Adding RDB manager status to system error

[nmnogueira]

I am using a redundant server pair and RDB, and currently if the RDB manager stops, there is no switchover in the servers.
I want to add a weight to the RDB manager, so that its status will count to the system error state. I couldn't find the manager in the list of managers that can be added to the weight.
Is it possible to add this directly or do I have to add a Datapoint to monitor?

For the RDB manager you can select the 'Archiv' manager.
Besides the manager you should add the dpe '_RDBArchive.dbConnection.connected', so also the database connection is considered for a switchover.

That did the trick. Thanks!

for the RDB manager you have to configure an archive manager with number 98.

Hi,

I've added a weight to the RDB manager as below which is working (archiv manager 98). However the alert handling in _ManagerConnections doesn't seem to work. The dp has been created automatically but the link is never set true (dp _Conn_data_0_1_to_data_100_1).

[Gertjan van Schijndel]

The datapoint for the RDB with manager number 99 should be '_Conn_data_0_1_to_data_99_1'.
Perhaps also configuring archive 97 helps.

Thanks for the reply. I set up several different dps and '_Conn_data_0_1_to_data_99_1.Link 0' is set to false when the project starts. The only way I have seen it set to true is by restarting the manager.
