21.0. "ENS bugs, problems, quirks, etc" by VINO::DBIGELOW (Innovate, Integrate, Evaporate) Thu Sep 24 1992 23:24

Regarding ENS:

-    Does not shut down when shutting down CM. CM will not come up id ENS is
     running.

-    Not all events are being detected. Apparently there is a hard-coded 
     limit of events. I tested the 'UNIX' scan profile. Not all the events
     were being detected.

-    If an action 'command' is not defined properly, how can I debug it?
     In other words, I think I have what is a properly defined action and
     watch records. However, nothing ever happens. Is there some type
     of log file present indicating what went wrong?

-    Should the database come loaded with some defined action routines?
     It seems like this would be easy to do.

Dave,

  This will occur if you do not have the Console Manager shutdown event
  defined in the database, can you check that it is there?

  There is no hard-coded limit, can you describe more fully the circumstances
  upon which the events were not detected, have you tried sending a file with
  all the events in question to the console to see if they are all picked up?

>-    If an action 'command' is not defined properly, how can I debug it?

  At the moment, no, we have disabled the logging facility, as we had some
  problems with it, it will be reenabled soon.

  Yep, and the actions should have been loaded for you via the template
  import file (/usr/kits/DCR100/templates/cm_config.PORT) I will take a
  look at this.

Cheers,
Phil

    Phil,
    
       Here's some additional re -.1:
    
    I don't have the name of the CM shutdown event, so I don't know if I
    have it or not. IFT2 was an upgrade for me. Perhaps IFT1 did not have
    all of the action routine definitions nor the shutdown event defined.
    I can delete the database and re-install th kit to see if that helps.
    The only bummer is that I cannot restart the CM daemon if ENS is
    running. I must first kill off the ENS process before I issue a
    cm_startup command.
    
    Regarding the event limit: It would appear that it is only picking up
    the first event and that's it. It may have something to do with the 
    fact the action routine is not getting kicked off properly.
    I'll prod around more little more today.
