5.3.3 Error handling

These options are effective for Windows and Linux operating systems and bootable media.

These options enable you to specify how to handle errors that might occur during recovery.

Do not show messages and dialogs while processing (silent mode)

The preset is: Disabled.

With the silent mode enabled, the program will automatically handle situations requiring user
interaction where possible. If an operation cannot continue without user interaction, it will fail.
Details of the operation, including errors, if any, can be found in the operation log.

Re-attempt, if an error occurs

The preset is: Enabled. Number of attempts: 30. Interval between attempts: 30 seconds.

When a recoverable error occurs, the program re-attempts to perform the unsuccessful operation.
You can set the time interval and the number of attempts. The attempts will be stopped as soon as
the operation succeeds OR the specified number of attempts are performed, depending on which
comes first.

For example, if the network location becomes unavailable or not reachable, the program will attempt
to reach the location every 30 seconds, but no more than 5 times. The attempts will be stopped as
soon as the connection is resumed OR the specified number of attempts is performed, depending on
which comes first.

5.3.4 Event tracing

It is possible to send log events of the recovery operations, performed on the managed machine, to
the specified SNMP managers.

5.3.4.1

SNMP notifications

This option is effective for both Windows and Linux operating systems.

This option is not available when operating under the bootable media.

The option defines whether the agent(s) operating on the managed machine have to send the log
events of the recovery operations to the specified Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
managers. You can choose the types of events to be sent.
