This is a list of all alarms raised by this version of Rhino. For the management command that lists all alarms that may be raised by Rhino and installed components see Runtime Alarm List.

Alarm Type Description

Category: AbnormalExecution (Alarms raised as a result of an abnormal execution condition being detected)

rhino.uncaught-exception

An uncaught exception has been detected.

Category: Activity Handler (Alarms raised by Rhino activity handler)

rhino.ah.snapshot-age

A node left the cluster for some reason other than a management-initiated shutdown.

Category: Configuration Management (Alarms raised by the Rhino configuration manager)

rhino.config.save-error

An error occurred while trying to write the file-based configuration for the configuration type specified in the alarm instance.

rhino.config.read-error

An error occurred while trying to read the file-based configuration for the configuration type specified in the alarm instance. Rhino will use defaults from defaults.xml, move the broken configuration aside, and overwrite the config file.

rhino.config.activation-failure

An error occurred while trying to activate the file-based configuration for the configuration type specified in the alarm instance. Rhino will use defaults from defaults.xml, move the broken configuration aside, and overwrite the config file.

Category: Database (Alarms raised during database communications)

A persistence resource configuration referenced in rhino-config.xml has no persistence instances configured, or no configured persistence instances could be instantiated.

rhino.database.persistence-instance-instantiation-failure

Rhino requires a backing database for persistence of state for failure recovery purposes. A persistent instance defines a connection to a database backend. If the persistent instance cannot be instantiated then that connection cannot be made and state cannot be persisted to that instance.

This JVM is not a Sun/Oracle JVM. The Rhino SDK will raise this alarm but a Rhino Production instance will refuse to start.

rhino.runtime.unsupported.javamajorversion

This Java version is not a supported major version. The Rhino SDK will raise this alarm but a Rhino Production instance will refuse to start.
