Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:


Unable to view EDAA Notifications and details for SMARTS.

When trying to access the EDAA Notifications under Operation --> Network --> Notifications and the details tab in SMARTS topology, user is asked to enter Watch4net credentials again.











Environment

VMware Smart Assurance - SMARTS
VMware Smart Assurance - Watch4Net/M&R

Cause

apg.properties, report configuration in the solution pack, runcmd_env.sh in SMARTS, and the URL used to access Watch4Net do not have the proper hostname, FQDN, or the IP all across.

Resolution

You need to make sure that the solution pack configuration, runcmd_env.sh in SMARTS, URL used to access Watch4Net and apg.properties match for the hostname, FQDN, or the IP.

URL used to access Watch4Net: http://FQDN/APG/#/

SM_CAS_SERVER=http://FQDN:58080

apg.properties in the opt/APG/bin/ directory:
#===================
# Common Properties
#===================
hostname=FQDN

Solution pack Reporting configuration:



All the above need to match if either the IP, hostname or the FQDN is used.

Any change in the following requires a restart of services in Watch4Net.

Linux:
- Navigate to /opt/APG/bin/./manage-modules.sh service restart all

Windows:
- Navigate to /opt/APG/bin/manage-modules.cmd service restart all

After the restart, user will not be asked to enter Watch4Net credentials again when viewing EDAA Notifications.
