Setting server properties
To set properties for the server:
1. Right-click the nTier VTL appliance object and select
Properties
.
2. On the
Activity Database Maintenance
tab, indicate how often FalconStor VTL
activity data should be purged.
The Activity Log is a database that tracks all system activity, including all data
read, data written, number of read commands, write commands, number of
errors, etc. This information is used to generate information for FalconStor VTL
reports.
3. On the
SNMP Maintenance
tab, enable FalconStor VTL to send traps to your
SNMP manager.
Refer to
’Configuring FalconStor VTL to send SNMP traps’
for more information.
4. On the
Auto Save
tab, enter information to replicate your FalconStor VTL
configuration to another server.
This protects your configuration if the nTier VTL appliance experiences
problems. Refer to
’Automatically save the configuration’
for more information.
5. On the
Storage Monitoring
tab, enter the maximum amount of storage that can
be used by FalconStor VTL before you should be alerted.
When the utilization percentage is reached, a warning message will be sent to
the Event Log.
Configuring FalconStor VTL to send SNMP traps
FalconStor VTL provides Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support to
integrate FalconStor VTL management into an existing enterprise management
solution, such as HP OpenView, CA Unicenter, IBM Tivoli NetView, or BMC Patrol.
By default, event log messages will
not
be sent, but you may want to configure
FalconStor VTL to send certain types of messages. To do this:
1. In the Console, right-click the nTier VTL appliance object and select
Properties
.
2. Select the
SNMP Maintenance
tab.
3. Indicate the information that should be included in traps sent to your SNMP
manager.
SysLocation
- Enter the location that should be included in traps.
SysContact
- Enter any contact information that should be included in traps. This
could be a name or an email address.
4. Specify the type of message that should be sent.
