNS server V1.1 on my station for a number of months now and have started having problems with wildcard domain listing/operations. The error returned is: MCC Routine Error = %MCC-E-NOATTRIB, no such DNS attribute This error appears at random times when performing such operations as: show domain lavc3 member * show node4 * max links, in domain lavc1 set node4 * broadcast routing timer 300, in domain routers_1,... . . etc The listing naturally stops at that point. The objects that produce the error have been node4 entities, bridges, and domains (ie. demprs, delnis, etc). There seems to be no rhyme or reason for the occurences, however the are starting to happen frequently. If the same command is executed a moment after a failure, it may work, stop at a different entity or stop at the same entity. I can audibly detect the disk head movement when the DNS lookups are being done and there seems to be an awful lot of activity. At any rate, I'm looking for ideas or suggestions. Thanks, Dave Comfort

1528.1 | does it happen with a specific domain or any domain? | TOOK::JESURAJ | Fri Sep 27 1991 13:12 | 20 | |
Sorry it took so long to answer this... I am not sure what exactly going on there in your system. I assume that you have set up the DNS skulk process to clean up the NAMESPACE once in a day. If it is not set up right the name space may contain uncollected "garbages", and that may slow down the activities. Check the skulk process set up. Does this error occur only with a specfic domain or for any random domain? If it happens only for a specific domain, most likely the domain data in the disk have been corrupted. We can verify this using DNS$control, and we may able to recover from this corruption. ... Jay | |||||
1528.2 | Any resolution? | BABY::SYSTEM | Fri Oct 18 1991 15:52 | 5 | |
Has there been a resolution to this problem? We have a similar problem.... Thanks | |||||

My sincere apologies, I had stopped monitoring this note. Yes, I resolved the problem, but it was caused by a stupid mistake on my part. While attempting to create a clearinghouse, I inadvertently created it on the MCC node, which already had a clearinghouse. Both were attempt to clear for the root directory and none of the directories were replicated in the secondary clearinghouse, so which ever clearinghouse served the look up request produced either a successful retrieval or a failure. The problems in note 1661.* appear similar, but this one was just me. Again, sorry I abandoned this note. Dave Comfort |
