Configuring The Poa For Snmp Monitoring; Notifying The Groupwise Administrator - Novell GROUPWISE 8 - ADMINISTRATION Administration Manual

37.6.3 Configuring the POA for SNMP Monitoring

In order for SNMP monitoring programs to monitor the POA, the POA must be configured with a
network address and SNMP community string.
1 Browse to and right-click the POA object, then click Properties.
2 Click GroupWise > Network Address to display the Network Address page.
3 Click the pencil icon to provide the TCP/IP address or IPX
where the POA runs, then click Apply.
4 Click GroupWise > Agent Settings page, then scroll to the bottom of the settings list.
5 Provide your system SNMP community GET string, then click OK.
ConsoleOne then notifies the POA to restart so the new settings can be put into effect.
The POA should now be visible to your SNMP monitoring program.

37.7 Notifying the GroupWise Administrator

If you want to be notified with an e-mail message whenever POAs encounter critical errors, you can
designate yourself as an administrator of the domain where the post offices are located.
1 In ConsoleOne, browse to and right-click the Domain object, then click Properties to display
the Identification page.
2 In the Administrator field, browse to and select your GroupWise user ID.
A domain can have a single administrator, or you can create a group of users to function as
administrators.
3 Click OK to save the administrator information.
The selected user or group then begins receiving e-mail messages whenever POAs servicing
post offices in the domain encounter critical errors.
