Clarification on Maintenance mode

Hello,
Just want to know if we can turn the maintenance mode ON for specific agents in agent admin page. We have all the agents connected to our solman system & we have an outage in the Non-Prod landscape. Do we have an option to put the non-prod agents alone in maintenance mode?
Please clarify.

Hi
Maintenance Mode is De-activated for Agent on CEN (on SolMan) only and this step ensures that the connected SMDAgent from Managed Systems are disconnected from SMDAgent of Solution Manager.
Otherwise, you need to stop on the respective Managed system.

1. Provide list of servers line-by-line in C:\ServerList.txt, make sure you provide limited no. of servers, do not exceed 20 - 25 per batch
2. Save the script with suitable name (test.ps1)
3. Open PowerShell cmd prompt
4. Script accepts 3 params - TimeInMinutes, Reason and Comment
**** Please note, this script will work for SCOM 2012 R2
param([int32]$TimeMin, [string]$Reason, [string]$Comment)
try
$api = new-object -comObject 'MOM.ScriptAPI'
Import-Module operationsmanager
New-SCOMManagementGroupConnection
$Servers = Get-Content "C:\ServerList.txt"
$Time = (Get-Date).Addminutes($TimeMin)
Foreach ($Server in $Servers)

5508-HA standby in Maintenance mode

My standby controller is in maintenance mode. Other post say to simply reboot the standby but I'm worried about doing this during business hours. Say I did reboot it during business hours, would it affect the active controller? All redundancy links are connected.
(Cisco Controller) >show redundancy sum
Redundancy Mode = SSO ENABLED
Local State = MAINTENANCE
Peer State = UNKNOWN - Communication Down
Unit = Secondary - HA SKU
Unit ID = 00:06:F6:DC:17:00
Redundancy State = Non Redundant
Mobility MAC = 68:EF:BD:8E:61:E0
Maintenance Mode = Enabled
Maintenance cause= Negotiation Timeout

No it won't affect the active controller:
While booting, the WLCs will negotiate the HA role as per the configuration done. Once the role is determined, the configuration is synced from the Active WLC to the Standby WLC via the Redundant Port. Initially WLC is configured, as Secondary will report XML mismatch and will download the configuration from Active and reboot again. During the next reboot after role determination, it will validate the configuration again, report no XML mismatch, and process further in order to establish itself as the Standby WLC

Warning: The system has not been taken off maintenance mode completely

After I enabled Maintenance mode using adadmin, I ran Compile Flexfields. Then I disabled Maintenance mode. But, on the 11i login page, I keep getting a warning message:
Warning
The system has not been taken off maintenance mode completely. Please contact your System Administrator.
I am sure I disabled the Maintenance mode in adadmin. Why I still get the warning? How to fix it? Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot. That is the fix.
One more question. After I ran "Compile Flexfields", I got
Number of successful descriptive flex compilations : 7520
Number of failed descriptive flex compilations : 1
How can I find the failed description flex? The log does not give info on this. And, how to fix it?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Cairo-dock starts in "maintenance mode"

Hi,
I've recently upgraded the cairo-dock, but since then it starts along with the <maintenance mode window>... When I try to close it, it reappears until the wifi connection settles down. I suspect that weather-dock is making troubles when it does not have connection to the internet.
I've looked through the cairo-dock options, and it has an option to force maintenance mode, but it does not have one to force disabling it unfortunately.
Anyone has any idea how to get rid of this?

probably an issue with your configuration. had this once, deleted my .config/cairo-doc ( at least i think thats where it was) folder and it worked again - with default settings.

OM2012 – Putting a Monitor in maintenance mode

Hi there,
I need to write a powershell script to put a Monitor in Maintenance mode. This is easily doable manually on the console whenever an alert comes up by putting the alert in Maintenance Mode.
So far I managed to make my script to put the class of the Monitor into maintenance, as per bellow
i.e. if the monitor is “Total CPU Utilization Percentage”, it would put Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter in maintenance mode for the computer $ComputerName.
$ComputerName = Read-Host “Enter computer name”
$MonitorName = “Total CPU Utilization Percentage”
$Monitors=Get-SCOMMonitor -ComputerName $strComputerName | where {$_.DisplayName -eq $MonitorName}
$Time = ((Get-Date).AddMinutes(6))
foreach ($Monitor in $Monitors) {
$Instance = Get-SCOMclass -name $Monitor.target.identifier.path | Get-SCOMClassInstance #| where {$_.Path -eq $ComputerName}
Start-SCOMMaintenanceMode -Instance $Instance -EndTime $Time -Comment: “Server maintenance”
I can’t figure our how to simply put “Total CPU Utilization Percentage” (or any other Monitor) in maintenance mode
Thanks for your help !

Yes, use the "Start Maintenance Mode" Activtiy of the Integration Pack for OpsMgr.

SCCM 2012 Software Update Management for Windows Servers and how to automatic set SCOM maintenance mode?

Hi,
We planning to go one level higher to automat and have more dynamic Software Update Management for Windows Servers. We have SCCM 2012 R2, SCOM 2012 R2 and SCO 2012 R2.
Our plan is to pur server in an AD-Group to get Update Schedule, from the servers will be importet to an Collection for Automatic Update and reboot. If I understand Everything right SCOM can't read AD-Group and put then in an Schedule maintenance mode. SCOM
can read reg value as exempel.
IS there any smar way to make the SCOM Maintenance Mode Schedule dynamic?
I found this

You could use Orchestrator to put the servers from a specific collection, or AD group, in maintenance mode in SCOM. For an example see:

Unable to enter maintenance mode - dtrt1000

Over the last few weeks my box is almost useless. With frequency it only part records, freezes requiring rebooting, momintary screen blanks, and is generally a pain in the rear. I've tried to get into maintenance mode to try and reset it, but following the guide from Youview it doesn't work, and the box just starts as normal.
My understanding is that you (1) Switch the box off from the back (2) Switch it back on after 30secs (3) Press the power button and immediately hold of the -vol button until the splash screen appears...Then you can access the menu.
I've tried holding the holiding the -vol button before the power button, holding it immediately after power button, holding it until the nearly ready screen, in low and high eco modes etc but get the same result, it just goes straight into normal programes???

1 Start with the YouView box powered off from the switch on the REAR panel power button
2. Power back on the YouView box using the REAR panel power button
3. When the FRONT power button is illuminated with an orange circle, press the FRONT panel power button firmly once and it will turn blue
4. Immediately press and hold the "VOL-" button which can be found on the right of the FRONT panel the first silver button.
5. A message saying "Enter Maintenance Mode Y/N (Y: POWER)" appears on the TV screen
So if I understand correctly your experience is that steps 1, 2 & 3 occur but when doing step 4 the message step 5 (does not occur ) and your box boots as normal.
My own (historic ) experience is that the timing of stages 3 and 4 is quite tight - ie the power button turning blue followed immediately by the VOL- button being pressed and held.
Your options if the maintenence mode will not work are to contact BT support and seek their advice or if you are not concerned about the recordings remaining on the box you can do a factory reset from from main Youview menu

All services stuck in maintenance mode

I've got a problem on Solaris 10. All of the enabled inet services are in maintenance mode. rlogin, ftp, telnet, stlisten, xfs, etc, etc - are all in maintenance mode. The inetadm command shows no online services, only disabled and maintenance. I've tried clearing them with svcadm but they won't clear. It won't show any explanation for why.
What could be wrong to cause this?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Randy

Thanks very much for the very helpful suggestions. svcs -xv does not show anything helpful - for the Reason, simply "Restarter gave no explanation". The svc:/network/inetd:default is indeed enabled and healthy.
/var/adm/messages, however, has information that might point to the problem. Regrettably, I don't understand the message and am hoping someone here can enlighten me. For each of the services that is in maintenance mode, these messages appear:
Nov 3 17:59:44 trsun006 inetd[322]: [ID 702911 daemon.error] Property exec for method inetd_start of instance svc:/network/login:rlogin is invalid
Nov 3 17:59:44 trsun006 inetd[322]: [ID 702911 daemon.error] Invalid configuration for instance svc:/network/login:rlogin, placing in maintenance
I don't understand what it means by "Property exec for method inetd_start ... is invalid".
I issued these commands-
[trsun006 27] sbin > inetadm -l rlogin | grep exec
exec="/usr/sbin/in.rlogind"
[trsun006 28] sbin > ls -l /usr/sbin/in.rlogind
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 36372 Jan 22 2005 /usr/sbin/in.rlogind*
How can I debug this problem?

Need to place the SCOM agents in Maintenance Mode automatically during Patching activity

Hi,
I have a requirement to place the SCOM agent servers in MM automatically during shceduled patching every month. I have gone through few blogs but could not find an apt solution for SCOM 2012 R2 environment.
I think the process should be..
1. Create a management pack to monitor all servers for event 1074 (or/and 22), which gets triggere during the patching
2. Write some powershell to put a machine into maintenance mode.
3. Trigger the powershell script to run when needed.
Any suggestions please?
Thanks

Where doing this in our environment. We have a SCOM monitor looking for Reboot events (ID 1074) where the event contains Shutdown Type: Reboot. the monitor creates an Informational alert which Orchestrator picks up and then sets the machine in MM for 30
minutes. So its any time the machine is intentionally rebooted. You can have it look for CcmExec in the Event description (assuming you're using SCCM) if you only want it to work when being patched.

'Update' maintenance mode in transaction PRAA

Hi,
We are trying to create an employee vendor using the transaction PRAA by selecting the 'Update' maintenance mode.
The issue is that the clerk's email address is being copied from the reference vendor if the personnel does not have an email address maintained in the HR records.
Please could you let me know if this is the standard functionality.
Thank you.

Hello
Not sure that is a standard functionnality. You should check user-exit and BAdIs implemented in your system for PRAA... (there is 2 exit).
If not you should open an incident to SAP because it doesnt looks like very clean to me to copy the email from template.

SQL Query for maintenance mode in SCOM

Hi all
I was wondering if I can find a query about this request:
- Found all the Servers that were restart without the maintenance mode were actived ?
It's to make a Report To include in Reporting Services.
sorry for my English :)
Thank you very much and have a good day

Your question seems related to SCOM. SCOM may use SQL Server, but to answer the question, I guess one needs to know SCOM, so maybe you should try a forum for that product? I found

Solaris 10 disk mirror partition goes in maintenance mode at reboot

Hello
I have got solaris 10 installed on a Sun machine with 2 disks mirrorred to each other. There also security toolkit 4.2 installed. Now every time the system reboots and I do a metastat the mirror partitions goes in maintenance mode and I have to individually metasync the mirrors after every reboot.
I guess this due to the security toolkit playing up. Would really appreciate any help to sort this out. The mirrors should automatically resync after system reboot.
Thanks in advance.
Pioneer

Hi yes I did run the metaroot. If I manually metasync its all OK. My problem is the partition does not auto sync after the system boots.
I guess this is someting to do with the security toolkit 4.2 playing up not disabling some services at boot. Have any one faced this issue ?
Many Thanks
Pioneer
