  • 1.  Robot rebot alarm

    Posted Aug 31, 2017 09:56 AM

    Hi All,

     

    Need help to create an alarm when server gets rebooted. One of the monitored server got rebooted recently and robot inactive alarm was generated. However server came back in 2-3 min. and alarm got cleared automatically. Hence nobody noticed server was restarted. Is there any way we can set alarm which does not clear automatically when server reboot. 

     

    Regards,

    Ragesh M

    Hello,

     

    You can use the CDM probe to do this. There's an option which generates an alarm when the probe detect the server has rebooted.

    " Detected reboot in the Alarm on section to generate an alarm when the probe detects a system reboot."

    I invite you to have a look there if you need help on the configuration: cdm IM Configuration - CA Unified Infrastructure Management Probes - CA Technologies Documentation

    Did you try changing the configuration of the "BootAlarm” message in the Message Pool? That would require a small change in the package (or cfx, or template) but you should be able to raise the severity of the alarm.
