HP EVA KM for PATROL can be reinitialized if it does not function properly after a configuration change or a software/hardware upgrade. Reinitializing the KM will reinitialize the configuration and let HP EVA KM for PATROL re-start monitoring from scratch. The KM will then run a full discovery and re-start the monitoring of existing and new components. Thresholds will be set to default so all previously manually set thresholds will be lost, unless specified otherwise in the Reinitialize KM window shown below.
 A backup of the PATROL Agent configuration is always performed and saved in the $PATROL_HOME/config directory before a reinitialization of the KM.
To reinitialize HP EVA KM for PATROL:
| 1. | Right-click the HP EVA icon > KM Commands > Reinitialize KM: |
Reinitializing the KM
| 2. | Select the options as per your specific needs: |
Alert thresholds and actions
| ▪ | Remove manually customized alert thresholds: Selection removes all customized thresholds. |
| ▪ | Reset the threshold mechanism mode to default: Selection makes the KM revert to the default mode i.e. HP EVA KM for PATROL selects the mechanism that is best suited to the system. |
| ▪ | Reset Alert Actions: Selection removes all manually set Alert Actions and reverts to basic default actions i.e. Trigger a PATROL event and Annotate a parameter graph. |
| ▪ | Reset other alert and threshold settings: Selection reverts any manually done configuration changes to default HP EVA KM for PATROL values. |
Misc. options
| ▪ | Deactivate the debug mode: Selection deactivates the debug mode if manually enabled. |
| ▪ | Restore and resume paused/removed objects: Selection restores all paused or removed objects. |
Monitoring settings
| ▪ | Remove the connection settings: Selection discards the SSSU connection settings (username, password). |
Internal KM engine options
| ▪ | forceClassicConfigMode: Selection forces the KM to run in Classic Mode. (Option available only if the KM is already running in CA mode) |
Save reinitialize settings
| ▪ | Save reinitialize setting: Selection saves the defined settings that will then be considered as default. |
In cases where configurations have been manually set in the PATROL Agent, there will be an additional section called Internal KM engine options displaying the used configuration variables and the option whether or not to remove them.
