The Mib Poller Summary - Extreme Networks EPICenter Guide Manual

Using the MIB Poller Tools

The MIB Poller Summary

If a file has been loaded, the MIB Poller Summary shows the names of the collections
collection.xml
defined in the xml file, along with their status (running or stopped). Figure 59 shows the summary for a
a set of three collections.
Figure 59: The MIB Poller Collection Summary
From this page, any user can view the details of the collection, view information about the devices on
which data is being collected, view the xml file that defines the collections, and export the current
results of the collection.
An EPICenter Administrator can start or stop polling for any or all of the collections, and can reload the
file.
collections.xml
Loading, Starting and Stopping a Collection
If a file named exists in the EPICenter server's directory when
collections.xml user/collections
the EPICenter server is started, the collection definitions in the file are loaded automatically. Polling for
the collections will be started if the initialState property specifies that the collection should be running.
If the EPICenter server is already running when the file is placed in the collections
collections.xml
directory, then you must click the Reload button to load the collection definitions.
Once you have loaded the file, the collections defined in that file will continue to be
collections.xml
maintained, either running or stopped, until they are replaced by reloading the file
collections.xml
