Using the Global Console

To use the Global Console, you must perform the configuration steps in Chapter 2, “Configuring the Global Console.”

1. If you implement e-Biz Impact security, you must set up the Adaptive Server Anywhere authorization database on the e-Biz Impact server prior to configuring the Global Console. See the e-Biz Impact Authorization Guide for instructions.

2. Add the ims wrapper script location to the PATH environment variable. See “Setting the ims wrapper script path”.

3. Configure the directory for the port that the SNMP service or daemon uses. See “Configuring the SNMP port directory”.

4. Start the SNMP EMANATE Master Agent. See “Starting the SNMP EMANATE Master Agent”.

5. Configure e-Biz Impact clusters to publish telemetry to the SNMP service. See “Configuring clusters to publish SNMP telemetry”.

6. Start the cluster. See “Starting clusters”.

7. Start the Global Console. See “Starting the Global Console”.

8. Create an SNMP agent for each cluster you want to monitor. See “Creating SNMP agents”.

When you complete the configuration, you can begin monitoring cluster activity on e-Biz Impact servers. See Chapter 3, “Using the Global Console.”

Administrators or other authorized users can also issue command and control (CNC) requests from Global Console to restart clusters, reprocess problem transactions, and perform other cluster activities. See “Performing Global Console tasks”.
