WARM | COLD Custom Configuration Parameters for the RUN
Command
The startup parameters COLD and WARM allow you to customize how the SNMP
agent functions. For details about COLD and WARM parameters see page 2-9.
If you start the SNMP agent using the WARM startup parameter, a default operations
environment (from RUN command parameters) is automatically configured.
If you start the SNMP agent using the COLD startup parameter, you must explicitly
configure all aspects of the operations environment.
The SNMPCTL File and the WARM Startup Parameter
When you start the SNMP agent using the WARM startup parameter (the default) and
no SNMPCTL file exists in the run subvolume (the first time you start an SNMP agent
process), the SNMP agent creates an SNMPCTL file and fills it with default RUN
command configuration values. You can then modify the SNMP file using RUN
command parameters, SCF, PARAM statements, or SNMP requests.
WARM is the default value.
TCPIP^PROCESS^NAME
[/node.]$tcpip-process
The default TCP/IP process to
be used when
request/response connections
and trap destinations are
defined for the SNMP
agent.
For Parallel Library TCP/IP,
this is the TCPSAM process.
See the TCP/IP (Parallel
Library) Configuration and
Management Manual.
For NonStop TCP/IPv6, this is
the TCP6SAM process. See
the TCP/IPV6 Configuration
and Management Manual.
$ZTC0 on the local node.
TRACE Enables tracing of the backup
agent process.
No parameter value is
assigned, and no backup
process tracing is enabled.
TRAPPORT
trap-port-number
The trap port number to send
traps to manager.
162, the SNMP standard
port for sending traps.
