Issue/Introduction

When running Logmon it makes the UIM hub run slowly, and I see many messages being created.

 

Cause

Checking Dr. Nimbus, it was found that it was flooded with one of the messages created by a logmon profile where check interval was 5 seconds. 

 

<TDR>
      active = yes
      interval = 5 sec
    scanfile = /xxx/xxxxx.json
      fileencoding = 
      scanmode = updates
      alarm = no
      qos = no
      message = yes
    subject = MY_CUSTOM_MESSAGE

 

Environment

Release : 9.2.0

Component : UIM LOGMON

Resolution

The solution is to check the profile and fine tune it in such a way that so many messages are not generated. Increasing the check interval helped reduce the number of messages.
