Error description

  • ********************** START OF APAR OPEN TEMPLATE
    *********************
    * Please open an apar with the following severity and

    APAR Type:            Field
    Approver Initials:    RB
    Severity:             3

    Server
    
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    Deleting a situation in an FTO environment will result in
    orphaned group member records in the TGROUPI table at the
    MIRROR. It is possible under the right circumstances for these
    records to make their way back to the acting HUB.
    
    RECREATE INSTRUCTIONS:
    In an FTO environment with the HUB and MIRROR running:
    - Create a situation
    - add the situation to a situation group.
    - Verify the resulting group member record exists in the
    TGROUPI table at the acting HUB and at the MIRROR.
    - Delete the situation at the acting HUB
    - Check again for the group member record at the acting HUB and
    the MIRROR. It will be gone from the acting HUB but still found
    at the MIRROR.
    
    LOCAL FIX:
    The group member record at the MIRROR will need to be manually
    deleted.

    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF.                               *
    ****************************************************************
    Contents of the group member table can get out of sync
    between the hub monitoring server and the MIRROR monitoring
    server. The problem occurs when deleting a situation that is
    assigned to one or more groups. This leaves orphaned group
    members at the MIRROR monitoring server.
    The orphaned group member records can make their way back to
    the HUB monitoring server during fail over operations. The
    orphaned group members are typically harmless, though can
    become relevant if the deleted situation is recreated.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The product has been modified to remove the group members at
    the MIRROR monitoring server when a situation is deleted.
