3.1 BI Warning Scheduled Event generates an email every 15 minutes when it shouldn't
Problem
When we performed the upgrade to 1.3.05.00, we created the BI Warning Scheduled Event as part of the Post Update Steps. The next day, I double checked the Scheduled Event, and the warning size box was empty. I set it again to 1.0 GB. Since then, I've been getting an email every 15 minutes showing me the size of the BI file growth. Why is this happening and what can I do to stop it?
Solution
This is a known issue in build 3.1.05.00 and greater.
If you Change the BI Warning Scheduled Event, the value in the BI File Warning Size (GB) field gets initialized when you Save the record. Any time you go back into the Event after that, the field is blank and anything you enter gets erased when you Save the record. The system is reading the blank BI File Warning Size as 0, thus anything greater that 0 is being seen as 'over capacity.' This is why you are getting the email every 15 minutes.
The resolution is currently in development and will be corrected in a future build.
The current work around is to go to Scheduled Events Management, delete the BI Warning Event, and recreate it. Once you recreate the Event, do NOT go back into it, else the pattern will repeat.
