SystemEDGE SRM AIM running duplicate tests

Products

• CA Virtual Assurance
• CA Spectrum

Issue/Introduction

We have configured 60 SPM tests in Spectrum, but the SystemEDGE host has over 1,000 tests defined in the svcrsp.cf file and many of them are duplicates.

Environment

• Spectrum Any version
• SystemEDGE 5.9
• SystemEDGE Service Response AIM

Cause

• The cause of the duplicate tests has not been determined at this time.

Resolution

• Perform a cleanup of the tests on the SystemEDGE host:

1. Stop SystemEDGE.
2. Navigate to the C:\Users\Public\CA\SystemEDGE\<port#>\plugins\svcrsp folder.
3. Delete all instances of svcrsp.cf from this folder.
4. Start SystemEDGE.

• If the SPM tests in Spectrum are scheduled, the tests will be put back into the svcrsp.cf file the first time the test runs after the agent restart. 
• If the SPM tests in Spectrum are not scheduled, the tests will need to be manually run from Spectrum before they are put into the svcrsp.cf file. 

Additional Information

• The Destination ID value within the Spectrum Console under Locator > SPM > All Tests will match the Index Number for each test within the svcrsp.cf file on the agent.
• The svcrsp.cf file is located under C:\Users\Public\CA\SystemEDGE\<port#>\plugins\svcrsp
