1.The System Manager locates its own log files for each agent host in the Monitored Host list.
2.If Automatic Startup Status Poll is enabled (see “General Preferences” on page 116), the monitored hosts are polled for their status. If they are Scheduled or Running, their subsequent alerts and errors are added to the System Manager’s log files.
3.If Automatic Startup Alert Resynchronization is enabled (see “General Preferences” on page 116), any alerts in each agent’s log file that are newer than the latest one in the System Manager’s alert log file for that agent are transferred to the System Manager. If the alert log file for that agent is empty, all alerts are transferred.
TIP | To avoid reloading deleted alerts, just retain the most recent alert message. |

The error log files are not resynchronized.
If Automatic Startup Status Poll is disabled, you must poll the status of the agent hosts before you can resynchronize them. See “Getting the Status of Agent Hosts” on page 48.
If Automatic Startup Alert Resynchronization is disabled, use the following procedure to synchronize them.
To resynchronize agent hosts
On the System Manager screen,
Step 1. In the Monitored Hosts list, select the hosts you want to resynchronize. The status of these hosts must be Available, Scheduled, or Running.
Step 2. Do one of the following:
•Click the Resync button
•Choose the Actions > Resync menu item
•Press
•
Any alerts in each agent’s log file that are newer than the last one seen by the System Manager are transferred to the System Manager’s log files. The numbers will be updated on the Monitored Hosts list and the alerts and errors will be displayed on the Network Node screen for each host. The updates will continue as alerts and errors are generated and the System Manager is running.
