Using Monitors › Recover From Failed Automation

Recover From Failed Automation

Automation fails for a resource in the AUTOMATED operation mode when the region cannot maintain the desired state of the resource. The status monitor displays the resource as having an INERROR logical state.

To recover from failed automation

1. Enter MM beside the resource to set its operation mode to MANUAL. This indicates to other operators that the resource is being attended to.
2. To confirm that automation has actually failed, enter S beside the resource to access the Modes and States panel. The panel displays the automation status, which should be FAILED.
3. Press F12 (Cancel) to return to the status monitor. Enter L beside the resource to access its transient log. The log provides information about the cause of the problem, which helps you determine the actions to take. A likely cause is that the recovery action specified in the resource definition is inappropriate.
4. Correct the problem, and ensure that the resource can be safely restarted.
5. Enter RES beside the resource to reset the status of the resource.

   Automation restarts for the resource.
