166.0. "ENS notification problem" by BACHUS::WILLEMSG () Mon Jan 17 1994 16:15

	Hello,

	I have a problem with EVENT notification in PCM.
	In VCS you have a configuration and a notification editor.
	In PCM you have only one ? I created an event VOLVO with
	console text "Dit is een test".	Put it in a scan profile
	associated with my node and created a filter to specify the 
	action to be taken on the event.
	I connect to my node BRSSWS and type the console text
	"Dit is een tekst", but I don't get a colour change in the C3
	or an ENS window ?
	What did I wrong ? I activated the CONSOLE$DEBUG logical but
	I didn't found any information about the problem.


	Any help is welcome.

	Thanks in advance,

	Geert

Geert,
      I think you need to look at the manuals a bit before putting too many
questions in here. 

Your action dispatches in the filter record have invalid user data being passed
for the actions you have specified. The required userdata for each action is
documented in the action description.

If after reading the docs you still have problems let us know.

Cheers Simon......

    
    
    Phil,
    
    Yeah, RTFM. I know but someone has taken my book for a few days
    and just now I have a free day so I could play with PCM.
    I will wait on the manual.
    
    Thanks anyway.

Geert,

    this is Simon speaking NOT Phil!!

    The books are on line in bookreader format. You can access them from in the 
  DECwindows editor using the help button.

   Cheers SImon...

    Gert,
    
       You made no mention of a reconfigure command in your base note.
    If you made any changes to the database, you must reconfigure so that
    the main console manager process will read in the new database. If this
    doesn't work, you can try shutting down PCM and restarting. The 
    reconfigure code is new and might be a bit shaky.
