Hi, This has been covered many times before, and I apologise for covering it again, but I'm failing on this miserably :- Customer site is connected to multiple DECnet Phase IV areas, and have two hundred DECnet nodes in their area (area 9). I want to use DECnet adjacency up/down events through the MCC_DNA4_EVL into OCCURS rules for 10 of these nodes, the other systems are PC's and I don't want to overload the operator with alarms. I would also plan on using targetting to get the node4 that is unreachable to change colour, not the node checking (the router). The 10 nodes I need to get alarms for are spread across two domains. I have followed the examples in the manual and can get various bits of this all working but not the whole. Can someone whose succeeded in this post some example occurs rules and targetting that will cover 10 nodes across all domains. If it's any help the ten node4 entities are the only node4 entities on those two domains so could some wildcarding be done on the targetting ? Thanks for any help and examples, Euan

Euan, this is the procedure I use to demo targetting in class. It needs some editing on nodenames and passwords (@defqual.com). You also may want to modify the BLOCK command into PASS for test purposes. May be it helps Wolfgang $ set ver $! mcc_dna4_adjacency.com 7-apr-1993 $!

Thanks for the reply. I ended up using the event sink setup as in your procedure (and the MCC_DNA4_EVL command procedure), and then used Notify requests to only pick up the specific nodes I was interested in. This works fine but does mean the list of notify requests from the Notifications window is quite long (15 entries at the moment). Doesn't seem to affect performance so it's staying ! Thanks again, Euan | |||||

it should not be a major performance hit, if any, using the mutliple notify commands. The design of the notification services shares threads as much as possible so that the overhead of a new notify command is extremely limited, especially if it is on the same domain or for events on the same set of entities. |
