2649.0. "Unexpected condition returned to Notification FM" by SGWS::SID (Sid Gordon @ISO) Sun Mar 29 1992 05:55

Hi!
Here's another problem which started when I upgraded from 1.2.4 to 1.2.15.

About 2-3 minutes after I start the Iconic Map interface, a window appears
with the title:
	"Notify Request 1 for domain .dec-israel encountered an exception"

Inside the window is the date and time and the notice:

	Unexpected condition returned to Notification FM

MCC Routine Error |
                  | %MCC-E-NOTFOUND, unsupported
                  | combination of verb, entity, partition
                  ____________________________________________		

and an acknowledge button.  After I acknowledge it the message does not
reappear during that session.
Note: ".dec-israel" is the name of the default domain.

The question is, what is the cause of this message and how can I get rid of
it?  When I start "Notification Services" and open the window "Notify Requests"
I see the line:
	state:	  entity:
	enabled   .dec-israel

When I select this and try to disable it and then delete it, it disappears,
but the next time I enter DECMCC it's back again.  If I open this window
imediately after starting DECMCC (and before the above error appears), I
see the line

	state:	                  entity:
	being created, enabled   .dec-israel

Then after about two minutes it changes to "enabled" and the error notification
appears.  Is there a way to get rid of this notification request?

Help?

2649.1Still waiting, hoping...SGWS::SIDSid Gordon @ISOThu Apr 09 1992 03:4312
I still haven't solved the problem in .0, that is:

MCC Routine Error |
                  | %MCC-E-NOTFOUND, unsupported
                  | combination of verb, entity, partition
                  ____________________________________________		


Can anyone help?  Even a "This has been QAR'd" or "RTFM" would be
appreciated.

2649.2mcc-e-notfound is an enrollment error messageTOOK::CALLANDERMCC = My Constant CompanionTue Apr 21 1992 11:0510
    that error means that we have tried to do a getevent request and
    the management module that says it supports this request is either
    not enrolled or doesn't actually support the command. If you are
    simply using the standard kit with no extra add-ons and have
    default notification enabled from the map, then you need to verify
    that alarms is enrolled. Enroll the alarms fm and then exit and
    restart MCC, this will most likely clear the problem.

>>> If you are simply using the standard kit with no extra add-on

I am (that is, I am using 1.2.15)

I do.

>>> then you need to verify that alarms is enrolled.
>>> Enroll the alarms fm and then exit and restart MCC

I assume alarms is enrolled, since otherwise, alarms wouldn't work at all.
As I said, it generally works okay.  I can define and enable and delete 
alarms, and they do everything they're supposed to.  My only problem is
this annoying error message which pops up after I start up and then doesn't
bother me anymore.  In any case, I tried to re-enroll alarms, as suggested.
When I choose "Enroll..." from the File pulldown menu, I get a window asking
me for the module name.  I tried "Alarms", "Alarm", and "Alarms_FM" and
always get a "file not found" error message.

>>> This will most likely clear the problem.
    
It doesn't.  Any other ideas?

You can turn notification off, if you really want to.  But then when alarms fire
your icons won't turn colors.  To turn it off, bring up the Customize->Map 
dialogue box from the map window, then click on the "Notification: Disable"
button, press OK, then Customize->Save Current Settings.  Then, when domains
are opened, notification won't be started up.

If alarms is working, then as Jill stated in .1, there's probably another
management module that's not enrolled.  SNMP caused a similar problem in
some baselevels, but I thought the error was "invalid attribute partition".

What kinds of members are in the domain?  Does the domain have dynamic
subdomains?  If so, what kinds of members are in them?

If any of the domain members are listed in the dictionary as having events
in the notification partition, the notification FM will attempt to issue
a GETEVENT to those entities, and if the MM supporting that class hasn't
enrolled a GETEVENT verb, you'll get this error.

This problem has gone away.  I upgraded to 1.2.7 and the problem remained,
but I deleted an old boilerplate file MCC_FDICTIONARY.BPT found in 
SYS$SPECIFIC:[MCC] and that has apparently done the trick.

I'm not sure what the connection is, but if someone wants to shed more light
on this he is welcome to.
