KBI 311655 Issue Addressed: Delayed Daughter Offline Event Was Not Fired
Version
Argent Advanced Technology 5.1A-1804-A or above
Date
Tuesday, 24 April 2018
Summary
Argent Advanced Technology can be configured to fire internal Events for offline Daughter Engines
In order not to fire such an Event for a temporary condition, for example, Daughter Engine go offline than come back 30 seconds later, the seconds to delay firing Event can be specified
However, when this feature is used, the Event might not be fired in the end
The following line could be seen in the service log
The issue has been addressed in Argent Advanced Technology 5.1A-1804-B
Technical Background
The issue is caused by coding error
Internal Event has an internal time stamp for delayed Events
The timestamp is the time that the Event should be fired if the condition has not been corrected
The Engine mistakenly replaces existing internal Event of offline Daughter Engine with new ones without keeping the timestamp value
As a result, the Event is kept pushing to the future to fire
In some combination, the Event might not be fired at all
When the condition is corrected, the event is simply discarded as transient Event
Resolution
Upgrade to Argent Advanced Technology 5.1A-1804-B or above
For customers who cannot upgrade immediately, consider resetting the Event delay seconds to zero
