BUG: Admin: Snap-in Does Not Recognize the Local Machine Name

 Last reviewed: March 20, 1998
Article ID: Q182638
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft COM Transaction Integrator for CICS and IMS version 1.0 included with SNA Server version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

Inadvertently, you can add the local computer's COMTI snap-in to Microsoft Management Console (MMC) twice. The first time is by adding the local snap- in; the second time is by adding the same snap-in, having first selected the local machine name.

To demonstrate the problem, perform the following steps:

  1. Start the COMTI Administration Tool; that is , start MMC with local machine snap-in for COMTI.

  2. On the Console menu, select Add/Remove SnapIn.

  3. Add COM Transaction Integrator snap-in.

  4. In the Chooser dialog box, select Another Computer and type the name of the local computer.

You end up with two copies of the Administration snap-in, which can confuse later updates.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft COM Transaction Integrator for CICS and IMS version 1.0. A supported fix is now available for SNA Server version 4.0, but has not been fully regression-tested and should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. Unless you are severely impacted by this specific problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Service Pack that contains this fix. Contact Microsoft Technical Support for more information.
