KBI 310676 New Feature: Allow/Disallow Recursive Alert Macro
Version
Argent Advanced Technology 3.1A-1308-A or below
Date
Thursday, 26 Sep 2013
Summary
A new registry entry has been added to optionally disable macro recursion, the key is:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\ARGENT\ARGENT_CONSOLE\ALLOW_RECURSIVE_ALERT_MACRO
Technical Background
Though recursive definition is a very powerful tool in some situation, sometimes it can be misused
The new registry key permits customers to control the use of this feature, the key is:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\ARGENT\ARGENT_CONSOLE\ALLOW_RECURSIVE_ALERT_MACRO
The recursive Alert Macro definition is allowed if the value is 1 (TRUE)
By default, the value is 1 (TRUE) and the recursive definition is allowed, which is the consistent with previous Argent AT versions
To disable, set this registry key to 0
When the recursive definition is disallowed, the Alert Macro branch is removed when customer brings up the Alert Macro definition dialog box
Resolution
Upgrade to Argent Advanced Technology 3.1A-1310-A or later
