I'm trying to prepare both a V1.1 and X1.2.15 system for a demo
on Tuesday and ran into a problem with the COLLECTOR.
Sorry I'm no longer on line with the systems, so the description
is a bit vague and probably inacurate, but the doc's tell you
to add an MCC entity to your domain in the Iconic PM. When the
screens comes up to ask for the MCC name, it says to use 0 which
seems fairly obvious for MCC 0, but when I do this an click on
OK, it errors out stating that it can't find a registered entity
of MCC 0. Most of the rest works.
This is on the X1.2.5 system using the MIR rather than DNS.
I forgot to try using the FCL, but if I can't get at entity
MCC 0, the I can't proceed to work with the COLLECTOR child,
correct?
Anyone else see this behavior?
No this is not on my OSI/DECnet system!
I am running straight Phase IV DECnet....not even DECnet V5.4
Extensions!

| 2514.1 | same thing | OTOOA::DOIRON | Have DECmcc, willing to travel | Mon Mar 09 1992 10:26 | 6 |
Al,
I had the same thing, but I had already registered my mcc station using
the mcc icon and was thus able to enable the sink from the icon map.

| 2514.2 | An MCC of a different color! | DUCAT2::LICAUSE | Mon Mar 09 1992 17:31 | 11 | |
Thanks Richard,
I deregistered my entry for the local node and then tried to use the
iconic map PM as suggested in the documentation. Still didn't work
with MCC 0. I then queried MCC 0 COLLECTION_AM using FCL and found
it under the name .MCC.MCC_DIRECTOR.
Still a bit confused but at least I can work with it now.

| 2514.3 | On Map, ca't use MCC 0 to mean local MCC director | TOOK::TAN | Ed Tan | Wed Mar 11 1992 01:31 | 15 |
Re: 0
In FCL, you can refer to your MCC director on your system as MCC 0. For
example, if your system's node name is BEDTIM, then you can register it
as
REGISTER MCC 0
or
REGISTER MCC .MCC.BEDTIM_DIRECTOR
However, on Iconic Map, to register an MCC entity, you currently cannot
enter 0 to mean your local MCC director. You have to use
.MCC.BEDTIM_DIRECTOR instead.

The v1.2 iconic map will convert ".0" and "0" into ".MCC.<node>_DIRECTOR"
where node is the node name you are on.
