Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

I followed the process for stopping the incidents which were getting generated while robots were in maintenance mode. After 1 day, This table gets recreated again.

Do I need to delete this table again and again? Please tell me that how this table can deleted permanently.

Or as we have deleted the table once, has it fixed the issue.

1. Deactivate nas probe.
2. Deactivate maintenance_mode probe.
3. Drop the below table.

MAINTENANCE_WINDOW

4. Activate maintenance_mode probe.
5. Activate nas probe.

Environment

Release : 20.3

Component : UIM MAINTENANCE MODE

Cause

- misinformation

Resolution

There is no need to delete the maintenance table nor any of the maintenance tables for that matter. If there is some reason you need to do so, you can simply TRUNCATE the table to delete the rows but you should not DROP it. Once you activate the maintenance_mode probe the maintenance tables automatically get recreated.
