1973.0. "Problem with Graph " by WRK4ME::LUND ("Oh sure now it's working !") Fri Dec 20 1991 10:40


	I've run into a problem using the graph function under the operations 



	VAXstation 3100 M38 16mb
	DECmcc T1.2.4
	VMS 5.4-3


Problem:

	1. First problem I have is when I select the graph function under
           the operations menu, and then monitor those items I want everything
           is going fine up to this point. Now the problem when I want to
           cancel or stop one of the functions being monitored within the
           graph it will lock up DECmcc, and the only way I've found to 
           get around this is to kill/stop DECmcc and restart it again.


	2. Second problem I have is when I setup a entity for my station
           which is running UCX V1.3 as a SNMP entity ( I Known UCX does
           not have SNMP support yet) and try to do any function from
           the operations menu it will crash my station. I would expect
           to see a error message not a system crash. I have not captured
           the stack dump yet.



					Thanks for any help/suggestions

    Could you be more specific about what you were graphing?

        I hope the following is useful to you. Currently my environment is
very basic, in that I only have four entities two are node4 and the other
to are snmp. First the graph problem, I'll select the host entity (DECsystem
5400) and then select the graph function from the iconic map operations
menu. Once this comes up I'll select essential statistics, which I'll pick
in packets, out packets, and total packets from the menu. They all start up
fine and will run as long as I don't attempt to stop anyone of the graphs
or click on the cancel icon at the bottom of the graph screen. Once I stop
one or all of the graphs it will hang everything in DECmcc, and I'll have
to kill the windows and fire up DECmcc to get it working again. This is
repeatable everytime on my system, it looks from what I can tell so far
that vms is not cleaning the process up and thus is hanging DECmcc. I guessing
at this because when I show system I see three process sitting there with
no process names tag to them. Hope this is of help, if you need more information
from me let me know. I will try to get as much info together to help figure
out what the problem is.

This problem is as follows - I select the snmp icon from the toolbox                                            
register my VMS 5.4-3 /UCX V1.3 as a snmp entity, place it in the map


        VIA FCL>

                REGISTER .WRK4ME SYNONYM = WRK4ME
                SNMP WRK4ME

                Registration successful

                create domain ip_host member .wrk4me

                Creation Successful

        or iconic map both register fine with no errors, now I'll click on the
icon for wrk4me, and attempt to do a SHOW CHARACTERISTICS, or for that matter
anything against this entity it will crash my system on the spot. I have removed
it currently from my map, but will add it back in to see if it is repeatable.

1973.5graph change of threshold.HLRG02::STEEGDECmcc PABX AM developmentMon Dec 23 1991 03:5419
Hello,

We encountered a strange behaviour with the graph.

When  you have a graph with the scale from 0 to 40.000 and you set on 30.000 a
threshold this works fine.
					but,
When there comes a new measurement value in the graph which is above 40.000 then
the graph rescales. eg the scale is now from 0 to 80.000 this is right.
BUT the treshold is now 60.000, so the value of the treshold is changed.

On my opinion the threshold is not set on a value in your graph, but on a
fixed pixel.

THIS IS NOT VERY BEAUTIFUL
