 How to enable remote/secondary NAS probes to access the maintenance_mode probe on the primary hub?

Environment

UIM Server:  8.2 and later
nas probe:  8.67 and later

Resolution

 

For the secondary NAS probes to access the maintenance mode probe you need to add a new key to the setup section of NAS config on each secondary NAS.

 

Key name:

maintenance_mode_address

Set the Value to the full nimbus address (example):

/UIM-domain/primary-hub/primary-hub-robot/maintenance_mode

Additional Information

This will work in NAS 4.67 and later only.

NAS 4.67 is included with UIM 8.2 - in order to receive the NAS upgrade you must upgrade your UIM server to 8.2 or later.
