1999.0. "%MCC-F-EVT_POOL_VERSKEW, event pool version incompatible" by TAEC::DUNON (Paul Dunon - Telecom Engineering - VBO) Thu Dec 26 1991 11:12

Hi,

The following error messages are displayed during the IVP. (T.1.2.4)
Any ideas ??

%MCC-F-EVT_POOL_VERSKEW,  event pool version incompatible

%MCC-E-EVT_POOL_NOTMAPPED, event pool is not mapped

1999.1Stop old processesTOOK::MINTZErik MintzThu Dec 26 1991 11:2214
You don't indicate whether you are running VMS or ULTRIX.
But either way, the problem is almost certainly an older version
of MCC running while you tried to install.

On ULTRIX, you must terminate all DECmcc processes (including any
event sinks) before installation.

On VMS, check for batch jobs running exporting or alarm rules.

There are already several notes on this topic, and some work may be
done before SSB to check for this problem at installation time.

I'm running Ultrix.

The error message appears during the INSTALL phase of the setld, when creating
new dispatch tables. There is no other MCC process than the ones of the MM
being enrolled.




Now creating dispatch tables...

Removing old dispatch table.
Please re-enroll any local management modules after installation.

1999.3Delete the shared memory using ipcrm -mTOOK::T_HUPPERThe rest, as they say, is history.Mon Dec 30 1991 10:4420
    Did you remove the old event pool (shared memory) using the "ipcrm -m
    XXX" command, where XXX is the id of the DECmcc event pool shared
    memory segment?  This must be done before an installation over an old
    version.  
    
    The event pool shared memory is owned either by the user or by
    root,daemon.  An "ipcs" command will show all Ultrix inter-process
    resources currently allocated.  Remove only those shared memory
    segments fitting the above ownership.  The event pool shared memory
    cannot be marked for delete by DECmcc itself at this time (to clean
    itself up when all attached processes go away), as no new processes
    could then attach to it (this creates bizarre results), and DECmcc
    never knows when it is being fully shut down.  Therefore we let the
    pool exist until it is explicitly removed using the above command.  It
    can exist even with no processes attached to it.
    
    Do the installation instructions say to perform the above operation if
    installing over an old Ultrix DECmcc?  They should.
