Monitoring Rules Stop Working (status Unknown)

If you have restarted Application Server, the communication between Application Server and Monitoring Console has been disrupted and needs to be reactivated. Monitoring rules that were previously working, no longer work and are in a status of Unknown. If you have restarted the common agent container on the Application Server host, the problem will still exist because the common agent container must also be restarted on the Monitoring Console host.

ProcedureTo Reestablish Application Server Communication to Monitoring Console

  1. As root, restart the common agent container on the host where Application Server resides. For example:


    /usr/sbin/cacaoadm start
  2. Then go to the host where Monitoring Console resides and restart the common agent container. For example:

    If common agent container is already running, stop it, then start it with these commands.

    On Solaris OS:


    /usr/sbin/cacaoadm stop
    /usr/sbin/cacaoadm start

    On Linux and HP-UX:


    /opt/sun/cacao/bin/cacaoadm stop
    /opt/suncacao/bin/cacaoadm start
