Properties and command line options
You use properties to specify how the probe interacts with the device. You can override the default values by using the properties file or the command line options.
The following table describes the properties and command line options specific to this probe. For information about default properties and command line options, see the IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus Probe and Gateway Guide (SC14-7608).
Property name |
Command line option |
Description |
|---|---|---|
Agentheartbeat integer |
-agentheartbeat integer |
Use this property to specify the frequency (in seconds) with which the probe pings the Alcatel-Lucent 1300 XMC. The default is 60. |
CommandPort integer |
-commandport integer |
Use this property to specify the port through which users can use Telnet to send commands to the probe. The default is 6970. |
CommandPortLimit integer |
-commandportlimit integer |
Use this property to specify the maximum number of Telnet connections that can be made to the probe. The default is 10. |
EncodingStandard string |
-encodingstandard string |
Use this property to specify the character encoding standard that the probe uses. The default is ISO-8859-1 (this sets the encoding standard to Latin Alphabet 1). |
EntryPointIORFile string |
-entrypointiorfile string |
Use this property to specify a local EntryPoint IOR file. The default is " ". Note: Leave
this property empty to retrieve a remote EntryPoint IOR file using
FTP. The probe looks for the remote IOR file in a vendor-specified
location on the Alcatel-Lucent 1300
XMC server.
|
FTPPassword string |
-ftppassword string |
Use this property to specify the password required for FTP access to the server on which the EntryPoint IOR file is located. The default is ftppassword. Note: Whenever possible,
the password should be encrypted using the nco_aes_crypt utility.
For more information, see the IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus
Administration Guide (SC14-7605).
|
FTPServer string |
-ftpserver string |
Use this property to specify the host name or IP address of the server on which the EntryPoint IOR file is located. The default is ftpserver. |
FTPTimeout integer |
-ftptimeout integer |
Use this property to specify the maximum amount of time (in seconds) that the probe waits to make an FTP connection before timing out. The default is 10. |
FTPUsername string |
-ftpusername string |
Use this property to specify the user name required for FTP access to the server on which the EntryPoint IOR file is located. The default is ftpusername. |
Inactivity integer |
-inactivity integer |
Use this property to specify the length of time (in seconds) that the probe waits for event activity before disconnecting from the Alcatel-Lucent 1300 XMC. The default is 0 (which disables this feature). |
ORBLocalHost string |
-orblocalhost string |
Use this property to specify the host name or IP address of the host to use when the local Object Request Broker (ORB) is initialized. The default is localhost. |
ORBLocalPort integer |
-orblocalport integer |
Use this property to specify the port number to use when the local ORB is initialized. The default is 0. |
Resync string |
-resync string |
Use this property to specify whether or not the probe attempts to resynchronize existing alarms during startup. This property takes the following values: false: The probe does not attempt resynchronization at startup. true: The probe does attempt resynchronization at startup. The default is true. |
ResyncBatchSize integer |
-resyncbatchsize integer |
Use this property to specify the number of alarms to return in each batch when resynchronizing. The default is 100. |
ResyncInterval integer |
-resyncinterval integer |
Use this property to specify the interval (in seconds) at which the probe makes successive resynchronization requests. The default is 0 (which disables this feature). |
Retry string |
-retry string |
Use this property to specify whether or not the probe attempts to reconnect to the system following a timeout or disconnection. This property takes the following values: false: The probe does not attempt to reconnect to the system. true: The probe does attempt to reconnect to the system. The default is false. |
SystemId string |
-systemid string |
Use this property to specify the system identifier to use when acknowledging alarms. The default is systemId. |
UserId string |
-userid string |
Use this property to specify the user identifier to use when acknowledging alarms. The default is userId. |
