Alert migration fails when upgrading InsightIQ from version 6.0.1 to 6.1.0, when attempting to migrate generated alerts that are associated with deleted alert policies and or alert rules that existed previously. This issue occurs only when the top alerts (according to alert ID) in the View Alerts section on InsightIQ UI belong to the deleted policy and or rule category. If the top alert is associated with an existing rule and policy, the migration proceeds without any issue, even if there are generated alerts linked to deleted rules or policies following the valid alert.
If a failure occurs during the InsightIQ upgrade due to alert migration, follow the steps below: Download the tar from location: list_deleted_rules_policies_delete_associated_alerts.tar Untar the tar using command: tar -xvf list_deleted_rules_policies_delete_associated_alerts.tar Run the script : bash list_deleted_rules_policies_delete_associated_alerts.sh Retrigger the upgrade Verification: To confirm the upgrade status, check logs using command: showupg -l The successful upgrade shows the below message: Successfully completed 100% of the upgrade and related activities If the upgrade still does not complete, contact Dell Support .
