sync_alerts

Synchronizes all alerts for the specified target between the Agent and the repository. You typically use this command when you think that the Agent has not uploaded the latest alert to the repository, and the repository is therefore out of sync with the Agent state.

To determine if alerts are out of sync between the Agent and the repository for the specified target, run the get_unsync_alerts command.

Format

emcli sync_alerts 
        -target_type=type 
        -target_name=name 
        -agent_name=agent 

Options

• target_type

  Internal target-type identifier (host, oracle_database, emrep, and so forth).

• target_name

  Name of the target.

• agent_name

  Name of the Agent.

Examples

Example 1

This example synchronizes alert states for target_type "host" and target_name "hostname.oracle.com".

emcli sync_alerts -target_type=host -target_name=hostname.oracle.com

Example 2

This example synchronizes alert states for all targets that the Agent "hostname.xyz.com:port" monitors.

emcli sync_alerts -agent_name=hostname.xyz.com:port
