Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• With this enhancement, duper is automatically applied to
  situations with reflex actions and display item. No
  additional configuration is required.
  
  General Duper Note:
  Situations are considered for the duper process only during
  the management server startup.   Therefore, situations need
  to be defined with the "Run at startup" option selected to
  be considered for duper the next time the management server
  is started.
  
  Duper Situation with Take Action Note:
  Any situation with take action is distributed to the agent
  via two requests, one for situation sampling and one for the
  take action.  The same applies for situations with take
  actions that are duper situations.
  
  This is an example of a message for sampling part of duper
  situation:
  KRAIRA000, Starting Enterprise situation _Z_QMQUEUES0 <200
  279635,114296567> for KMQ.QMQUEUES., Producer(IRA
  Constructor)
  
  
  This is an example of the take action parts when the
  situation is defined to Execute the Action at the Managed
  System (Agent).  In this scenario, the takes actions are
  sent as separate reqeusts:
  KRAIRA000, Starting Enterprise situation MQ_SIT_A_101 <200
  279698,112199411> for KMQ.QMQUEUES., Producer(IRA
  Constructor)
  KRAIRA000, Starting Enterprise situation MQ_SIT_A_100 <200
  279709,114296560> for KMQ.QMQUEUES., Producer(IRA
  Constructor)
  
  So it is correct when a situation that contains a take
  action is duperized to see a separate message for each take
  action, when the evaluation is to be done at the agent.
  
  
  New environment variable KMS_EVAL_REFLEX_AT_TEMS
  If you have a large number of situations with reflex actions
  set in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal to Execute the Action at
  the Managed System (Agent), then you can set the monitoring
  server environment variable KMS_EVAL_REFLEX_AT_TEMS=Y in the
  KBBENV file to increase your level of duper optimization.
  
  Set the KMS_EVAL_REFLEX_AT_TEMS environment variable at each
  monitoring server in your environment to cause the
  evaluations of the actions to be handled by duper on the
  monitoring server, while the actions are still directed to
  the managed systems. If you want to implement this variable,
  your managed systems must be connected to a monitoring
  server in order for the actions to execute.
  
  Attention: Use the KMS_EVAL_REFLEX_AT_TEMS environment
  variable with caution since the agent must be connected to
  the management server for the action to be executed.
  Note: The KMS_EVAL_REFLEX_AT_TEMS variable has no affect on
  your situation if you have set Execute the Action at the
  Managing System (TEMS).
