Suspend and resume RN tests

RN tests (aka Self‑Test), when running, can reduce the memory pool and can interfere with RN testing. The onQ Portal enables you to suspend all RN tests that are currently running.

Suspending and resuming RN tests do not generate alert emails. Moreover, an alert email will not be generated on the next successful test after RN tests resume. However, an alert will be generated if an RN test failure occurs after RN tests resume.

To suspend all RN tests:

1.	Do one of the following:

•	From the HA Appliance or the DR Appliance, go to the SELF TEST tab > ADD INDIVIDUAL button.

•	Go to DASHBOARD tab > RECOVERY NODES page, then unlock the page.

2.	Click on the Suspend Self Test button, then Suspend.

The Suspend icon appears in the page header to the right of the Protection On/Off display, and messages appear in the Self Test log:

Suspend RN Self-Tests of ALL	onQ instructs the scheduler to suspend all RN tests.
Request to stop Self-Test for <host>	Appears if an RN test is currently running.
Self-Test stopped	Appears when the scheduler successfully stops the RN test(s).

To restart all RN tests:

•	From the HA Appliance or the DR Appliance, go to the SELF TEST tab > ADD INDIVIDUAL button.

•	Go to DASHBOARD tab > RECOVERY NODES page, then unlock the page.

3.	Click on the Resume Self Test button, then Resume.

The Self Test log indicates Resume RN Self-Tests for ALL.
