6072.0. "no events with vms 6.0 and OSI" by HLFS00::TIMMERMANS_A () Mon Aug 08 1994 19:05

    I am trying to get Phase IV and Phase V events into DECmcc without
    succes,
    
    I am running VMS 6.0, DNS 2.0, OSI 5.7 and DECmcc 1.3
    
    Following the notes file about this I did:
    
    install the MCCKRNECO01013 patch to get rid of the CMA errors
    MCC_DNA5_EVL.LOG
    
    MCC> enable MCC 0 dna5_am sink
    
    There are no errors in MCC_DNA5_EVL.LOG anymore
    
    then I created an extra outbound stream in NCL
    
    NCL> CREATE NODE 0 EVENT DISPATCHER OUTBOUND STREAM MCC_SSO
    NCL> SET NODE 0 EVENT DISPATCHER OUTBOUND STREAM MCC_SSO -
    _NCL> sink node = SSOMCC_NS:.UTO.SSOMCC
    NCL> SET NODE 0 EVENT DISPATCHER OUTBOUND STREAM MCC_SSO -
    _NCL> sink end user name = MCC_EVL_SINK
    ENABLE NODE 0 EVENT DISPATCHER OUTBOUND STREAM MCC_SSO
    
    OUTBOUND STREAM MCC_SSO state is On connected.
    
    setting up a window with
    
    MCC> getevent node * event dispatcher any event
    
    With receiving a lot of events via opcom, nothing is seen by the
    getevent.
    
    MCC> test node SSOMCC event dispatcher
    
    gives no trigger on the getevent window, what am I doing wrong?
    
    following some ncl output
    
    NCL>sho event disp outbound stream mcc_sso all attr

If you want to receive phase V events, you must set correctly the
outbound stream filters :

"test node SSOMCC event dispatcher" generates the Test requested event
on the event dispatcher entity.
Your filters are set in such a way that this event will be blocked.

To be sure an event is passed by an outbound stream, use testevent directive.

Here try 
ncl> testevent node 0 event dispatcher outbound stream MCC_SSO event = (Node
SSOMCC_NS:.UTO.SSOMCC Event Dispatcher, Test requested)


In the similar way, to receive phase IV events, you must set your filters
in order to let pass events from (Node event dispatcher relay logging ) entities
, since phase IV events are relayed to the local event dispatcher by relay
entity.

Hope it will help.

    Thanks Vincent,
    
    It works fine now, I overlooked the filters.
