How to disable NotifierManager resource during maintenance window

[paragarw]

Hello Guys,

I want to disable NotifierManager resource as i dont email alerts to be sent during planned maintenance window.

I tried following steps.

[root@abc ~]# hares -offline ntfr -sys abc
[root@abc ~]# hares -modify ntfr Enabled 0
VCS WARNING V-16-1-50037 Can not disable non-persistent resource which is not in a clean offline state
[root@abc ~]#

What are the correct steps to temporarily disable email alerts in VCS

Just offline the resource. If that doesn't work then instead of updating "Enabled" update the "SMTP Recipients"

Thanks Rian. I'll try.

Hi,

Looks like the offline of the notifier resource didnot complete successfully. Hence when you try to disable the resource it gives the "VCS WARNING V-16-1-50037 Can not disable non-persistent resource which is not in a clean offline state" error.

Kindly check the state of the notifier resource

#hares -satate ntfr -sys abc

Also as Riaan mentioned, removing the SMTP recipents would also work.
