Ethernet Subagent
Starting the Ethernet Subagent
Start the Ethernet Subagent using the TACL RUN command. Be sure to specify the
name of a running SNMP agent. Following is an example of starting an Ethernet
Subagent named $ZESA, with a backup process running in processor 6, that
communicates with SNMP agent $ZSNMP:
RUN ETHSA /NAME $ZESA, NOWAIT/ -a $ZSNMP -b 6
Syntax of the startup options follows established conventions used in the Guardian
environment.
[RUN] [[$volume.]subvolume.]ETHSA
/ NAME $eth-tr-subagent-process [,other-run-option]... /
[ startup-parameter [startup-parameter]...]
volume
identifies the volume on which the Ethernet Subagent program file (ETHSA)
resides. You can omit it if ETHSA resides on your current subvolume. By default,
the DSM/SCM program puts ETHSA into $SYSTEM.
subvolume
identifies the subvolume on which ETHSA resides. You can omit it if it is named in
your TACL #PMSEARCHLIST. By default, the DSM/SCM program puts ETHSA
into SYSTEM.
eth-tr-subagent-process
identifies the Ethernet Subagent process. You can specify from one through five
alphanumeric characters, but the first character must be alphabetic.
other-run-option
is any of the TACL RUN command options. Refer to the TACL Reference Manual
for more information about these options. HP recommends using at least the
NOWAIT option so that you can resume TACL operations once the subagent is
started.
