You can monitor alerts by using the alert service of the Enterprise Manager command-line client.
Before you begin, ensure that the Enterprise Manager server is running.
Set the -s argument to AlertService51x. Set the -m argument to the desired method.
The commands are shown on multiple lines for readability. You must enter the commands on a single line.
You can display a list of the available methods for the alert service by using the -n argument. For example:
em-cmdline-client -l entmgrhost -p 15000 -u Administrator -w STC -s AlertService51x -n Note: the order of the parameters is important. Available methods and parameters: -m deleteAlerts -Pfilter=<filter> -m getAllAlerts -m observeAlerts -Pfilter=<filter> -m resolveAlerts -Pfilter=<filter> -m resolveAllAlerts -m deleteAllAlerts -m observeAllAlerts -m getAlertQueryFields -m getAlerts -Pfilter=<filter> -m resetAlerts -Pfilter=<filter> -m resetAllAlerts |
The getAlertQueryFields method enables you to list the filters that you can use for the other methods. For example:
em-cmdline-client -l entmgrhost -p 15000 -u Administrator -w STC -s AlertService51x -m getAlertQueryFields from to id environmentName physicalHostName logicalHostName serverName componentProjectPathName deploymentName componentName severity type observationalState operationalState messageCode details |
The getAlerts method enables you to display all of the alerts for the specified components. You can display a subset of the alerts by including one or more filters. The following example specifies two filters:
em-cmdline-client -l entmgrhost -p 15000 -u Administrator -w STC -s AlertService51x -m getAlerts -Pfilter=componentProjectPathName=Project1;environmentName=Environment1 ID:10 Date:Wed Jun 04 15:56:58 PDT 2008 EnvironmentName:Environment1 LogicalHostName:LogicalHost1 ServerName:server ComponentProjectPathName:Project1 DeploymentName:Deployment1 ComponentName:Service1 PhysicalHostName:myserver:4848 Severity:INFO Type:COLLABORATION ObservationalState:Unobserved OperationalState:Running MessageCode:COL-00001 Details: Collaboration jcdB is RUNNING ID:9 Date:Wed Jun 04 15:56:57 PDT 2008 EnvironmentName:Environment1 LogicalHostName:LogicalHost1 ServerName:server ComponentProjectPathName:Project1 DeploymentName:Deployment1 ComponentName:Service1 PhysicalHostName:myserver:4848 Severity:INFO Type:COLLABORATION ObservationalState:Unobserved OperationalState:Running MessageCode:COL-00001 Details: Collaboration jcdA is RUNNING |
The getAllAlerts method enables you to display all of the alerts.
The initial status of an alert is Unobserved. You can change the status to Observed or Resolved. Observed means that you looked at and acknowledged the alert. Resolved means that you fixed the problem that caused the alert.
The observeAlerts method enables you to change the status of an alert to Observed.
em-cmdline-client -l entmgrhost -p 15000 -u Administrator -w STC -s AlertService51x -m observeAlerts -Pfilter=componentProjectPathName=Project1;environmentName=Environment1 |
The observeAllAlerts method enables you to change the status of all alerts to Observed.
The resolveAlerts method enables you to change the status of an alert to Resolved.
em-cmdline-client -l entmgrhost -p 15000 -u Administrator -w STC -s AlertService51x -m resolveAlerts -Pfilter=componentProjectPathName=Project1;environmentName=Environment1 |
The resolveAllAlerts method enables you to change the status of all alerts to Resolved.
The resetAlerts method enables you to change the status of an alert to the initial value (Unobserved).
em-cmdline-client -l entmgrhost -p 15000 -u Administrator -w STC -s AlertService51x -m resetAlerts -Pfilter=componentProjectPathName=Project1;environmentName=Environment1 |
The resetAllAlerts method enables you to change the status of all alerts to the initial value (Unobserved).
The deleteAlerts method enables you to delete alerts.
em-cmdline-client -l entmgrhost -p 15000 -u Administrator -w STC -s AlertService51x -m deleteAlerts -Pfilter=componentProjectPathName=Project1;environmentName=Environment1 |
The deleteAllAlerts method enables you to delete all alerts.
