Check all RangerAdmin instances.

    • If yes, go to 5.

    • If no, restart the faulty RangerAdmin instance or Ranger service and go to 4.

  2. In the alarm list, check whether the alarm "Ranger Service Unavailable" is cleared.

    • If yes, no further action is required.

    • If no, go to 5.
