2661.0. "Dispatch local management module file access erorr during probe" by NEXUS6::BERNECICH () Tue Mar 31 1992 11:23

Hi,
I've installed mcc ft 1.2.15 on my vs3100/76 vms 5-4.2. 32mb
the installation procedure have worked without problems.
Start with "mana/enterp/interf=decw" but I don't use it because
an error message appears :
Management Window Message : dispatch local management module
file access erorr during probe.

I don't use it means that all operation(show set,export,ecc.)
from decwindow interface respond with the same error message.

While from application I select  DecMCC Command Line (FCL)
and it work fine but decwindow interface has problems

The only way to solve the problem exit and reenter in decwindow mcc
more than one times until the problem disappears but next day
I will have  the same problem

Many Thanks
Enrico

2661.1Another file access error during probeCUJO::HILLDan Hill-Net.Mgt.-Customer ResidentTue Sep 15 1992 16:0810
    I have encountered this same problem running DECmcc V1.2.0 (SSB).  
    Everything is fine when commands are issued from FCL.  When I restart
    the IMPM, things run VERY slowly for a few minutes, then all is well. 
    
    When I say things run slowly, I mean that mouse clicks in the map
    window don't show results for several seconds, even on menu items.
    
    All other windows on workstation are fine.

When you start up IMPM, do you by any chance open a large
domain hierarcy?  If so, that's what is taking the time.

How frequently does the "file access error during probe"
problem appear?
2661.3More on file access error during probe + IMPM problemsCUJO::HILLDan Hill-Net.Mgt.-Customer ResidentWed Sep 16 1992 14:3429
    Pete,
    
    	I am opening a domain with many members, but I only have five
    domains total, and the hierarchy is only two deep.
    
    	The "file access error" occurs often enough to make DECmcc almost
    unuseable, though I have noticed that the problem does not seem to
    occur as much since I increased VIRTUALPAGECNT to 100000.
    
    	The "slowness" to which I was referring showed up again last night. 
    The DECwindows map window, and the Notification window simply freeze. 
    DECmcc continues to process alarms, but the map window has a pulldown
    operations menu that is partially painted and is a separate entity from
    the map window.  That is to say, I can collapse the map window and the
    pulldown menu remains fixed in place and unmoveable.
    
    	In addition, the map window menu bar has disappered.  No error
    messages appear in the IMPM startup window.  I have had to Ctrl-Y out
    from the startup window on 3 occassions in order to restart DECmcc.
    
    	I can't stress the importance of getting these problems fixed.  I
    am trying to get two management stations set up in an operational
    environment for my customers, but all they see is garbage.
    
    	We are currently running VMS V5.5-1 and DECwindows, DECmcc V1.2.0
    on a VAXstation 3100/SPX Model 38 and a VAXstation 4000 Model 60.
    
    Thanks,
    Dan
