4626.0. "v1.1-v1.2-v1.3" by BRSTR1::MERTENS (yves) Tue Mar 02 1993 08:50

    
    
    
      Hi,
    
    
      If you have a DECMCC V1.1 station can you install 
      on this V1.3 of DECMCC or do you have first to install V1.2 
      OF DECMCC?
    
    
      Regards,

	I would say, It depends... Is it a customer site? Are there many SNMP entities registered? Are there many alarm rules defined? You can apply V1.3 to a V1.1 system but you must perform several upgrade tasks. Please read the V1.3 release notes well in advance of the installation. In V1.2 there were changes to SNMP entities. In V1.3 there are additional changes. One is that the entitiy instance names for SNMP entities change so you need to plan in advance what the new "registered names" will be. It doesn't change the internet name though. I would save all my alarm rules with the SYS$SYSTEM:MCC_ALARMS_EXTRACT_RULES.EXE program and copy the resulting file to a safe place. I would save my instance store (on general principles) using the MCC_DUMP_NS.COM procedure. This does come on the V1.3 kit but you can get it over the network at NETS::USER$NETS:[DECMCC.S-KIT]MCC_DUMP_NS.COM You may want to study the resulting file to see if it got everything. Is the system configuration sufficient? V1.2 and V1.3 have the same requirements and they are more than what was needed for V1.1. s/rob
