Issue/Introduction

When closing a ticket in Service Desk Manager (SDM) the subsequent alarm in Spectrum OneClick (OC) does not clear.

Reviewing the oc-notification.log in the $NX_ROOT/bin directory on the SDM machine may contains errors:

"Unable to translate Service Desk notification OneClick command"

It may also contain connection errors:
