Managing Your System
System administration and control
The server has two server-management tools that you can use to administer
and control the server. These tools are ManageX Event Manager and the
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent.
SNMP and ManageX
The SNMP agent is software that links the hardware to ManageX Event
Manager. Each significant hardware event generates an interrupt that is
detected by the SNMP agent and then routed to ManageX. The SNMP agent
is provided on the Server Companion CD (SCCD) and must be installed on
the server before system administration and control will function properly.
ManageX lets the system administrator manage multiple systems on a
Windows NT, Windows 2000, or Novell Netware network from a single
window, and implement commands and policies across the network with a
single action. With this tool, you can automate system management tasks,
which can be triggered by specific events or at specified thresholds.
You can find additional information about the SNMP agent and ManageX
Event Manager under
Documentation
on the Server Companion CD which
came with the server.
SNMP and ManageX Installation
These instructions describe the installation of the system management
solution for the Gateway
®
930 Series for both the Windows
®
NT 4.0 and the
Windows
®
2000 environments.
For each computer running Windows NT you must:
■
Install SNMP service (“To install SNMP service in Windows NT:” on
page 97)
■
Install WMI (“To install WMI in Windows NT:” on page 98)
■
Install the SNMP Driver (“To install the SNMP Driver in Windows NT:”
on page 98)
Important If you are using the Windows 2000 operating system, you
must install SNMP Service before you install ManageX and
the SNMP agent. SNMP Service is installed through
Windows 2000.
