Other than using the "cvtnrlog -d" utility is there another way to empty the CSPM server alarm database. Using this method can take several hours to complete the erasure which is inefficient, and can lead to the loss of important alarm data. Is there...
Is it possible to get alarm information sent from from the CSPM server to something like syslog (using port 514) on a UNIX box. If so can you give me details. I have entered information into the "Additional Destination" tab and updated a sensor. I ca...
I have been updating our 12 sensors manually for a while now with no problems. We are currently on version 3.1(2)S28. I am trying to get the auto-update feature working but am not having much luck. I strated out by using a Sun box as an FTP server bu...

I have used the cvtnrlog command to save the alarm database to a file before I cleared the database on the CSPM server. I can get the file into a spreadsheat but the fields do not match what I see in the Event Viewer. I can figure most of them out bu...
Thanks for the advice. I will consider using the "restore to default" method. I manage two CSPM servers and have had to use that method several times on both severs because of database issues. As I am sure you know, this is not the most stable or use...
Glenn, thank you for your feed back but I am interested in a short cut method for clearing out the CSPM alarm database, not the network topology database. I save and delete the CSPM alram database twice a week. On average the database is about 35MB w...
I have had a similar problem myself. When I tried to open the Event Viewer I got an error that the database could not be accessed but the machine did not lock. I erased the database using the cvtnrlog utility with the -d option. Then I reset the Poli...
