4357.0. "DECmcc Ultrix v1.2.3 and Node4 Alarms problem" by EEMELI::KINNARI () Fri Jan 08 1993 09:52


Hi,

I have found interesting behaviour in DECmcc Ultrix V1.2.3.

I've defined about 20 Node4 alarm rules which are enabled at the
same time. The result is that I can see 0 to 4 alarms with
error message "Management protocol error". And no NICE packets
are sent to those nodes (I used Sniffer to figure it out).

If I enable 10 rules and the rest after 5 minutes, everything
works fine.

I have about 10 SNMP rules but those works fine. I don't use
exporting or any other activities in the system (DCMX is 
running but I think it doesn't matter in this case). 

I'm using following configuration:

DECstation 5000-133
64 Mb memory
Ultrix v4.3
DECmcc v1.2.3

I didn't have any problems in installation but several
"Node4 AM internal error" after that (for example if I tried to 
enable event logging or disable/enable rules using 2 FCLs 
simultaniously). DECmcc has hanged few times in different
operations.

I have changed required parameters and rebuilt kernel.

Has anyone seen this before? How can I troubleshoot this
further? Any hints ??
