Our DECmcc BMS T1.2.15 installation fails with the following error
message:
%MCC-E-INV_IN_ENTITY, software error: invalid in_entity (input entity)
parameter
At the beggining of the installation we also get:

DECmcc requires a directory where the DECmcc common files
will be installed. If the logical MCC_COMMON has been
redefined, the new definition will be used as the default.
If the logical is not defined, the default is for the files
to be installed in a directory on the system disk called
SYS$COMMON:[MCC]. The installer may override the default.
The target directory for the files as it is now defined is
shown below.
Press RETURN to use the value shown or enter a new disk and

The Time Differential Factor (TDF) is the difference between
your time zone and the international standard Coordinated
Universal Time (UTC)
A negative (-) TDF value means that this node is west of UTC
A positive (+) TDF value means that this node is east of UTC
The range is from -12:00 to +13:00. The format is +hh:mm or
-hh:mm with hh indicating the number of hours and mm
indicating the number of minutes. A few examples are:
Eastern Standard Time is -5:00 hours from UTC.
Eastern Daylight Time is -4:00 hours from UTC.
Great Britain, Iceland, Portugal, Upper Volta are
at UTC or 0:0.
Great Britain, Summer Time +1:00 hour from UTC.
Japan is +9:00 hours from UTC.

* Time Differential Factor [-4:00]:
DECmcc requires the use of a Name Service for the storage
and retrieval of entity information. It is recommended that
DECdns be used for this purpose. DECdns is used to make
information available network-wide and can be accessed
throughout the network by software such as DECmcc.
Some installation sites may not need or want network-wide
availability for this network entity information. An
example might be a network which has little network entity
information or security relavent information. Also, a
DECdns Server has to be installed on the network otherwise
DECmcc cannot use DECdns as a Name Service.
In such cases, DECmcc provides the capability of making the
Namespace local to the system on which DECmcc is installed.
This option does NOT use the DECdns software for accessing
network-wide Namespace information.
The user may choose only one Name Service. Changing from
one Name Service to another at a later time may require
manual procedures for re-entering entity data.
* Use DECdns as the DECmcc Name Service [YES]?
Using DECdns as the DECmcc Name Service
* Is this correct [YES]?
You must specify the IDP (or network address initial domain
part) for your network. This must either be the default
value of "49::", or a value explicitly allocated for your
network by one of the recognized allocation authorities.
The format is:
afi:idi:
where:
afi = The "authority and format identifier". This is two
decimal digits indicating the IDP allocation
authority
idi = The "initial domain identifier". This is a string of
decimal digits that has been allocated specifically
for your network.
An IDP of "49::" may be used if your network will not be
interconnected with other OSI networks (there is no "idi"
associated with this "afi").
* Initial Domain Part [49::]:
The DECmcc Reports Package consists of files that allow you
to use DATATRIEVE to create reports using data exported from
DECmcc. Please see the Reports Package section of the
DECmcc Performance Analyzer Use manual for information

Following the copying of the files, the DECmcc BMS startup
command procedure(s) will be invoked. Operational tables
will be created by this procedure.
To automatically set up DECmcc BMS on your system,
edit your local system start-up command procedure
SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_V5.COM
so that it invokes the DECmcc BMS start-up command
procedure. Add:
@SYS$STARTUP:MCC_STARTUP_BMS.COM
after the statement that invokes the DECnet start-up
command file (STARTNET.COM).
NOTE: If you have previously installed the DECmcc DIRECTOR
on this system, you should REMOVE the line:
@SYS$STARTUP:MCC_STARTUP_DIR.COM
from your SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_V5.COM procedure.
NOTE: The DECdns clerk must also be started up before
the MCC_STARTUP_BMS command procedure is invoked.
Following the DECmcc BMS start-up the DECmcc BMS
IVP command procedure will be invoked.

| 2725.2 | Please do/check the following: | TOOK::L_GROSSMAN | Fri Apr 10 1992 15:51 | 16 | |
First, please make sure there are no processes running MCC. If there are, kill them. Second, please make sure no MCC images have been placed sys$specific:[syslib] or sys$specific:[sysexe] Optional:do an analyze/disk/repair sys$sysdevice This will make sure files that are marked for delete are removed. If mcc files were listed, they were not cleanly deleted. If possible, I recommend getting a more recient baselevel than X1.2.15. | |||||

My understanding was Base lever 15, announced in note 3.135 is the
latest. Isn't this correct? There has not been any Base level
announcement, at least not on note 3!

Thanks, that worked.
Here is what I did, in case someone ealse run into the same problem:
1- Deleted the old images, MCC_DOMAIN_FM and MCC_PA_FM from
SYS$SPECIFIC:[SYSLIB].
2- Then:
$ analyze/disk/repair sys$sysdevice
3- Then:
$ @SYS$STARTUP:MCC_STARTUP_BMS ENROLL
4- After this, the IVP run successfully:
