Hi All,
What would be the eventrule to generate an alarm (fffffff1) if an event
(ffffffff) is not generated in 10 Minutes.
I can not find the right rule for eventDisp.
Thank you
Frank

And what if the AlarmNotifier process is up but has stopped processing alarms
... a not uncommon occurrence with Notifier :-(
A more complete solution would be to create a 'heartbeat' alarm - a scheduled
CLI script will do the job - that is processed by Notifier. This could be
passed to a 3rd party app which would need to be able to flag an alarm if the
heartbeat is not received in a set timeframe. We have a customer doing this
where NSM is the 3rd party app.
Thinking it through there is no reason the 'heartbeat' alarm couldn't be used
to create an event in Spectrum from Notifier. This would need a change to the
SetScript to process the heartbeat separate from other alarms but that
shouldn't be too difficult. You would then need to create an event rule that
will create an alarm when the event is not seen in a set timeframe.

The best way to accomplish this would be to create a model (e.g., Host_Device
if a windows box) that represents the SpectroSERVER. Name it simply
"SpectroSERVER". Then go to the System Resources > Running Processes and
create a monitor point for the AlarmNotifier process.
Voila! If it stops running, an alarm will be generated against the
SpectroSERVER model identifying the name of the process that stopped.
It couldn't be easier than that!
