2959.0. "Deregister problem" by SUBWAY::REILLY (Mike Reilly - New York Bank District) Thu May 07 1992 13:37

    I have a number of SNMP entities which show up when I enter a 
    DIR SNMP * but are not registered. How do I remove these entities?
    A Deregister or Erase just tells me they are not registered.
    
    Thanks,
    Mike

2959.1Please provide log of commands usedTOOK::TANEd TanThu May 07 1992 15:336
    Mike,
    	Could you be more specific and enter a log of the exact command you
    used when doing a DIR SNMP * and DEREGISTER/ERASE? Also, are you on VMS
    or Ultrix? Using DNS or MIR?

    I'm running 1.2.7 on Ultrix. I noticed the problem after I had
    performed a DEREGISTER SNMP *.  
    
    If I enter DIR SNMP *, I now get a list of devices none of which
    have a fullname. eg:
    
    MCC> dir snmp *
    
    SNMP 30bmp1cd
    AT 1992-05-07-17:12:16.433
    
    Directory successful.
                                       Name = 30bmp1cd
                                    Address = 146.149.180.10
    
    SNMP cisco1
    AT 1992-05-07-17:13:28.289
    
    Directory successful.
                                       Name = cisco1
                                    Address = 146.149.250.130
    
    
    SNMP NEWR01-e0
    AT 1992-05-07-17:13:31.383
    
    Directory successful.
                                       Name = NEWR01-e0
                                    Address = 146.149.1.100
    
    however a DIR command on one of these entities produces and error:
    
    MCC> dir snmp NEWR01-e0
    
    SNMP NEWR01-e0
    AT 1992-05-07-17:16:07.605
    
    The entity SNMP NEWR01-e0  is not registered
                      Not Registered Entity = SNMP NEWR01-e0
    
    Is it possible that the results of a previous DIR SNMP * command are
    still held in cache somewhere?

2959.3Need to convert SNMP objects in DNSTRM::KWAKThu May 07 1992 18:5039
    
    
    The remaining SNMP objects were registered using MCC V1.1.
    (you can find the SNMP objects:
    	# dnscp 
    	dns> sho obj .mcc_ip.*
    	dns> exit
    )
    
    In MCC V1.1 the SNMP objects did not have Fullname and
    they were stored in .MCC_IP directory of DNS namespace.
    
    In MCC V1.2, the SNMP objects have Fullname (registered name), IP name
    and IP address as identifiers.
    
    The format in which the V1.1 SNMP objects are stores in DNS is NOT
    compatible with the MCC 1.2 format.
    
    In MCC 1.2 kit, there is a conversion program which will converts V1.1
    SNMP objects into V1.2 format.
    
    Please refer to the Release Notes.
    
    If you do not need the V1.1 SNMP objects, you may delete them using
    dnscp:
    	dns> delete object .mcc_ip.30bmp1cd
        dns> delete object .mcc_ip.cisco1
    		.
    		.
    		.
    (NOTE: if the SNMP objects belong to domains, do the following:
    	A. Deregister SNMP objects using MCC V1.1
    
    		OR
    	B.1. Run the conversion program (on VMS or Ultrix)
    	B.2. Deregister SNMP objects using MCC V1.2
    )

2959.4Thanks.SUBWAY::REILLYMike Reilly - New York Bank DistrictFri May 08 1992 13:115
    Yup, that was the problem. I had run the conversion program but I
    guess these entities were registered via a 1.1 system at a later
    date.
