E140031 Unknown server specified: <INSTANCE>

 

Environment

All the CA Workload Control Center version supported platforms

Cause

The Application Server Connection name mismatch in the source and destination WCC servers causes the problem

Resolution

• The WCC views export file can be text edited.
• In the views export file, the WCC (except WCC 11.1) monitoring view's filter name would reference the name of the Application Server connection where it is pointing to. 

// View ALL-JOBS

insert_view: ALL-JOBS

        render_flow: true

insert_filter: DEV

        view: ALL-JOBS

        filter: job_name LIKE *

        active: true

• Correct the field "insert_filter" in the source export file to read the name of Application Server Connection of the destination WCC.

// View ALL-JOBS

insert_view: ALL-JOBS

        render_flow: true

insert_filter: PRD

        view: ALL-JOBS

        filter: job_name LIKE *

        active: true

• Save the file and Run the import on the destination server.

# ./wcc_monitor.sh -u xxxxxxxxxx -p xxxxxxxxxx -i wcc_migrate.out -v

Import finished

Note! In case the error occurs while importing the views exported from WCC 11.1.
The above procedure is to be followed after scrubbing the original file with the 'wcc_migrate.sh' script.
