5982.0. "Will MCC support the MAILbus 400 Message Store?" by WELTM1::CRIDDLE (Graham Criddle, MCS Tech Consultant, 853-4015) Fri May 06 1994 09:53

Hi...

Note 5974.1 suggests that there will soon be a new version of MCC.

Is it expected that this version will have support for the Message Store
module (a part of the MAILbus 400 product set).

On a related theme, when I try and register a Phase V node running
Message Store at the moment it fails to register (described in 1747 of
FORTY2::MAILBUS_400), and I don't know whether it is because it does not 
recognise the Message Store component or due to some other reason.

Any thoughts on this?

Rgds,
Graham

Your assumption is incorrect.  There will not be a new version of
MCC "very soon".

    Hi...
    
    Is there any reason why the message store Management Specification as
    provided by the product cannot be added to the MCC dictionary?
    
    (it may not be in the right form, but the data should be there)
    
    If this were possible, is anything else necessary to make it work?
    
    Rgds,
    Graham

MCC uses a private MSL syntax as opposed to the standard one promoted by ???? and
used by NCL and others.

The DSSR group manages all these MSL files and makes sure that the identifiers that
are contained in them are unique. This is a necessary condition for being included in
a dictionary. The DSSR group then makes the unique MSL file public or sends it back
to You if You wish to keep it private. (DSSR contact DSSR::LUND) 

Unfortunately You need more to access the Message Store: You will have to program an
agent that understands a language spoken by an access module that gets linked to MCC.
One way of getting rid of the access module is making the agent CMIP or SNMP
compiant. That way You can use a standard access module.


Hops this is the right answer,

Dirk

Hi, Dirk.

Thanks for the reply (I have been out for a week or so, so haven't
responded earlier)

It was not clear from point .2 but the MEssage Store is a module
under the NODE entity, so is manageable via CMIP. Does this
mean that all I need is the MSL included in some form into the MCC
dictionary?
