Content

Verba System Monitor has detected that the database is not accessible.

Computer name: <COMPUTER_NAME>
SQL server name: <DB_HOST>
User name: <DB_LOGIN_NAME>

Cause

This alert is sent if the Verba server mentioned in the alert email cannot connect to the database.

Resolution

If you receive such an alert, please check the connections between the servers and the database. Please note that if you received the "Database Connection Up" alert as well, the communication between the Verba component and the database is back in normal, the connection lost state was temporary.

If you didn't receive the "Connection Up" alert, and there's no connection between the server and the database, contact your IT team.
If the connection is up, but Verba components still can not communicate with the Database, please contact the support service and send the log files of the related service(s).

Log files are available under "APPLICATION_FOLDER\log" (by default C:\Program Files\Verba\log) folder on each server.
