19802 - Communication Agent Connection Remotely
Blocked
Alarm Group:
CAF
Description:
This alarm indicates that one or more Communication
Agent connections have been administratively blocked at a remote
server
connected to the
server,
and this is generally done as part of a maintenance procedure. A connection
that is blocked cannot be used by applications to communicate with other
servers,
and so this alarm may indicate that applications are unable to communicate with
their expected set of peers.
Note:
It is normal to have this alarm if the
connection is in the Blocked administrative state on the far-side of the
connection.
Severity:
Minor
Instance:
N/A
Note:
This alarm is cleared when:
Locally UNBLOCKed: An Admin Action to locally
UNBLOCK the service connection and no other connection is locally blocked.
Deleted: The
MP Server/Connection is deleted.
Failed: The Connection is terminated, due to
Admin Disable action or Heartbeat failure or remote end initiated disconnection
or any other reason.
