General tab

The following tasks can be performed from the General tab:

  • Login and connect to the Launcher
  • Configure SNMP Agent IP address and port number information
  • Specify interval at which to check Launcher status

Launcher

The following information is used when connecting to the Launcher:

Login Name
This is the name of the Launch user. Launcher user profiles are set up in the Launcher Administration
Password
This is the password for the Launcher user. Launcher user profiles are set up in the Launcher Administration.
Port
This is the port number of the Launcher's listening port. The listening port for the Launcher is set up in the Launcher Administration.

See the Launcher documentation for more information about the Launcher.

Host
This name of the machine on which the Launcher is physically located.

SNMP Agent

The following information is used if multiple instances of the SNMP Agent are installed on the same machine.

On the Windows platform, the agent can be binded to one IP address on multiple ports. On UNIX platforms, the agent can be binded to multiple IP addresses on the same port or on multiple ports using virtual network interfaces.

SNMP IP Address
This is the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the SNMP Agent.
SNMP Port
This is the port number of the SNMP Agent.
SNMP Trap Port
This is the port number to receive trap notifications. The SNMP manager installed on the machine that is connected to that port will receive trap notifications. The default port number is 162.

A trap community must be defined in the dtx.acl file that specifies which IP addresses or domains are to receive trap notifications. The port number that the specified IP address is binded to is specified in the SNMP Trap Port field.

System heartbeat

The following information is used to specify an interval for determining the system status of the Launcher:

System Status Polling Period (sec)
This is the interval, in seconds, at which the SNMP Agent will check the Launcher status.
