    Hi,
    
    I seem to be having a problem with using mutiple window sessions from a
    single MCC workstation.  Here the scenario, I have a line mode MCC job
    running for alarming purposes (either in batch or from the command
    line).  I startup a windows session, everything is fine. I then set an
    X display back to my workstation running another windows session and
    get all sorts of messages about alarm notification being disabled, etc.
    On the command line process, if I issue a notify command for a domain I
    have alarms in, when an alarm goes off, I get various errors such as
    disabling notification, internal software logic errors and the like.
    The final effect seems to be disabling all map notification everywhere,
    but the alarms still function, as I still receive the mail notifications.

    Is what I am trying to do supported?  My customer is intending to
    have three or four windows sessions running against a single MCC
    station.
    
    I greatly appreciate any input on this matter.
    
    Regards,

Which version of DECmcc are you running?

    
    V 1.1

    The problem sounds like you are running out of memory. Please check
    your quotas on the account, and also check what the system has
    allocated for a page file. Remember when you are running multiple
    logins/sessions each on thinks that the amount of memory specified
    in the quotas is for itself. 
    
    What you are trying to do is definitely supported. You should abe
    able to do it. Also try running the mcc_audit.com procedure to help
    check things out.

    Also, if you start up multiple instances of DECmcc from FILEVIEW, you
    only get one process's worth of resources and each thing started from
    FILEVIEW subtracts it's needs.
