Issue/Introduction

Failed hub in DX UIM 23.4.0 once restored leaves behind downed probes which needed to be restarted/recovered.

Environment

• 23.4.0

Cause

• Customer's customer deleted hub

Resolution

Failed hub was restored but probes remained down and red and could not be started.

We had to take one or more of the following actions:

Select probe->Security->Validate-> Yes to All

Redeployed some probes.

Deployed correct-required java_jre packages for some probes.

Removed half-empty, totally misconfigured (apparently unused) probes with tampered or extremely truncated or renamed .cfg files or even missing expected-directory files.
