Note:
If, instead of the eye window and View window, SPECTRUM displays a window with a message similar to this
one
Error: No SpectroSERVER to talk to!
then SpectroSERVER is not running on the selected host. Select Close on this window. Repeat this action and select the
correct host name (the one that you selected for SpectroSERVER).
In this document we suggest you export and examine the data one model type at a time. Select a model type. We suggest
using type HubCSIMRXi, a common Cabletron Systems MRXI Repeater. If you do not have models of this type,
whenever you see references in this document to HubCSIMRXi, substitute another model type that you do have,
preferably a common model type. To determine the model type for most models, follow this path from the Topology
View window:
Select the Model -> View -> Icon Subviews -> Model Information
The Model Type field contains the model type name that SPECTRUM uses. To close this window and go back to the
Topology View window, select File and Close.
If there is no Model Information for that model type, check the SPECTRUM document Management Module Guide for
that device.
Perform all the steps in this task from within SpectroGRAPH.
If the Topology view window is partially or fully overlaid,
make it the top window so that it is fully visible.
c. Select the first node of type HubCSIMRXi from which you want to collect data.
You may need to select down to a lower layer of the map to locate the device of interest.
The "Find" view can be very useful for locating a particular model or all models of a particular model type.
i. Locate all nodes of type HubCSIMRXi.
Select...
View -> New View -> Find...
When the Find Attribute Selection window displays, select
Model-Type Name
->
OK
Type
HubCSIMRXi
(remember that model type names are case sensitive) and select
OK
, in the
Find Models
with Model-Type Name
field.
SPECTRUM displays a list of all models of this model type.
ii. Select a node from the list.
Double-click on the node name.
The icon representing that node displays above the list.
d. Begin polling and logging data for the device.
i. Select the appropriate icon subview.
