Broker goes down on occassion for both Development and Production boxes

Products

• CA Harvest Software Change Manager - OpenMake Meister

Issue/Introduction

Once in a while we have the broker go down on the development box (about every 3-4 weeks) and on the production box (maybe once in 6 weeks). Not sure why. How can we find the reason for this?

Environment

CA Harvest SCM all platforms and versions

Cause

In searching through the hserver logs there were several places where the HServer lost connection with the Oracle database:

20180725HServer11784.log (1 hit) 
2018/07/25 07:56:46 Line 19: -- HServer Disconnected from the Data Source 

The dates and times were the same as when the outages were observed.

Resolution

Looks like Oracle and/or server is being taken down without our knowledge.

Any time the Oracle database goes down or is restarted, the SCM Broker should be shut down and restarted as well.
