Issue/Introduction

Every day we receive "Application Contact Lost" alarms.

The device model shows contact established and polling the app models clears the alarms but they come back day after day.

Environment

Release:
Component: SPCAEM

Cause

Some attributes on the device model and application models differ: agent_port, community_name, polling_interval, trycount, timeout.

Resolution

Verify the attributes on the device model and application models are the same for  agent_port, community_name, polling_interval, trycount, timeout.
