The following table includes general troubleshooting information.
Table 1. General Troubleshooting
Error message or scenario Solution or workaround

When attempting to command a multi-state point in the Metasys UI, you receive the following error message: The command contains values out of range, even though the values are valid.

In some instances, this error message is correct.

However, occasionally the Online Archive that exists on the engine is out of sync with the Online Archive that exists on the server Site Director. To resolve this issue, execute a Sync engine command on the engine for the equipment the point resides on.

On a unified Metasys system that is starved for resources, the ActionQueue service may not properly start at system boot. The service does run correctly if it is started after the system boot is complete. Set the ActionQueue service to a delayed start.
An unsafe assembly message appears in SQL logs. This message is an information message and is not an error message that requires action. This message is informing the SQL administrator that SQL cannot verify that the assembly is safe. However, the Metasys system uses assemblies included with Metasys databases to perform functions on input argument values and return data. The unsafe assembly message denotes that the assembly requires additional access to restricted resources; however, no user action is required.

During Metasys server installation RabbitMQ configuration fails with the message: RabbitMQ.Client.Exceptions.

  6. Run: rabbitmq-service remove.
  7. Run: rabbitmq-service install.
