Troubleshooting the Subagent
timer runs down when the refresh interval, specified in minutes, has elapsed since
the previous table access. Valid values range from 0 through 32000. A value of
zero or less causes the subagent to update values every time it receives a request.
If you omit the -r startup parameter, the six refresh timers are set to 10 minutes.
After startup, you can use two MIB objects to control MIB value updates. To
change the refresh interval, set tdmNwSaRefreshTimer to a new interval. To cause
values to be updated on demand, set tdmNwSaRefreshNow to
forceDynamicRefresh
.
You can retrieve the value of tdmNwInfoResetTime to determine the time at which
the statistical counters for an IPXPROTO process were last reset to zero; resetting
counters is done by using the SCF STATS PROCESS command with the RESET
option. You can retrieve the value of tdmNwInfoSampleTime to determine the time
at which the statistics were last sampled by the subagent.
To stop the subagent process, provide its name in the TACL STOP command:
STOP $ZISA
Troubleshooting the Subagent
This subsection contains several suggestions for handling problems you might
encounter while using the IPX/SPX Subagent.
EMS Event Messages
Whenever the subagent behaves unexpectedly or an error condition arises, be sure to
check for EMS events that have been generated by the subagent. Described in
EMS
Support on page 13-45, event messages provide information to help you diagnose and
fix problems.
Startup Problems
If the syntax of the RUN command is incorrect, the subagent displays a message, then
stops. The message has the following form:
problem with command line parameter #parameter-number ('parameter-value'):
