Conference azur::mcc

I have seen this problem also in V1.3.

Actually the command which fails in mcc_dna4_evl_setup.sh is
the last (ENABLE node4 ...).

But when you run mcc_dna4_evl_setup.sh again then it fails
in the first command (disable node4 ...).

And if you use Decnet IV AM after that it's completely
unstable.

But if you restart decmcc (as Rick said) everything is OK.

I'm sure that nobody can deny that this behaviour is abnormal.
Is there anyone who has succeeded in using mcc_dna4_evl_setup.sh
script and over all using decnet events and decmcc in decnet phase
4 node ? If yes, please give the exact commands how you did it.
There must be something wrong with me (or in software) because
I can't do it ...

    Well, I'm glad that I'm not the only one this has happened to, but I'm
    a little disappointed that no one has responded.
    
    I've tried the procedure several times and as you mentioned now have a
    very unstable DECmcc.  I even re-installed everything from scratch. 
    But after trying this procedure again, sometimes I can't even pull up
    any domains from the Iconic Map.  Sometimes the maps and domains come
    up, sometimes they don't.
    
    And after attempting a simple rule to poll my system for counters
    zeroed, which worked, my disks started churning like crazy and my cpu 
    slowed down tremendously. After rebooting, the same thing occurred. 
    But I show no background tasks running.
    
    I'm certainly confused.  This is my first try at the Ultrix version of
    DECmcc and I never had these kinds of problems in VMS.

How did you install and configure the system? (in detail)

    This sort of sounds like you're using an old dispatch table.
    What would happen then is the entrypoint into the new version
    of the DNA4 AM wouldn't match the 'real' location and you'd be jumping
    in at some random point.  Try re-enrolling the am which would update
    the dispatch table, and see if the problem goes away.

    Dave,
    
    I hope you see this.  I know it's been a long time since I put this
    note in.  I had to de-install DECmcc due to disk space limitations.  I
    recently (last week) re-installed.
    
    I'm running 4.3 Ultrix on a DECstation 3100 with 24 megs of memory. I 
    basically just installed using the defaults.  (I realize this config is
    not the recommended one, but I am just experimenting.  I use to run
    demos on a VAXstation 3100 model 30 and it was incredibly slow but
    never had problems like this.)
    
    I edited the script mcc_dna4_evl_setup.sh and replaced the os_node with
    my node name, just trying to sink events to myself.  As soon as I run
    the script I encounter the same error again.
    
    I installed the VMS version of this many times doing MCC startups and
    also for demos and I never had this problem.  But not knowing much
    about Ultrix, I am looking for something that I've done wrong.  Any
    help would be appreciated.
    
    Here is the screen output from running the script.  The first time I
    ran it the internal DECNET error happened at the end of the script. 
    Now it happens at the beginning and the end - not liking the line to
    DISABLE or ENABLE the sink.
    
    Thanks,
    
    Rick

    Internal error in DECnet Phase IV AM.
    
    

    I just tried to re-enroll my DECNET Phase IV am and got the message:
    
    MCC> enroll Phase_IV_DECnet
    Cannot find MM file
    %MCC-E-ENROLL_FAILED,  enrollment failed: table is not fully inserted.
    
    
    I'm might be doing something wrong... I don't have much documentation.
    
    Rick

I'm not sure why you need to re-enroll, but if you want, try

    MCC> enroll mcc_dna4_am
