Requesting System Maintenance Mode

I just installed Solaris 10 on a SunFire v100 and patched the os. I added a second drive and mirrored it. Now I get this message 2 out of 3 times when I reboot the server.....

Hi,
Can you please check the below note
Solaris11 cannot boot and goes into maintenance ( svc:/system/early-manifest-import:default exited with status 1 ) (Doc ID 1526559.1)
It has the solution workaround. Kindly let us know in case issue is not fixed

Solaris10 stuck in maintenance mode

Hi
I was trying to mount a disk in by adding a line to the /etc/vfstab file but the disk did not exist.
When I rebooted, it went directly into maintenance mode and now when I try to roll back the change I can see an error saying the the file system is read only.
This is the output in teh console when I reboot:
The / file system (/dev/vx/rdsk/bootdg/rootvol) is being checked.
WARNING - Unable to repair the / filesystem. Run fsck
manually (fsck -F ufs /dev/vx/rdsk/bootdg/rootvol).

It appears that Solaris could not check your root filesystem.
Try running fsck on it yourself, with a command line like
"fsck -F ufs /dev/vx/rdsk/bootdg/rootvol".

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.

Maintenance mode is cancelled for no reason by the system

Hi, very unusual and sporadic problem.
Let's say we put a URL monitor into maintenance mode for 4 hours.
After 2 hours we reboot the URL hosting server.
The maintenance mode has been cancelled and the URL will alert again while we continue to work on it.
Should this happen ? The version is SCOM 2012 SP1 UR6.
Thanks in anticipation.

If there is lot of data, Then add this string and userid like '%User name who silenced the URL%'
so this will totally filter the report to only all the servers / items silenced by a specific user.
So it will come like this
USE OperationsManagerDW
SELECT ManagedEntity.DisplayName, MaintenanceModeHistory.*
FROM ManagedEntity WITH (NOLOCK)
INNER JOIN
MaintenanceMode ON ManagedEntity.ManagedEntityRowId = MaintenanceMode.ManagedEntityRowId
INNER JOIN
MaintenanceModeHistory ON MaintenanceMode.MaintenanceModeRowId = MaintenanceModeHistory.MaintenanceModeRowId
where DisplayName Like '%%' and userid like '%User name who silenced the URL%'

How to schedule Maintenance Mode in SCOM 2012?

Hi
How do I schedule Maintenance Mode in SCOM 2012? Do we have any tool for 2012 like we had with 2007?
Regards,
Akhilesh
Thanks, Akhilesh

Yep - to add a calendar takes some extra steps:
E.g.
1) Create a database which includes a table to store information such as:
- target for maintenance mode
- scheduled time for maintenance mode
- Comments
- Duration
- Reason
2) The Service Request fires off an Orchestrator runbook that stores this information in the database
3) Another Runbook that runs frequently that checks the database to see if it should kick off maintenance mode.
It isn't any easy solution for maintenance mode. It works better for more simplistic scheduling e.g. we do implement this kind of logic for environment refreshes and backups where we use the SM Portal and Orchestrator to log a date and then have another
runbook that runs at 2am every day to check if it should execute a backup \ refresh.
Cheers

Found all the Servers that were restart without the maintenance mode were actived ?

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

Hi, first if the maintenance mode is activated no events are collected, then, as example, in default rules you can see the following
Collection Rule for Windows Restarted Events that collects eventid=6005
with eventsourcename=eventlog from System
log which is enabled by default.
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/support/ee/transform.aspx?ProdName=Windows+Operating+System&ProdVer=5.2&EvtID=6005&EvtSrc=EventLog&LCID=1033
So you can check Data warehouse DB for presence such event
select ComputerName, DateTime from Event.vEvent ev
inner join Event.vEventDetail evd on ev.eventoriginid = evd.eventoriginid
inner join Event.vEventParameter evp on ev.eventoriginid = evp.eventoriginid
inner join vEventLoggingComputer elc on elc.eventloggingcomputerrowid = ev.loggingcomputerrowid
where eventdisplaynumber = '6005' Order by ComputerName, Datetime
http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2007/10/18/useful-operations-manager-2007-sql-queries.aspx
So if you see this event it means the server was restarted and the maintenance mode was not activated.
Also keep in mind that there can be other event ids when computer is restarted, as example see the rule
Collection Rule for Windows Restart Events (restarted from bugcheck)

Looking for a Powershell Script which can put the scom servers in maintenance mode

Looking for a Powershell Script which can put the scom servers in maintenance mode so that SCOM should not send an alert during planned task.
Rahul

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)
#Get Computer instance
$ComputerClass = Get-SCOMClass -Name Microsoft.Windows.Computer
$ComputerClassInstance = Get-SCOMClassInstance -Class $ComputerClass | Where {$_.DisplayName -eq $Server}
If ($ComputerClassInstance -ne $Null)
$HealthServiceWatcherClass = Get-SCOMClass -name:Microsoft.SystemCenter.HealthServiceWatcher

'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

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

Failed to get Monitor - Start Maintenance Mode

Hi,
Am struggling with a problem with Orchestrator R2 apparently not recognising output from a Monitor alert step in a run book. I have Orchestrator 2012R2 and SCOM 2012R2 configured. Orchestrator is co-located with VMM2012R2.
Operating system for all is Windows server 2012
I have installed and deployed the Orchestrator R2 Integration packs which in deployment manager state version 7.2
I have checked to ensure that both Orchestrator, SCOM and VMM are all R2 (They are)
I am looking to create a runbook that will start services as per the link here: (Thanks to Jakob for this)
http://blog.coretech.dk/jgs/sco-2012-scom-2012-best-practice-monitor-alert-and-restart-a-service/
I can test the connection to the SCOM server - fine
I create the monitor alert step and test - fine
I create the start maintenance mode step and get the following error:
Filed to get Monitor. The exception was "An object of class MonitoringObject with ID 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 was not found.".
I have used the runbook tester and the monitoringobjectfullname is present in the output for the start maintenance mode step.
However irrespective of the variable that I attempt to use in start maintenance mode step I continue to get the same error as above.
The monitor alert step completes with no issues, but everytime on the start maint mode step it fails.
I have validated the SCOM connection account has all the appropriate SCOM permissions. I have also provided it with full domain admin rights, but with no success.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this would be welcomed
Thanks in advance

Hi Stefan,
A little extension of your approach as this is only usable if you want to set a Windows Server into Maintenance Mode - but not e.g. for Distributed Apps
I just required the "Start Maintenance Mode" Activity to set a distributed app and a websphere application server instance (which is not linked with the server itself). And I did not find any documentation how to fill the field - only for Windows
Computer.
So I'll post my result on how to get the value which needs to be entered within the "Monitor" field:
(PowerShell - Use "Activities > System > Run .Net Script > Type: Powershell)
Import-Module OperationsManager
$object= Get-SCOMMonitoringObject -displayname "<desired object displayname";
# or use the ID instead:
# $object = Get-SCOMMonitoringObject -ID "<ID of object>";
$name = $object.displayname;
$fullname = $object.fullname;
$monitor = $name + " : " + $fullname
Then put $monitor within "published data" and you can use it directly in the "Start Maintenance Mode" Activity.
This only works if the runbook is running on a SCOM management server as it requires the SCOM Powershell Module. But at least it somehow shows the syntax.
Best Regards

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.

"Class instance is already in Maintenance Mode" - but it isn't

Hello,
we have a powershell script to set the servers managed by scom agent in maintenance mode (e.g. for windows updates and restart).
A colleague recognized an error during running this script. It says that instances of the server are still in maintenance mode. But if you check through SCOM it is not. And for resetting maintenance mode with 0 it says it is not in maintenance mode.
Is it possible to clear maintenance mode for all things wiht a sql statement?

Hi also in this post :)
Thats a nice query - thank you. But the systems with the error are not listed.
Maybe there is an error in our script:

if ($ComputerInstance.InMaintenanceMode) {....$MMEntry = Get-SCOMMaintenanceMode -Instance $ComputerInstance
