DECMCC BMS 1.2.7
Yesterday I installed BMS 1.2.7 on my system. I created a simple rule
to test the wildcard substitution:
CREATE MCC 0 ALARMS RULE ADJACENCY_DOWN -
EXPRESSION = (OCCURS(NODE4 router CIRCUIT * ADJACENT NODE * -
ADJACENCY DOWN)) ,-
CATEGORY = "circuit_events" ,-
PERCEIVED SEVERITY = Critical ,-
in domain .domain.test
everthing worked fine. The router changed the colour. After that I
redirected the output to the desired Icon via the "Assign Target"
window. On an other window I could see the incomong events, but no alarm
fired. Then I reseted the targeting with "DEASSIGN TARGET DOMAIN *".
But the simple alarm rule didn't fire. Then I did following test:
MCC>getevent node4 0 line sva-0 counters zeroed
when I zeroed the line counter, I got following Error:
Node4 0 Line sva-0
AT 19-MAY-1992 16:45:56 CONFIGURATION EVENTS
Internal error in DECnet Phase IV AM.
Do I have to install BMS again to resolve this problem ?

Using what mechanism were you able to see the incoming events? MCC? Opcom?
> Do I have to install BMS again to resolve this problem ?
I don't know yet.

OPCOM display:

Is the DNA4_EVL process still running? Have you tried killing it and restarting it? Any differences between the accounts that you successfully ran the first alarm rule in and the one you used subsequently? | |||||

>Is the DNA4_EVL process still running?
yes, the DNA4_EVL process is still running
>Have you tried killing it and restarting it?
yes, I have. The same message:
"MCC> getevent node4 0 line sva-0 counters zeroed "

| 3027.5 | could you please try this??? | KITFOX::BALL | Tue May 26 1992 15:45 | 61 | |
Can you try the following things:
( 1 ) stop the sink
MCC> disable node4 0 local sink monitor
( 2 ) examine your filter
MCC> show node4 0 outbound stream "the one in question" remote sink monitor all char
is the filter setup to catch events for line sva-0??? it should look something like
what you see below:
0.9 Counters zeroed is what is important in this case
Examination of Attributes shows:
EventsFilter = { (
Choice = C5,
Source_Entity = All Sources,
Event = { 0.0 event records lost,
0.1 automatic node counters,
0.2 automatic line counters,
0.3 automatic service,
0.4 line counters zeroed,
0.5 node counters zeroed,
0.6 Passive loopback,
0.7 Aborted service request,
0.8 Automatic counters,
0.9 Counters zeroed }
),
( 3 ) if it does not look like this try the following line
MCC> pass node4 0 outbound stream the_one_in_question remote sink -
monitor named event = { 0.* }
( 4 ) start the sink back up
MCC> enable node4 0 local sink monitor
( 5 ) do a show system to verify the process MCC_DNA4_EVL exists
( 6 ) in sys$login a new mcc_dna4_evl.log file should also exist
in mcc_dna4_evl.log the last 3 lines should look something
like what you see below:
Declared network object MCC_DNA4_EVL,22-MAY-1992 15:39:21.57
Wait for EVL link,22-MAY-1992 15:39:21.60
Connected to EVL,22-MAY-1992 15:39:31.18
it may take awhile especially if this system is heavily
loaded. so type out the file a few times...
( 7 ) look to see if the object is also there
MCC> show node4 0 object mcc_dna4_evl all attr
( 8 ) now do a getevent on the line to see if all is now correct
MCC> getevent node4 0 line sva-0 counters zeroed
( 9 ) now generate the event in another window
MCC> zero node4 0 line sva-0
( 10 ) if you still have no success please get in touch with me
offline at the following:
phone number: 226-5345
enet address: took::d_ball
i hope this has been of some help...
