Question & Answer

Cause


Answer

Longer Custom Situation name (> 24 chars) will fail showing the following error at IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Tivoli Storage Manager agent log (also known as "sk" agent):

2014-05-09 14:06:35.000000 TSMDerbyDB: Error Inserting PARMS in the Database: INSERT INTO ATTRPROP (SERVERNAME, ATTRIBUTEGROUP, KEYVALUE) VALUES ('','CMF:SITUATION_NAME_LONGER_THAN_TWENTYFOUR_CHARS', '1140509005200000')
2014-05-09 14:06::35.000000 ClientMissedFiles: Error updating situational data in DERBY).


In order to fix the problem, reduce the length of Custom Situation name to be shorter than 24 characters.
