Snmp not enabled after kill -HUP of event demon

Issue/Introduction

We updated the Autosys configuration file with these attributes

SnmpManagerHosts=<host name of the snmp trap manager>

SnmpCommunity=public

Then we executed a 'kill -HUP <event demon PID>, which reloads the configuration file but keeps the scheduler running.

The end result is  - we still do not get SNMP traps generated for job failures.

Cause

The SnmpManagerHosts attribute cannot be activated by a kill -HUP signal

The following attributes can be activated with kill -HUP <event_demon_pid>

CrossPlatformScheduling 

GlobalPendMachDelay 

GlobalPendMachStatus 

GlobalPendMachInterval

Note: The scheduler and application server also refresh the internal components responsible for managing real resources. 

Environment

CA WAAE 11.3 SP1, CA WAAE 11.3.5, CA WAAE 11.3.6 on Linux/Unix

Resolution

You have to restart the scheduler with 'unisrvcntr restart waae_sched.$AUTOSERV'
