1896.0. "Mcc - dns operation problem" by SMURF::LARRYD () Mon Dec 09 1991 10:18

    I was involved in a DECmcc V1.1 installation and experienced the
    following: 
    I had DECdns properly installed and functioning.  The MCC
    directories were setup under dns using MCC_DNS_SETUP procedure.
    When I attempted to register a node4 in mcc,  I got the:
    	- MCC cannot complete operation...unknown entity.. error.
    This is the "typical" error that I should get when the dns directories
    are not setup, but in this case they were.
    
    Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

1896.1Check MCC_NODE_IDPTRM::KWAKMon Dec 09 1991 11:177
    
    RE: .0
    
    Check if MCC_NODE_IDP is properly set to reflect the DECdns setup
    (i.e. If MCC_NODE_IDP is set to 49::, make sure that
    .DNA_BACKTRANSLATION.%X49 directory and all of its child directories
    exist in the namespace)
1896.2The directories are thereSMURF::LARRYDWed Dec 11 1991 10:488
    I checked and all the directories under %x49 are there.
    I then tried to create a domain .xtest and the MCC message was
    similar :<unable to complete operation...unknown entity>.
    Then I tried to create the same domain again and MCC said that
    <entity already exists>.
    So it seems that there could be a partial registration problem??
    Any thoughts are appreciated.
    
1896.3TOOK::R_SPENCENets don&#039;t fail me now...Wed Dec 11 1991 12:469
    If you are on a workstation, could you use DNS$CONTROL to display
    
    SHOW DIR . KNOWN CHILD
    SHOW ACCESS DIR .
    SHOW DIR . KNOWN OBJ
    
    and paste the results into a file and post it here?

1896.5Domains only partially existTOOK::R_SPENCENets don&#039;t fail me now...Fri Dec 13 1991 13:1317
    You have partial domains in DNS. the *_MCC_EXT000 objects are part
    2 of n (where n can be >2 depending on the number of entities contained
    in the domain) but part 1 is missing.
    
    For example, for the ftr_MCC_EXT000 object there should be an "ftr"
    object also.
    
    What is the name you are trying to use for the NODE4s that you were
    trying ot register?
    
    Is this namespace located on only one nameserver (ie; one
    clearinghouse)?
    
    In this case, what i would do next would be to delete the *_MCC_EXT000
    objects that do not have associated root object (my term here).

    The node4 name is ftrvax. I simply tried to do:
    mcc>resgister NODE4 .DNA_Node.ftrvax syn ftrvax
    
    This is the only nameserver used (i.e.,FTRVAX)
    
    Thanks
