Re: SIM keeps sending alerts even after condition has cleared

SIM keeps sending alerts even after condition has cleared

HP SIM 4.2 with SP1 on W2K

Coming back to SIM to see if I can't get this working.

The alert messages come from HPUX 11.23 systems and are configured via Event Monitoring Service.

Trouble I have is that the SIM keeps sending the alert messages even after the error condition has been cleared.

Example, a filesystem full alert from HPUX/EMS is sent to the SIM server via SNMP trap with severity critical. I get the message OK. I clear the filesystem and thus clear the condition. However the SIM keeps sending the message, even after the condition has been cleared. I can stop the SIM alerts only by disabling the Automatic Event that I created.

Question, once the condition has been cleared how do I tell SIM that this condition has been resolved? How do I rearm the event(s)?

Thanks

Re: SIM keeps sending alerts even after condition has cleared

I get the feeling that SIM is not a worthwhile product. In my short experience with it, I am so NOT impressed with this product.

If somebody can provide me some directions to change my mind, I'm all ears.

4.2 SP2 should fix your problem. Give it a try.

Moving to another platform. Going the Linux route.

Many thanks!
