Stopping The Ethernet Subagent; Initiating Backup Process Takeover - HP T9576G06 Management Manual

Ethernet Subagent
The default value is 60.
Note. This timer value does not apply to objects that are placed in the disabled state
by an SNMP Set request. See
information on the possible states that can be set for processes used by the Ethernet
Subagent.
-r refresh-timer
specifies, in seconds, how often the subagent should refresh its cached values
for the MIB.
The default is 60 seconds.
-s $scp-process
is the name of the SCP process to be used for SPI requests for deriving MIB
object values. The SCP process named must be running and on the same
node as the subagent process.
The default is $ZNET.
-t $tcpip-process
is the name of the TCP/IP process whose Ethernet interfaces are to be
monitored by the subagent. The subagent communicates with the SLSA
subsystem using Shared Resource Library (SRL) calls for each interface to get
statistics.
The default is $ZTC0.

Stopping the Ethernet Subagent

Issue a TACL STOP command to stop an Ethernet Subagent process. For example:
STOP $ZESA

Initiating Backup Process Takeover

The Ethernet Subagent can be run as a process pair to achieve basic fault-tolerance.
The support includes a persistent subagent process and checkpointing of the startup
parameters.
To run the Ethernet Subagent as a process pair and have the backup process take
over in case the primary process fails, include the -b startup parameter when you start
the subagent. For example:
RUN ETHSA /NAME $ZESA, NOWAIT/ -b 6
Note. You must specify a backup CPU. Otherwise the Ethernet Subagent does not run as a
process pair.
