Corrected and Known Anomalies
Enterprise Alarm Manager
Software Release Notes Page 69
Problem 8: On the Solaris platform, after creating a pingable in a topology
view, enter a model name in the Filter area, select the model name table,
then type in the model name entry, the filter interface closes and you are
taken back to the main Enterprise Alarm Manager view.
Solution: It has been determined that this is a Neuron Data problem and
that pressing this button is unreliable and may not work. SPECTRUM is
working with Neuron Data on this problem.
Problem 9: In SPECTRUM 5.0r1 CS2/MMS2 & P72, neither the Alarm
Manager nor the Event View can be started without receiving traceback
errors and a segmentation fault. Attempting to perform an X re-display is
not a supported configuration.
Solution: Official support for redirecting an X display either UNIX to
UNIX or using eXceed’s X Server will be made available in a future release
of SPECTRUM.
Problem 10: When launching the Enterprise Alarm Manager (EAM) from
the Universe view (either on the Topology view’s background or from the
VNM icon), the EAM opens but never fills with alarms. In addition, you
receive a message similar to the following:
Landscape <spectrumÕs location> (0x400000): Response not
received in time.
Solution: Launch EAM from the Tools menu which should work fine.
Also, you can increase the Mail Response Timeout preference on the
Connection tabbed page of the Preference dialog. Also make sure the VNM
is not too busy when invoking EAM from the Icon Subviews menu. This
problem will be corrected in a future release of SPECTRUM.
Problem 11: When add two Advanced filters to the Advanced Filter list in
the Filter dialog and click Select All, both filters become selected. When
you click the bottom filter so it becomes the only filter selected and then
click Modify, the filter disappears.
Solution: This problem will be corrected in a future release of
SPECTRUM.
