Now, all the Asset Category fields are displaying in the Asset Allocation e-mail notifications sent to the End User for both older and new Assets.


The Incident IDs that were getting generated while Monitoring for down Servers, Devices, or Links, were not in the continuous Incident ID series. This issue was occurring when the session was timed out before all the Incident IDs were generated for the down Servers, Devices, or Links.


Example: While Monitoring the Servers, if 20 Servers were down and only 10 Incidents were created as Incident ID 101, 102, and so on till Incident ID 110, and the session timed out. When the session was restored, all the data was rolled back and none of the Incidents were created. During the next Monitoring, when the next Incident ID was created for a down device, it was starting from Incident ID 111.

Now, Incident IDs that are generated for down Servers, Devices, or Links are not rolled back when session times out. After the session is restored, the Application creates Incident IDs in continuation with the last Incident ID logged. As per the example, all the Incidents are logged for down devices from Incident ID 101 - 120 even if session times out in between while generating the Incident IDs. Also, during the next Monitoring, when the next Incident ID is logged, it starts from Incident ID 121.
