5306.0. "Assign target problem" by WHOS01::WARD () Tue Jul 06 1993 19:14

I am testing to see if I can get target notification to work but am running
into a problem. (DECmcc V1.2.3)

I have done a number of target assigns and deassigns now I have ended up in a 
situation that when I assign a target I get "Assignment already exists, no
changes made."

But if I do a

MCC>DIRECTORY TARGET DOMAIN *

it displays "No matching targeting entry found." for each domain

and when I do a dump of MCC_SYSTEM:MCC_TARGET_DATA_MIR.DAT there appears
to be a couple of target assignments that I had previously deassigned.

Is this a known problem? If so, is there a solution or work around?

Basically what I am try to do is get the node icon of the node that I am
checking the reachability of instead of the router node icon foe when a
specific alarm fires which is:

Create domain computer_room rule billc_remote_node_state -
expression = (Node4 ndlan remote node billc state = unreachable, -
  at every 00:02:00) -
category = "Node unreachable" -
description = "node billc has become unreachable" -
alarm fired procedure = mcc_common:mcc_alarms_mail_alarm.com -
alarm exception procedure = mcc_common:mcc_alarms_mail_exception.com -
alarm fired parameters = "mccsta::mcc" -
severity = critical

For a sanity check what should my target assignment look like?

Another problem which I have not looked into yet is that no mail is received
when the alarm fires. Any ideas?

Thanks for any assistance, much appreciated.

5306.1Re-create the MIRsTRKWSH::COMFORTHere beside the rising tideThu Jul 08 1993 16:547
    
    Maybe you have corrupted target MIRs.  You may want to try renaming
    (or just blowing away) the target MIR data files.  I believe the
    software will re-create them when you assign a new target.  I seem to
    remember running into this before.

5306.2Maybe your notification was not enabled successfullyCUJO::HILLDan Hill-Net.Mgt.-Customer ResidentTue Aug 10 1993 13:437
    I have this problem every time I try to enable a notify request on a
    node with insufficient resources, or one that is not fully registered. 
    Look at "Notify requests..." and watch the status of the requests
    during the enabling process.  Check each one that reports the problem
    you mentioned to see that all is in order.
