CHAPTER 6 Troubleshooting SySAM Issues

SySAM grace period

Typically, you get a 30-day grace period to resolve any SySAM-related issues. When a license is awarded under grace, the Adaptive Server errorlog entry and optional e-mail message includes the date and time when the grace period expires. In addition, you can execute sp_lmconfig to determine the expiration date. The Expiry Date column next to any row that shows graced status indicates the date and time the grace period expires. Adaptive Server disables the functionality corresponding to the license if the issue is not fixed within that time. Adaptive Server itself shuts down if the graced license is ASE_CORE.

Enabling and changing e-mail notifications

You can configure the e-mail notification setup using sp_lmconfig. Run

sp_lmconfig command without any parameters to view the current status and configuration.

To enable e-mail notifications, set the smtp host, smtp port, email sender, email recipients, and email severity properties.

To change the severity that triggers e-mails, set the email severity property.

Values are: "ERROR", "WARNING", "INFORMATIONAL" and "NONE".

To change the list of e-mail recipients, set the email recipients property to the comma separated list of e-mail addresses. E-mail addresses can include distribution lists, e-mail address for a pager device, and anything that is capable of receiving SMTP messages.
