19801 - Communication Agent Connection Locally Blocked

Alarm Group:

CAF

Description:

This alarm indicates that one or more Communication Agent connections have been administratively blocked at the server asserting the alarm, 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 near-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.
