How are active alerts cleared/closed?

In the process of configuring SCOM 2012 R2, I have had several critical and warning alerts posted.  I believe I have corrected the conditions resulting in (some of) the alerts, but the alerts are still listed as active.
I have rebooted the SCOM Server (also containing the associated SQL DB) and I have tried flushing the cache.  Nothing I have tried seems to cause these alerts to transition to inactive/closed because the condition has been corrected.
So two questions: First, how am I to know if I really corrected the condition if the alert never seems to close?  Second, how can I get SCOM to reevaluate the ENTIRE state of which it is aware/monitoring to determine of old alerts have been corrected
or new conditions are broken?  (So I KNOW there is no stale information around.)
Other SC components seem to have this capability (DPM in particular) but I have not been about to find it with SCOM.

If its an alert based off a rule it will not close, you will have to close it.
If its an alert based off a monitor, in most cases it should close itself when it detects a healthy condition. Not all monitors will expose their criteria of a healthy condition outright, but if you click on "view or edit the settings of this monitor"
under alert actions in the console when the alert is highlighted you can get to the monitor properties. in there if you check the configuration,knowledge, or various other tabs you can often times figure out what its looking for.
Some Monitors wont close themselves. To find out if this is the case go back to the "view or edit the settings of this monitor" and look at the health tab. Some monitors will have something like "manual reset" in the monitor condition
or operational state (i cant rememeber which off hand). In this case you can reset the the health of the monitor in the health explorer view.
in the case of alerts that dont close themselves you wont really have a cut and dry answer as to whether or not the condition its alerting on is no longer occuring. Product knowledge from the monitor/rule or internet research will sometimes get you going
in the right direction. Do you have a couple examples of the alerts you are recieving? it might help in narrowing down answers to your questions.
One other thing to mention is if its a monitor(s), somtimes things will get in a funky state where you have an alert that wont go away, yet the health for the monitor shows all green in health explorer. In these cases which shouldnt be too often i  believe
it is ok to just close the alert.

    You can't delete an account, you can only stop using it.  If you're getting that error message you won't be able to create a new account on your device.  Your only options are to re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account on a different iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

  • HT1202 I have just bought a new I pad 3 and want to give my I pad 2 to a friend. What will I have to do to clear my info on the old I pad and set it up on my new one? How are apple I D effected and passwords cleared?

    I have just bought a new I pad 3 and want to give my I pad 2 to a friend. What will I have to do to clear my info on the old I pad and set it up on my new one? How are apple I D effected and passwords cleared?
    Any advice welcome.

    To clear to old before passing it on, open the Settings app and tap on General (left hand menu). Scroll down and tap on settings, then tap on Erase All Content and Settings.
    If you have been synching the iPad to iTunes on a computer, you should also have backed it up. If you havn't backed it, you will want to do so before clearing the settings and use the back up to set up your new iPad.

  • How to find Transactions/Programs are Active or Locked

    Hello Friends,
    How to find, what are all the Transactions/Programs are Active/Locked in the Production(PRD) Environment.
    Is there any table or transactions available to find it out?
    Please assist.
    Regards,
    Shrinivas

    - To be confirmed : look at field CINFO in table TSTC, if it contains hexadecimal values of '80', '01', '02' or '20' it is locked (not sure, check)
    - Use a call 'DY_CHECK_TRANSACTION'  id 'TX' <tcode> if sy-subrc = 3 the transaction is locked.
    - Use a call FM AUTHORITY_CHECK_TCODE, if NOT_OK is raised and the message i348(s#) is sent the transaction is locked
    - First check via   AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_TCODE' ID 'TCD' FIELD <tcode> and if the object is allowed but NOT_OK is raised by the FM AUTHORITY_CHECK_TCODE, the transaction is locked.

  • How can I know how many Itabs are active

    Hi Experts,
    How can I know all the ITABS that are active during DEBUGGING?
    I AM USING 4.6C.

    Hi,
    When you go in the debugging mode for eg when you use call function in a prog the internal tables defined in that prog become inactiv in the function code unless you pass it as an interface in the call function
    Also ,the internal tables are acticve depending on the place of declaration.
    You can find which internal tables are active in which part of the code by going to tables tab in debugger , if the internal table is not active there you will get an error message when you type the table name in the field and press snter.
    the msg will read that table is not defined.
    Thank you1

  • How to get the list of employees whose Sal on hold and who are active

    HI Experts,
    We are trying to extract a report,where the list of employees whose  salary was hold  and who are active in a particular month.
    Please advice.
    Regards,
    V Sai.

    Hi,
    I can think of two different solutions. You can choose the one as per the requirement.
    1. Creating  a report of locked employees as on date.
      Active employee that are locked in Infotype 3.
    As infotype 3 doesnt have different Begin data and end dates, we cannot have historic data/report.
    2. Creating a report for payroll not run.
    Getting a list of active  employees
    Check the RT of the employees for previous payroll runs.
    You can use the selection criterila for dates/months.
    Hope this helps.

  • Is there a way of finding out how many active hours you've worked on a Premiere project?

    If not, it'd be a very cool addition for Adobe to implement... so you know exactly how many hours a project is taking (and how much to charge clients etc.) Obviously we're all prone to leaving Premiere on and wandering away, so I guess it would need to be able to differentiate between active and non-active time...

    Is there a way of finding out how many active hours you've worked on a Premiere project?
    There are two things a client get's billed for, my time, and my computer's time.  If either one of us are working on a project, the client get's billed.  Even if Adobe spent (wasted?) time on adding such a feature, they'd never be able to include any time I've spent working on the project with PP closed, so this feature would have very, very, VERY limited usefulness.
    The method suggested by the images is still the best way.

  • Set a User Status for Quality Notifications only if they are "Activated".

    Hello experts:
    I need to be able to set a User Status for Quality Notifications only if they are "Activated".
    When defects are recorded for an inspection lot, a "Defect Notification" is created which can be activated to become a "Quality Notification".  Initially, the only difference between the inactive "Defect Notification" and the active  "Quality Notification" is that  the system status DEFR is active for the "Defect Notification", but is cleared when the notification is activated.
    So, I'm looking for the business process associated with the Activation to use as a trigger for my own user status.
    I checked the business rules for status DEFR and found that the following processes clear this status
      PMM1 -  Postpone Notification
      PMM2 -  Put Notification In Process
      PMM3 -  Assign Order
      PMM6 -  Put Notification In Process Again
    Any Ideas ?

    Perhaps some additional information would help you understand what I need to do.
    For notification type F3, we are recording all defects found in production.
    Most of these are expected defects that result in a minor reduction in yield.
    For this type of defect, we do not activate the notification, and the inspection lot is closed automatically at the end of production.
    However, sometimes defects are observed of an unexpected type or a higher than expected quantity.
    When this happens we manually activate the notification and assign tasks to find and correct the cause.
    It is only for these activated notifications that I want to automatically set a user status, which among other things, will prevent the notification from being closed until some other actions are complete and a different user status is selected.
    The function of the user status currently works exactly as I want, but if it is set as the initial status for all F3 notifications, it is also preventing the un-activated defect notifications from automatically closing.  I therefore want to use the Activation event as the trigger to set my user status.

  • SQL Query to show active alerts
