3886.0. "Error while creating domain member" by COLSER::WELZEL (Uwe Welzel, NaC, Cologne) Fri Oct 09 1992 13:12

Hello,

while we're trying to create a member ( which is a domain) of a other domain 
in the following way
 
 mcc> create domain .test 
 
 mcc> create domain eu.by.byl.q18l member .test
 
we get the following error message

 INV_HANDLE_STATE , Invalid Handle State.

If we're adding i.e. a node4 to the same domain it works fine.
i.e.
 mcc> create domain eu.by.byl.q18l member .bylv21 ->(Node4)

Creating the same domain as a member of an other Domain i.e

mcc> create domain .eu.by.byl.q18_q17  member .test 

it also works fine.
 We're trying this commands from the SYSTEM account with all privs.
Also  in DNS is no access restrictions to the object for the system account.
Installed SW
DECmcc BMS V1.2 (SSB) and ELM, TSAM (all SSB Versions)
VMS V5.5

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advanced

3886.1It may be related to what the domain eu.by.byl.g181 is contained byTOOK::A_MOOREFri Oct 09 1992 14:4514
Uwe,

When a dynamic domain is added it checks for cicular domain hierarchy.  There may
some conditions there that is causing a problem.  

Look at the hierarchy of domains that eu.by.byl.q181 belongs to.  Is domain test
in any of them?   Any problem using a different domain name such testtwo?
  

The invalid handle error should be reported by domain FM.  So if we can duplicate
the conditions that causes it, it should get fixed.

3886.2Domain .eu.by.byl.q18l contains 23 other DomainsCOLSER::WELZELUwe Welzel, NaC, CologneMon Oct 12 1992 08:0835
Hi Al,

as I mentioned in .0, first I creat a new domain named 'test'. Then I add this
domain as a member to the domain 'eu.by.byl.q18l'. (So, domain 'test' is really 
new domain and does not exist in any other Domain). In this case I'll get the 
error message (INV_HANDLE_STATE , Invalid Handle State).
I've tried this from FCL and from IMPM. 
    
    Also at the moment domain '.eu.by.byl.q18l' contains 23 other (Sub-)Domains
    as members. This should not be a problem.
    
Domain '.eu.by.byl.q18l' is a member of the Domain 'eu.by.byl.q18_q17' and if I
add domain 'test' as member to the domain '.eu.by.byl.q18_q17' it works fine.

The Hierachy looks as follow:

		.DM.BY
		   |
		.DM.BYL
		   |
		.EU.BY.BYL.Q18_Q17 (place domain 'test' here works)
		   |
		.EU.BY.BYL.Q18L (place domain 'test' here, I get error message)


Thanks, 
Regards Uwe
    
3886.3two domain hierachies?!!COL01::LUNTThu Nov 05 1992 03:3163
    Hello,
    
    
    	I just wanted to include the solution to this problem. 
    
    Basically we have ONE main domain hierachial structure. 
    This structure includes the domain with which we were having 
    problems. We then have several "standalone" domains.
    These domains were created to have a general overview of our
    bridge and wan connections, because our regular domain
    structure is structured by building and physical location and
    not by logical connection. In one of these "standalone" domains the 
    domain .eu.by.byl.q18l was also a member, a static member. This was
    done just to show the logical connections from the bridges to their
    respective buildings. This in affect created two interwined domain
    hierachies:
    
                        Main Hierachy:
    
    
    
    			World
    		     /        \    
    		usa		eu                      country level
                              /  \   \
    			    by   ag   tr                company level
                           /  \
    			byu   byl ...                   location level
                            /   \ \
    			q18l  b151 c151 ...             building level	
    							(dynamic)	
    			                               (below here are
    							the objects and 
    							domains for things
    							like demprs. It goes
    						      down three more levels)
    
    		
                                                                    
    Second domain hierachy:
    
    
    			Bridge                          top domain
    		       /  \   \	
                    q18l  b151 c151 ...			buildings (static)
    							(with three levels
    							below!)
    
    
    After removing the domain .eu.by.byl.q18l from this "standalone" domain
    everything worked fine again.
    
    
    Somehow, I believe this is a bug. I always believed that one could have
    a domain as a member of many other domains. Does the problem occur
    here, because the two domains of which .eu.by.byl.q18l was a member of
    are not in the same domain hierachy? Are there any restrictions as to
    placing the same domain in two domain hierachies as we had done? I have
    placed domains twice within the main hierachy, once under USA and once
    under EU without problems.
