Retire Element
The Retire Element object retires an
element so that it will no longer be pinged by CA eHealth.
To un-retire an element, you must
use the Unretire command in
CA eHealth.
If you generate a report about a
retired element, no data will appear in the report for the time
that the element was retired.
Retired elements are discoverable by
the Discover Element object. However, the Discover Element object
lists the retired element using a unique name. For example, if the
original name of the element was CPU1, and CPU1 was retired, when
the Discover Element object discovers it, CPU1 is added to CA
eHealth as CPU1a.
How it is used
Use the Retire Element to stop CA
eHealth from pinging elements that were unreachable.
Configuration
To configure the Retire Element
object you need to know the name of the element that you want to
retire.
