Product Manager Overview
— Active Addresses—Displays the Configure-Addresses - “Active” dialog
box. Use this dialog box to configure a name, blocked or unblocked state, and
prohibited and allowed connection attributes for a port.
— Stored Addresses—Displays the Address Configuration Library. Use this
dialog box to activate, modify, delete, and modify existing address
configurations created through the Active Addresses dialog box.
•
SNMP Agent— Choose this option to display the Configure SNMP dialog box.
Use this dialog box to configure network addresses and community names for up
to six SNMP trap recipients. Also authorize write permissions to enable SNMP
management stations to modify writable MIB variables. In addition, you can
enable authorization traps to be sent to management stations when unauthorized
stations request access to director SNMP data.
•
Management Server—Choose this option to display either the Configure Open
Systems Management Server or Configure FICON Management Server
dialog box, depending on which feature (if any) is enabled for the director. Use
this to configure a FICON or open systems inband management program to
function with the director. To use these procedures, you must have enabled either
the FICON Management Server or Open Systems Management Server
through the Configure Feature Key dialog box.
•
Features—Displays the Configure Feature Key dialog box. Use this dialog box
to enter a feature key to enable optional features that you have purchased for the
director.
•
Date/Time—Choose this option to display the Configure Date and Time dialog
box. Use this option to set the current date and time in the director. When the
Periodic Date/Time Synchronization check box is checked in the dialog box, the
Date and Time fields are grayed out (disabled), and the HAFM server date and
time periodically synchronizes the director date and time. If the Periodic
Date/Time Synchronization check box is not checked, you can set the date and
time in the dialog box fields manually.
•
Threshold Alerts—Choose this option to configure threshold alerts for ports. A
threshold alert notifies users when the transmit (Tx) or receive (Rx) throughput
reaches specified values for specific director ports or port types (E_Ports or
F_Ports). Using this option, you can configure:
— A name for the alert.
— A threshold type for the alert (Rx, Tx, or either).
— Active or inactive state of the alert.
