1977.0. "DECmcc V1.2 compatibility with previous version AM's ?" by KETJE::PACCO () Fri Dec 20 1991 16:30

    What is the status of the different access modules related to DECmcc
    V1.2 (EFT).
    
    I tried to install
    	MCCBMST012
    	MCCTKT012	O.K.
    	MCCELM010	O.K.
    but
    	MCCFDA010	IVP fails (ACCESS VIOLATION)
    	MCCTSAM010	IVP fails
    	MCCTRANSLAN010	IVP fails
    
    	What is the status of the commonly available AM's? Have these
    	already be installed successfully on a V1.2 system? Will they soon?
    	Will DECmcc V1.1 be upwards compatible for AM support ?
    	What are the AM's & FM's which are about to work in conunction
    	with DCEmcc EFT V1.2 ?

    What is the status of the different access modules related to DECmcc
    V1.2 (EFT).
    
    I tried to install
    	MCCBMST012
    	MCCTKT012	O.K.
    	MCCELM010	O.K.
    but
    	MCCFDA010	IVP fails (ACCESS VIOLATION)
>>>	This is  on  indefinate  hold  until after V1.2 when the effort
	will be re-assesed.  It has not be "upgraded" to work on V1.2.

    	MCCTSAM010	IVP fails
>>>	The LAA group  will  upgrade.    Check  with  Jim  Townsend for
	dates/details.

    	MCCTRANSLAN010	IVP fails
>>>	Previously discussed in this  conference.    If you cannot find
	discussion pls communicate with Doug McPherson offline.
    
    	What is the status of the  commonly available AM's?  Have these
	already be installed successfully on a V1.2  system?  Will they
	soon?
>>>	If you mean DNA4, DNA5,  SNMP,  etc.;  they are in BMS.  If you
	do not mean the above, pls specify.


    	Will DECmcc V1.1 be upwards compatible for AM support ?
>>>	If you mean will AMs written for V1.1  work  on  V1.2, then the
	answer is "it depends".  While it is clearly a goal to make the
	upgrades  upward  compatible woth no changes to the AMs/FMs, we
	are  under    presure  to  add  functionality,  port  to  other
	platforms, improve performance, etc.  If this means that subtle
	changes  are  required  that    make  upward  compatibilty  not
	automatic, then that is a  "wart"  we  must  be faced with.  We
	will  make  the  upgrade  as  easy    as   possible,  given the
	time/presures/resources.

    	What are the AM's & FM's which are about to work in conunction
    	with DCEmcc EFT V1.2 ?
>>>	All  (except  perhaps DECnet FDA and the TRANSLAN)  over  time.
	You will have to give the development groups time  to  upgrade.
	Are there any you are particularily interesetd in?

1977.2Don't use MCCELM010 with MCCBMST012CHRISB::BRIENENDECmcc Bridge|Station|SNMP Management.Mon Dec 23 1991 11:3617

  Don't use MCCELM010 with the DECmcc T1.2 kit!

  Successful installation (of MCCELM010) doesn't mean the software will
  work (I can guarantee that they won't).

  Please be patient: the next ELM kit (with Bridge Spanning Tree Mapping
  and Ring Mapping added) should be available by early January!

    Thanks for the overall status of the MM's related to V1.2.  I have no
    questions related to any specific MM.  The question was for general
    positioning of V1.2 today.
    
    Thanks,
    	Dominique.
