Issue/Introduction
We have a procAlive template applied to our SpectroSERVER processes. This is a problem on our secondary servers, because if sysedge checks during the online backup, it will generate an alarm, even though it is expected for the process to be down at that time. How can we temporarily disable this monitoring during the online backup time?
Environment
Release : 12.9
Component : VPM GENERAL
Resolution
You can essentially schedule the agent to be in maintenance mode when the OLB happens. To do that, there is an edgewatch utility in the $SystemEdge/bin directory. Cron it so you can set it to be "notInService" before the olb and turn it back on with "active" after.
