V1.3 SSB DECmcc on VAX 4000-500 running DECnet/OSI. when I use the iconic map interface to register a NODE4 (Phase IV) entity, I receive an error stating "Phase V hosts require address argument". the node is only partially registered. Is this a known problem? Al

Al, When you run MCC on a DECnet/OSI host the DNA4 AM needs the address of the phaseIV node as input to the register directive to complete the registration. This isn't necessary when you run MCC on a phaseIV host because there's a local network database the AM can query to get the address (internally it calls NML$SHARE, which isn't available on phaseV systems for obvious reasons). So, on a phase IV host you can... MCC> register node4 <xxx> synonym <yyy> and the registeration will complete, provided the node is in the hosts local database. If not, then you'll get a partial registration. When running on a phaseV host, you *must* give the DECnet phaseIV address arg. MCC> register node4 <xxx> synonym <yyy>, address = aa.nnn jp | |||||

Thanks John, I could have sworn I tried giving both the synonym and the address at first, but perhaps I got distracted. Just tried registering another NODE4 with both synonym and address and it took. Al | |||||
