I am trying to add some phase 4 nodes to MCC. I am getting the
folowing:
MCC> REGISTER NODE4 .DNA_NODE.NEWSYS SYNONYM NEWSYS
Node4 ONTIME_NS:.DNA_NODE.NEWSYS
AT 12-SEP-1991 15:34:54
The requested operation cannot be completed
MCC Routine Error = %MCC-W-ENTUNKNOWN, unknown
entity: !AD
A test of the AM succeeds:
MCC> test mcc 0 dna4_am
MCC 0 DNA4_AM
AT 12-SEP-1991 15:37:36
Test Successful
MCC>
The node NEWSYS is defined in the NCP database.
The following is in the DNS clearinghouse:
DNS> SH CHAR CLEA ONTIME_CH
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.DNA$NODESYNONYM
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.MCC_UID
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.mcc_ip
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.DNA_NODE
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.RSM
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.DNA$BACKTRANSLATION.0001
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.DNA_BACKTRANSLATION
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.MCC
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.MCC_TERMINAL_SERVER_BACKTRANSLATION
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.DNA_NODESYNONYM
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.DNA$Node
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.MCC_BRIDGE_BACKTRANSLATION
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.DNA$BACKTRANSLATION
Directory _______________ ONTIME_NS:.MCC_STATION_BACKTRANSLATION
DNS>
Does anyone know what is happening here?
Thanks for any help.

| 1496.1 | .DNA_BACKTRANSLATION.%X49 and child dir's missing | TOOK::TAN | Ed Tan | Thu Sep 12 1991 19:44 | 22 |
That error message ENTUNKNOWN is returned from the kernel routine
mcc_dns_add_identifier when REGISTRATION FM tries to put in the
alternate identifier and create a link in DNS (on VMS). The routine
is complaining that it cannot find a certain directory (child) that it
needs in DNS.
From the SHOW CHAR CLEARINGHOUSE command, looks like you are
missing the DNS directory .DNA_BACKTRANSLATION.%X49 and all its child
directories
.DNA_BACKTRANSLATION.%X49.%X0001
.DNA_BACKTRANSLATION.%X49.%X0002
.DNA_BACKTRANSLATION.%X49.%X0003
.....
.DNA_BACKTRANSLATION.%X49.%X003D
.DNA_BACKTRANSLATION.%X49.%X003E
.DNA_BACKTRANSLATION.%X49.%X003F
Somehow you need to create these directories to register NODE4.

| 1496.2 | Try MCC_DNS_SETUP.... | TOOK::CAREY | Mon Sep 16 1991 15:46 | 18 | |
Yeah, it looks like the namespace isn't completely setup.
You can do it by hand, or you can run a DNS setup procedure:
@MCC_COMMON:MCC_DNS_SETUP.COM
This asks you a couple of questions about your namespace, and proceeds
to set up all (at least most) of the basic default directories required
to run DECmcc. Certainly contains all of the directories you'll need
for DNA4 and DNA5 management.
Before it even gets to the tricky questions it will spend about 1/2
hour setting up the environment. See the installation manual or the
release notes for more details if you want them.

Don't "do it by hand", use the command file. If you "do it by
hand", you'll miss something and then you'll really be stuck.
