2311.0. "Configuration Event Size for Event Manager?" by TAEC::MCDONALD () Tue Feb 11 1992 14:54

    Is it possible to configure the SIZE of the events passed
    thru the Event Manager? 
    For example I have an event which contains a set of FullEntityNames.
    When this set becomes >= 100 FullEntityNames (event size 7622)
    then I get the following error from my Getevent directive:
    %MCC-F-EVENTINTERNERR, Event Manager internal error
    
    So is it possible to configure the Event Manager to pass larger events?

2311.1No, CVR is misleading, IPC is the limitationDORIOT::T_HUPPERThe rest, as they say, is history.Tue Feb 11 1992 17:0221
    I assume Ultrix and DECmcc T1.2.4.
    
    There are no tunings in the Event Manager for size of event data, as it
    depends on the buffer given to it (the out_p buffer from the mcc_call
    routine).
    
    I find, in the code, that the Event Manager may be returning a bad CVR.  The
    real problem seems to be that our IPC limits us to out_p buffers (at the
    mcc_call with the Getevent (or any other) directive) of 4K bytes.  The Event
    Manager should be returning MCC_S_INSUFBUFFER because of this limitation. 
    This CVR needs to be fixed.
    
    Do you get any events of larger than 4K (event_data) to succeed?  If so,
    then there is something here that I don't understand.
    
    If the 4K byte out_p limitation is inadequate, then a QAR should be filed
    against the EXEC component.  V1.2 development is rapidly coming to a close. 
    Without a QAR in-hand, we will not be able to make any change here (no
    guarantee we can make it with a QAR, either).
