4810.0. "Moving mcc to new hardware problem." by ASABET::POWER () Fri Apr 02 1993 10:18

    We are currently trying to migrate one of mcc hosts from a VAX ft310
    to a VAX 4300.  They've done the system backups and dumped them onto
    the new system(same system name). Mcc startup up fine, but it doesn't
    know about anything(domain,entities).  The disk name did change and
    we change the mcc logical file.  Still no information.  
    
    
    Any suggestions?
    
    Thanks,

Would you please elaborate on "doesn't know about anything" ?   I.e. post
some of the error text that you see.

You may also want to check file ownerships, protections and any logicals
pointing to the ethernet interface or hardware-specific devices.

4810.2I found my problemASABET::POWERFri Apr 02 1993 12:309
    I found the problem.  We use local MIR's to register all of our
    entities.  I was comparing one of our host to the other and found two
    extra files in the sys$specific:[mcc] directory.  they are
    MCC_DNS_ATT.DAT;1 and MCC_DNS_ENT.DAT;1(or were I should say).
    I temporarily renamed them and our mcc station came back.
    
    Thanks for the response.
