Status Item Configuration Screen
Status Item Configuration Screen
Figure 3-11 shows the format for the Status Item Configuration screen.
Field Descriptions
1. Status Configuration File. Name of the status configuration file that you are
modifying. Use the Profile screen if you want to modify a different Configuration
file.
2. Display Type. Name by which the status server process identifies the status item
being configured. In most cases, this field is filled in for you either by the status
server itself (when you press F13 to scan the server types) or by the Network Status
Summary screen when you requested configuration for a specific item. However,
you can make an entry in this field to add or reconfigure a specific item if you know
the valid display types for the given server (identified in field 5, Server Class).
3. Item Description. This is a 26-character field where you enter a description for the
status item being configured. The description should be meaningful to you at your
installation, using familiar node and object names. It need not be unique. It appears
at the start of the line on the Network Status Summary screen.
4. Object Name. If the display type defined above consists of more than one object
(such as the separate CPUs in a network node), you can make separate status items
for each object by specifying an object name in this field. Use the name expected
by the status server. The names expected by the standard status server are listed in
