Startup Settings tab

The following tasks can be performed from the Startup Settings tab:

Specify thresholds that trigger map and connection pending state traps.
Identify the Launcher and contact information for the human network manager.

Thresholds

The following information is used to set thresholds for map and connection pending states. These thresholds settings are implemented when the SNMP Agent first establishes a connection with the Launcher and are used to trigger a trap.

See "Thresholds" for more information on thresholds. See "Traps" for more information on traps.

Init Pending Count: This is the number of maps in initialization pending state that will trigger a trap.
IO Pending Count: This is the number of maps in input/output pending state will trigger a trap.
Connection Pending Count: This is the number of connections in pending state will trigger a trap.
Resource Pending Count: This is the number of maps in resource pending state will trigger a trap.
See the Launcher documentation for more information on map pending states.

MIB II

The following information is used to help you physically locate the machine hosting the Launcher and contact the person responsible:

sysName: This is the contact name for the person that is responsible for the Launcher in case of problems.
sysContact: This is the phone number for the person that is responsible for the Launcher in case of problems
sysLocation: This is the physical location and description of the Launcher.
Authentication Traps: This option enables the SNMP Agent to send a notification to the valid SNMP manager when the community name or context name and access rights of the SNMP manager sending the request does not match the community name and access rights defined in the dtx.acl file or the dtx.uacl file.

SNMP Agent tracing

The SNMP Agent Trace Level option appends tracing information to the log file that is generated when the SNMP Agent is started. The following options are available:

Option: Description
Disable: No tracing information is added to the log file.
Level 1: Exception error information is added to the log file.
Level 2: Trap and exception error information is added to the log file.

When you run the SNMP Agent on UNIX operating systems with tracing enabled, log information about the Launcher and associated map events is not only output to a file, but also output to the standard output console. To see how to disable the logging of the messages to the output console, see Disabling the logging of messages to the output console.
