here's what file said like it thought we use ps4.5 Carl

[ODBC]
DRIVER=SQL Server
UID=SA-CitrixFarm
Trusted_Connection=Yes
DATABASE=CitrixPS45
WSID=CITRIX4
APP=Citrix IMA
SERVER=SYSPROSERVER
Description=Citrix Data Store
<grin> Carol?

Yes, MFCOM must be started.  But discovery will not run if the data store cannot be contacted.

Even if the data store is down, the farm will continue to run forever as long as the local host cache exists AND the license server has been contacted at least once.
You need to make sure this server:

SERVER=SYSPROSERVER

can be contacted and this user account:

UID=SA-CitrixFarm

has NOT had its password changed.

yes cannot start them MFCOM and IMA
not sure if related but cannot find server farm when doing discovery so cannot get into config
our website which runs from a CAG is not working and i have deployed new logon point but not working
SOunds like your data store is not accessible or the password changed for the user account.
