728.0. "TSAM alarms bug! INSUF_BUF s/w error?" by ZPOVC::RAMARAJ () Sat Feb 16 1991 01:09

I was trying out an alarm condition with TSAM on V1.1 kit and the following 
problem surfaced.

According to the DECmcc error messages manual, it says, the developers need
to increase the buffer size.

Could someone look into this please.

Following is the mail alarm:

728.1ALARMS FM bug?SCRPIO::LIZBICKIMon Feb 18 1991 16:208
   
   This may be a problem with the Alarms FM.  Does the Alarms FM handle
   the CVR MCC_S_INSUF_BUF (with handle state set to MORE)?  Does it
   allocate a larger buffer and re-issue the call again, as the FCL
   and Iconic Map do?

728.2Yup: You found a bug!WAKEME::ANILMon Feb 18 1991 17:1312

  re: .-1

  Lynne is absolutely right. I am sorry I took some time to respond. Yes
  Raj has uncovered a bug in Alarms code. We are indeed not handling 
  the CVR MCC_S_INSUF_BUF. I will also QAR Alarms on this. Thanks
  for letting us know about this problem.
 
  V1.1 SSB kit should not have this problem. Sorry for the inconvenience.

   Does this mean that there are changes between the MCS_A and the 
   final (SSB) kit?

   Raj -

   Until this problem is fixed in the Alarms FM, you will be unable to
   set alarm conditions based on Terminal_Server Port entity Characteristic 
   or Initial Atrtributes (These are the only cases where the Terminal
   Server AM returns the insufficient buffer error).

   You should be able to use the Alarms FM with the Terminal Server AM
   with the exceptions above.

728.5changes between mcs_a and ssbGOSTE::CALLANDERTue Feb 19 1991 16:058
    RE .3
    
    Yes Lynne there will be changes between the mcs_a and ssb kits.
    The guidelines allow for the correction of priority 1 and 2 QARS.
    For more information on this I will send you a note off-line.

	Yup! We will modify Alarms FM so that you can write rules
	on any AM that needs a buffer >2048. With this change Alarms 
	will be SRM compliant!
