Event & Alarm Management
Corrected Issues: Event & Alarm Management
Item Problem Resolution
1 Alarm Manager: The user was seeing a
memory leak when running their Corba
application in 6.5.0.
This was resolved by adjusting the code
to remove the leak.
2 Alarm Manager: ReadOnly only users
(ADMIN, 5-9 or anything, 5-9) did not
have access to the information or
buttons in the Location Tab within any of
the PGUI applications. This was only
found to be the case for port models and
only found to be a problem with 6.5.0
and 6.5.1. If a ReadWrite user accessed
the Location Tab for the same model in
any of the PGUI apps (Alarm Manager,
Search Manager, Event Manager), there
was no problem. The ReadWrite user
could not only see the Location Tab
information, they could also use the
button to navigate to the model.
This was resolved by adjusting the
registry for ID_TOP_MH
(CsIHTechSubIntBase) to only require
read only privileges.
3 AlarmNotifier: The order in which the
notification data was given to
AlarmNotifier was following reverse
order.
This was resolved by changing the order
in which the notification data is given.
4 AlarmNotifier: AlarmNotifier didn't
update when a new event was added to
an existing alarm.
This was resolved by modifying the
event field of the alarm stored in SANM
upon an event change.
5 AlarmNotifier: The
AlarmNotifier
resource
STREAM_EVENT_MWSSAGE was
not working if placed at the end of the
.alarmrc file.
This was resolved by adjusting the code
to function regardless of where the
message is located within the file.
6 AlarmNotifier: AlarmNotifier was
experiencing performance issues and not
processing new alarms after adding new
landscapes to a policy. When invoking a
SSAPI request to get an Alarm
Management model, the pending
SpectroSERVER requests were increased
but never decreased when a notification
was received.
This was resolved by adjusting the code
to correctly decrement the pending
SpectroSERVER requests for a SSAPI
request to get an Alarm Management
Model.
