Environment

Release : 8.51

Component : UIM NAS

Cause

It seems the problem occurs because in your environment the column NAS_ALARMS.alarm_manager does not exist. I consulted the specialists, and that column should be there since ems was first added, back in 8.47. Usually making sure you are on the newer release of NAS and dropping the back end tables to be recreated, should resolve the issue.

Resolution

1. Make sure you are on latest release of nas. Deactivate the nas probe and the ems probe

2. Drop the nas tables by executing the following queries. One by one. ***

DROP TABLE NAS_VERSION
DROP TABLE NAS_ALARMS
DROP TABLE NAS_TRANSACTION_SUMMARY
DROP TABLE NAS_TRANSACTION_LOG
DROP TABLE NAS_NOTES
DROP TABLE NAS_ALARM_NOTE
DROP TABLE NAS_CS_STATE_MONITOR

3. Start the NAS and the ems probes

4. The NAS_* should be recreated. Confirm the column alarm_manager exist in NAS_ALARMS
