Add custom alarm messages in the ad_server probe

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

Only 1 message available per profile in the message pool. Whereas we need to configure 2 sometimes per profile.

There is no "message pool" GUI in the probe. Are we able to add extra messages manually and if so, how do we know what string of characters to put?

Environment

• DX UIM 23.4.*
• ad_server 

Resolution

Manually add a new message in the probe cfg as below

   <message-test>
      name = OM_test
      text = My custom message
      subsystem = 2.1.2
      i18n_token = as#application.ad_server.provider_OM_test
   </message-test>

 

 

• Whatever the text you enter for keys 'name' and 'text', it will display in probe GUI

 

• The message ID is just a random unique number, it can be any meaningful name like "<message-test>" in my example. It must start with message- followed by any text like test.
