  • 1.  Orphaned Service Types

    Posted Mar 24, 2010 05:50 PM
    I've found something strange occurring after some of my experimentation with trying to develop plug-ins. If I create a plug in that defines a service, then remove that plug-in, the service will still appear in all the "type" drop downs (such as the "new service" creation or the filter on platform inventory screens). Has anyone else experienced this? How do I make these go away?

    Hi,

    yes I have also seen this behaviour. Hyperic HQ does not remove plugins from the drop down lists if you remove them.
    You could probably run a special SQL command to remove the plugins and its services.
    Please be very careful.

    Try to use the SQL interface and have a look at the following tables: http://<HQ_SERVER_IP>:7080/admin/sql.jsp

    select * from EAM_PLUGIN;
    select * from EAM_SERVICE_TYPE;

    If you use an UPDATE statement to remove service types from that table, please make sure that it is not being referenced any longer.



    Cheers,
    Mirko

    If you have problem with sql query and use built in database.

    phppgadmin is your friend. you are able to connect hyperichq db with hqadmin/hqadmin login. Of course dont publish pgadmin to internet, because you will hacked.

    I am using MySQL. I was able to fix the issue by removing the offending records in PHP admin.
    Thank you.
