The node name which comes back in a DNA5 event will _never_ be a synonym
type of name as you have specifiec in your request.  So the match will never
occur and you'll never get an event.  A phaseV nodename is a fullname.
So if you specified something like DEC:.nwo.nwomcc in the getevent directive
(or notify for that matter), you should see the events displayed.
Providing I got the fullname right for this example.  I assume you know
how this node has registered itself.

    In fact, as John and I discussed yesterday, ALL commands to Phase V
    nodes should be specified at the command line using their fullname
    (or abbreviations thereof).
    
    Thus NODE .nwomcc may be appropriate, as may NODE nwo.nwomcc and
    NODE DEC:.now.nwomcc
    
    When you specify the synonym (which, by the way is specified on a
    REGISTER command merely so one can reach the NODE from a Phase IV
    system) you are not specifying an alternate identifier for the NODE in
    the command line.
    
    Where you specify NODE NWOMCC that could be taken to mean:
    	NODE DEC:.NWOMCC
    which of course is not what you intended.

Are you absolutely sure the node is identifying itself as:

	"NORWAY_MCC:.NWO.NWOMCC"


Please give the command:

MCC> show node NORWAY_MCC:.NWO.NWOMCC all identifiers

There are two attributes returned; a NAME and an ADDRESS.
You should use the same name in your GETEVENT request as the node responded
from the request above.  Remember, it's an exact match; namespace as well.

Other considerations:

	1. Have you enabled the DNA5_AM SINK?
	   e.g.  MCC> enable mcc 0 dna5_am sink

	2. Have you setup the outbound stream correctly on node .NWO.NWOMCC?
	   Please give the following command and post the output.
	   MCC> show node NORWAY_MCC:.NWO.NWOMCC event dispatcher -
	   _MCC>  outbound stream * all char

	3. Have you ENABLE'd the outbound stream?

Below is an example of setting up the environment and getting
an event in MCC.  I'm runing the director and the DNA5 sink
on node DEC:.lkg.jaspie.  I'm telling node DEC:.lkg.glsair
(Ultrix DECnet/OSI) to send events to this node.

Note, if you are trying to get events from a router which doesn't
support DNS (like a DECnis), then you need to set the Sink Address
field instead of the Sink Node and Sink End User Name.
See the release notes for more info on that.

If you  take  .4  and .5 together then it is worth noting that if you have a
router  (e.g.  DECNIS) and you want to use GETEVENT then you *must* tell the
router  its name.  Otherwise it will not know what name to put in events and
mCC won't be able to match them against your GETEVENT.

See the DECNIS release notes for how to tell it its name (the RENAME command
is used).

	I have read notes 2659, 3528 and this entry. have also read the 
release notes for decnis . However , i still cannot get wanrouter events to 
sink to decmcc (V1.2). 

	- DNA5_AM SINK is enabled. Object MCC_EVL_SINK is present. 	

	- there is a logical link from the wanrouter to MCC_DNA5_EVL process.

8210    2.26 (E212R1)    000000A6  MCC_DNA5_EVL      12476  LES$EVENT

	
	- the name of the node is ETSA_SERVICES_NS:.Adelaide.Eastwood.212.e212r1
	as shown by ncl command show node e212r1 all ident.

	- the outbound stream specify sink address and sink end user name =
	MCC_EVL_SINK

	 Sink End User = Name = MCC_EVL_SINK
 Sink Address = {{{%X0113}, {DNA$ProtID$SessCtlV2 Name = MCC_EVL_SINK}, {DNA$Pro
tID$NSP}, {DNA$ProtID$RoutingV3 49::00-02:AA-00-04-00-18-08:20}}, {{%X0113}, {DN
A$ProtID$SessCtlV2 Name = MCC_EVL_SINK}, {DNA$ProtID$NSP}, {DNA$ProtID$RoutingV3
 49::00-02:AA-00-04-00-18-08:21}}}


	- mcc> getevent node ETSA_SERVICES_NS:.Adelaide.Eastwood.212.e212r1 
		any events  
		
	     Then generate an event on the wanrouter by disabling an x25
	     protocol dte . This gives no events .

	
	Should I have setup a sink on the mcc node similar to PhaseV_sink ?
	I not , where did I go wrong ? 

	All suggestions welcome. 


Andrew

    You didn't ask for the X25 protocol events.  You asked for Node events.
    Try
    
    MCC> getevent node x x25 prot dte * any event
    

    
    > Try
    >
    > MCC> getevent node x x25 prot dte * any event
    
    	This works... thanks.
