To start the monitoring process, connect the agent and log in to the e-Biz Impact server where the clusters that you want to monitor reside.
Once a connection is established, the agent monitors the e-Biz Impact server by representing the data received from the server MIB (Management Information Base) through SNMP.
The MIB is similar to a schema for published data. The
MIB describes how the data is published; for example, organization
and data types. The e-Biz Impact MIB file is Impact8.my,
which is located in x:\Sybase\ImpactServer-5_4\snmp on
Windows and in ~/Sybase/ImpactServer-5_4/snmp/ on
UNIX, where “x” and “~” represent
the drive, directory, or file system where the e-Biz Impact server
is installed.
Connecting an agent to an e-Biz Impact server
In the Global Console on Windows, select the agent in the tree view.
Right-click the selected agent and select All Tasks | Connect.
To automatically connect an agent when you start the Global Console, select the Reconnect at Startup option on the agent properties General tab.
When an agent connection is established, the e-Biz Impact server bus structure displays in the main window.
Logging in to a e-Biz Impact server
To execute commands on the applications contained in the cluster, you must log in to the e-Biz Impact server.
Right-click the cluster icon in the tree view and select Login.
Enter the user ID and password associated with a user that is defined in the Authorization database.
If the agent is unable to connect, an error appears, indicating the source of the problem. Check to see if the agent properties, such as community string or port number, are valid, and verify that SNMP service is started on the server.
If you are using e-Biz Impact security, operators can
execute only the commands for which their security role is authorized.
See the e-Biz Impact Authorization Guide for
more information. See the e-Biz Impact Command Line
Tools Guide for more information about CNC requests.
