ESMPRO Agent for Linux 3-7
Base Settings
The Agent can respond to an event using any of the three methods selected in
the Base Setting menu, but only if the method is enabled and configured. The
report contents include a detailed message, support method, and the alert type.
Manager
- Select this setting to use SNMP as the reporting method to send
alerts to the Manager. For this method to work you must specify the manager
console’s IP address as an SNMP trap destination.
Manager (TCP_IP In-Band)
– Select this setting to use TCP/IP to send an
alert to a manager within the local-area network (LAN environment).
Manager (TCP_IP Out-of-Band)
– Select this setting to use TCP/IP to send an
alert to a manager outside of the local-area network using remote access service
over a dial-up network (WAN environment).
Shutdown Delay
- Enter a time period for the shutdown delay.
When the managed server receives a command to shut down, it will first display
a pop-up message to alert you of the impending shut down. You can cancel the
shutdown from the pop-up message. If you don't respond to the pop-up message,
the managed server shuts down. The time delay you specify here on the
Shutdown Delay Setting dialog box is the amount of time the pop-up message
appears on the screen of the managed server before it shuts down.
Note:
To enable remote shutdown, enable “Shutdown
Delay” in the “Base Setting” window of the “Alert Manager
Report Setting Utility (
./ESMamsadm
).” Refer to the “Report
Setting” section found earlier in this chapter. Also, enable
“Remote Shutdown” in the “General Properties” screen of
the ESMPRO Agent Configuration Utility (
./ESMagntconf
).”
See “Monitoring Function – General Properties” found later
in this chapter.
