142.0. "MCC module license missing caused startup failure" by GDJUNK::HOULE (Steve, NM is the future!) Fri Jun 01 1990 14:26

HI (I'm not a happy camper!!)

Summary:  MCC$startup shouldn't use the iconic PM (ui_trim) to do enrollment.


I rebooted my system today and MCC caused a MESS!
It seems my mcc iconic PM license expired -June 1st and since the
MCC$startup file is in my systartup grouped batch stream half of my
startup  failed. (I'm mad but i guess its my own fault. Yes, I know use seton.) 

The real point is that mcc$startup show only use the "MCC standard" software
and not "optional" modules so this kind of thing DOESN"T happen.
Here's what happened:
	"$ mcc/module=mcc$ui_trm"
	%MCC-E-LMF_FAILED, License check failed
So of cousre the rest of the MCC$startup failed and so did my set of batched
startups after MCC$startup.

Also, since mcc will use many licenses the MCC startup (including enrollment)
shouldn't fail  if one or more are missing; Warning message via console and/or
email would be appropriate.

Finally, when do WE get the NEW License??
Without tinkering it seems I can't even use MCC now!!!
  SYS-GSFMCC:: mcc
%MCC-E-LMF_FAILED, License check failed

What a way to start my day. ===Steve

It doesn't.  The mcc$ui_trm module is the command line presentation module,
not the iconic map.

>	"$ mcc/module=mcc$ui_trm"
>	%MCC-E-LMF_FAILED, License check failed

That's happening to a lot of people today.  See note 47.* for the latest
MCC licenses.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

142.2TRM failed its' license checkGOSTE::CALLANDERMon Jun 04 1990 19:485
    Also note that the TRM module is NOT optional. But like all other
    modules TRM has a license check in it. The reason your start up
    failed is because the TRM did not pass its' license check. When
    licenses expire you have to update them before trying to rerun.
    
142.3Explain "not optional"TOOK::SWISTJim Swist LKG2-2/T2 DTN 226-7102Wed Jun 06 1990 16:152
    I think you mean it's not separately packaged.   I hope there's no
    technical requirement that an MCC needs the TRM.
142.4TRM is defaultGOSTE::CALLANDERWed Jun 06 1990 18:264
    
    Didn't think I implied that, sorry if I did. Jim is right; TRM is
    *not* seperately packaged. In the version 1 product the command
    line interface is the default presentation module.
