The issue about the Yum RPM DB Corruption. Thread died in Berkeley DB library. Fatal error, run database recovery” has been a bit frequent on the OS level (I understand this is not something related to the platform support). The occurence of this issue is ideally resolved with the help of KB https://support.sciencelogic.com/s/article/8821 . But, I was looking if there ia  way to alert on this and be aware something broke instead of being silent on this.

Hello,

 

We do not currently have any monitoring or alerting for this behavior in Skylar One. However, this is a behavior detected by the system status script that runs on the appliances. The yum RPM DB corruption does not cause any issues in terms of the operation of the appliance, though it may cause issues during a system update.

 

I do recommend submitting this as a feature request in our Idea’s Hub however to get active monitoring for the yum RPM DB corruption issue.
