TCP/IP Subagent

Starting the TCP/IP Subagent
Users of the -s option can monitor only a the following private MIB objects for
information about subnets of the TCP/IP processes: TCPIP process name,
TCPIPstatus, subnet name, subnet status, and subnet address. Users cannot
monitor all MIB-II entries of the TCP/IP processes.
The maximum number of TCP/IP subsystems that can be monitored using this
option is 32.
-scp $scp-process
is the name of the SCP process to be used for SPI requests for deriving MIB
object values. The SCP process named must be running and on the same
node as the subagent process.
The default is $ZNET.
-stats stats-cache-refresh
specifies, in seconds, the rate at which the TCP/IP Subagent updates values of
objects that it retrieves by issuing a SPI STATISTICS command.
The range for stats-cache-refresh is 0 to 32000. A value of 0 disables
this timer, indicating that SPI STATISTICS-derived MIB values are only
refreshed when the ztsaRefreshNow object is set to forceDynamicRefresh (1).
The default is 60 seconds.
-status status-cache-refresh
specifies, in seconds, the rate at which the TCP/IP Subagent updates values of
objects that it retrieves by issuing a SPI STATUS command.
The range for status-cache-refresh is 0 to 32000. A value of 0 disables
this timer, indicating that SPI STATUS-derived MIB values are refreshed only
when the ztsaRefreshNow object is set to forceDynamicRefresh (1).
The default is 90 seconds.
-t $tcpip-process
is the name of the TCP/IP process the subagent is to query. The TCP/IP
process must be running and on the same node as the subagent process. For
Parallel Library TCP/IP and NonStop TCP/IPv6, the TCPSAM or TCP6SAM
process must be running, but does not have to be on the same node as the
subagent.
The default is $ZTC0.
See The TCP/IP Subagent and Its Managed Resources on page 8-4 for further
considerations for NonStop TCP/IP. See the TCP/IP (Parallel Library)
Note. If you omit the -s startup parameter the instrumentation of new private MIB
objects will be suppressed.
