too much alarm

[victor]

Looks like you have rule in event processing policy for events SYS_NODE_NORMAL, SYS_NODE_WARNING, SYS_NODE_MINOR, SYS_NODE_MAJOR, SYS_NODE_CRITICAL. Usually you should not generate alarms from those events.

i don't have any rules in event processing policy for that events. and something that i've seen is that, when it start happens, the cpu usage of the server stay at the high level (more than 90 %) during the execution of netxms (netxms more than 40%, nxmc more than 35%) so the server start to work very slow.

Can you please provide a screenshot of your event processing policy? Also, what NetXMS version you are using?

It's hard to tell anything from rule comments only I need to see rules expanded. To avoid making lot of screenshots you can export all rules and attach xml file. Go to Tools -> Export configuration, and add all rules to the export. Then press "Save" icon to save it into XML file.

I only see event in exported file, not event processing policy rules. Did you add rules for export?

events&rules

Hi!

It seems that rule named "Show alarm when node is down" has any event as a source (probably SYS_NODE_DOWN that was there originally was accidentally deleted) - that way it generates alarm on every event (including node status change events), thus triggering infinite loop of alarm creation. Add SYS_NODE_DOWN back and everything should be fine.
