Alarm Notifier directory file growth / disk space issue

Products

• CA Spectrum

Issue/Introduction

We see logs for Alarm Notifier growing too large. Why are these files getting so big? 

Cause

Possible debugging is enabled but not needed

Environment

Release : 10.2

Component : Spectrum Core / SpectroSERVER

Resolution

Check the Alarm Notifier .alarmrc config file

<SPECROOT>/Notifier/.alarmrc

Check if there are any debugging enabled in the file from previous support cases/issues and remove the lines or comment them out. Restart Alarm Notifier for the debugging to stop logging. 

NOTE: If you are using Custom Alarm Notifiers be sure to check ALL your .alarmrc config files, even for the custom Notifier configurations.
