6122.0. "registering phaseV node ,using MIR" by GIDDAY::CHONG (Andrew Chong - Sydney CSC ) Mon Sep 26 1994 01:26

Hello,

	
When registering a phaseV node using the MIR as a repository, is it necessary 
to put an address tower in the address field to get a successful registration ?
I am hopeing that it would be a bit easier than that. 

I know that when dns is used, the node can be preregistered in dns and when 
registering the node in mcc, you only need to supply the full name and a 
synonym. But with the MIR, you cannot preregister a node and hence the address 
tower is not known .

I have not used MIR for node registration and may have overlook something 
fairly obvious. 

Any comments welcome.

6122.1registering phaseV node , using MIRAZUR::DURIFMon Sep 26 1994 06:547
Hello,

At MCC level the syntax is the same (i.e. register node .foo synonym foo)

No toweset to enter.

So where does it get the address information from ?
register node .foo synonym foo only yields a partial registration because the
address of foo is not known (although foo is defined in ncp).

6122.3registering phase V nodes using local MIRAZUR::DURIFWed Sep 28 1994 04:4822
Hello,

I tried follwing config.
- VMS phase IV node running MCC.
- i register a VMS phase V node.

On node running MCC the phase IV address of the phase V node is known.
You can check that using NCP by $ mc ncp sh node foo 
or using MCC by MCC> show node foo all attr

Note that you can do this event if node foo is not yet register with MCC.

if the command "show node foo all ident" work you have good chances the
registration will work.
The towerset is given in the identifiers.

Register  using the command :
register node .foo sun foo

Hope this helps,

Benoit
6122.4Successful experience of registering node V on phase IV director in MIR modeDSVB03::TABONEWed Sep 28 1994 05:5467
Hello Andrew,

I think that it is suffisant to declare your phase V node in NCP.
 
I do the following commands on an Ultrix and VMS phase IV MCC directors.
All lines beginning by ! are done in another session with NCP.

!ncp>sho node houka

Wait few seconds, because if you try to register immediatly it's run correctly 
because the link is always betweem mcc and the target node.
