Starting the Ethernet Subagent

Start the Ethernet Subagent using the TACL RUN command. Be sure to specify the

name of a running SNMP agent. Following is an example of starting an Ethernet

Subagent named $ZESA, with a backup process running in processor 6, that

communicates with SNMP agent $ZSNMP:

RUN ETHSA /NAME $ZESA, NOWAIT/ -a $ZSNMP -b 6

Syntax of the startup options follows established conventions used in the Guardian

environment.

volume

identifies the volume on which the Ethernet Subagent program file (ETHSA)

resides. You can omit it if ETHSA resides on your current subvolume. By default,

the DSM/SCM program puts ETHSA into $SYSTEM.

subvolume

identifies the subvolume on which ETHSA resides. You can omit it if it is named in

your TACL #PMSEARCHLIST. By default, the DSM/SCM program puts ETHSA

into SYSTEM.

eth-tr-subagent-process

identifies the Ethernet Subagent process. You can specify from one through five

alphanumeric characters, but the first character must be alphabetic.

other-run-option

is any of the TACL RUN command options. Refer to the TACL Reference Manual

for more information about these options. HP recommends using at least the

NOWAIT option so that you can resume TACL operations once the subagent is

started.
