3660.0. "Datacollector in more domains." by HLRG02::SYSTEM (Incredible but . . . not true .) Tue Sep 01 1992 11:59

Hi,

I encountered a strange behaviour (bug) in the Datacollector.

I have the following domains:

			A
			|
	-------------------------------------
	|   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |   |
	B   C   D   E   F   G   H   I   J   K

       (XX)

In each domain I place a Datacollector with the same name.

Now I send a Datacollector event to MCC and the target entity is node XX in 
domain B.
So node XX in domain B changes color and domain B changes color, 
this is right BUT
also all domain icons C..K change color although in these domains is no entity
called node XX.
And in the notifications window I get 11 alarms in stead of 1. So I get an alarm
for each domain.


Please can anybody help me or make this clear to me.


Kindest regards,

/-/	Henk van Steeg.

3660.2Expected BehaviorRACER::daveAhh, but fortunately, I have the key to escape reality.Tue Sep 01 1992 12:2911
That is the expected behavior.  The event is going to each domain that
has a notification request running with the same collector.  The "a" domain
also appears to have a notification request running for it, and thats why you get
all 11 of the notifications.

If you want an example of how to set this up and make it work correctly,
see the MCC V1.2 demo kit.  NOTED::MCC-TOOLS note 18.* (I think)

To do what you want, we had to use different data collectors, and in some
cases, we had to create domains specifically for a small number of
entities (e.g. 1).  Look at how the circuits were set up...
