HP Management Integration Framework Administrator Guide (T5494-96539, October 2012)

• Subnet mask. A valid subnet mask for the IP address of this machine. The default is
255.255.255.240.
• Example
IPv4: 192.168.1.20/255.255.254.0:8080
Non-local registry entry time-out
This discovery setting establishes how long Management Integration Framework software waits
before it removes non-local entries from its registry. The entries are removed if they are not updated
during the time-out period.
• Typical use. Used in conjunction with a change in the Registry Table Update interval.
• The default is 60 seconds (1 minute).
• If you change the setting, it must be in the range of 1 to 3600 seconds (1 hour).
• Considerations. If the non-local registry entry time-out is shorter than the Registry Table Updates
interval, then the Management Integration Framework registry will not maintain constant entries
for the other machines.
• Non-local registry entries are the entries for member machines other than the machine on
which the Management Integration Framework registry is located.
Registry table updates
This discovery setting establishes how often Management Integration Framework software refreshes
its registry table.
• Typical use. If the network of Management Group member machines is large, or if updates
are frequent, it may be necessary to change this setting.
• The default is 10 seconds.
• If you change the setting, it must be in the range of 1 to 3600 seconds (1 hour).
• Considerations. When changing (increasing) this setting, be sure to make corresponding
changes to the Non-local Registry Entry Timeout setting. Otherwise, non-local registry entries
could be prematurely timed-out or not kept.
Registry update address (IPv4/IPv6)
This discovery setting establishes specific IP addresses and ports to which all registry entries are
sent.
• Typical use. When an administrator wants to specify specific IP addresses and ports.
• By default this setting is empty. A specific entry is not required.
• If you change this setting, you can use any legal IPv4 or IPv6 address and port number, or a
DNS name.
• The IP version must be the same as certain other settings, otherwise the Management Integration
Framework will not work properly. See Setting the same IP version.
