The SNMPCONTROL command allows you to control the HP SNMP/XL subsystem.
This command allows you to start and stop the subsystem manually,
enable the internal trace facility, gather version information, obtain
the current status of the subsystem, enter the help facility, dump the
internal data structures to a flat-ascii file, and update the subsystem
configuration. To facilitate access to the SNMPCONTROL command, the SNMPUDC.NET.SYS must be enabled for those users who require access. This
is accomplished by using the SETCATALOG command as follows: SETCATALOG SNMPUDC.NET.SYS;SYSTEM. Before the initial SETCATALOG you must make sure the TZ variable is properly set for your local time zone
by adding the following set of lines to SNMPUDC.NET.SYS after the setvar opt ups("!cmd"): if (not(bound(TZ))) then
setvar TZ "timezonevariable"
endif |
See Appendix D “Time Zones” for a list of commonly used
time zones and the TZ environment variable strings that correspond
to them. You must also have NM capability to issue the SNMPCONTROL command. The following are the SNMPCONTROL commands: UDC | Action |
|---|
dump | Causes the HP SNMP/XL subsystem to dump
its internal data structures. | help | Provides online help for the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. | start | Activates the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. | status | Reports the status of the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. | stop | Deactivates the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. | trace | Enables/disables the HP SNMP/XL internal tracing. | updateconfig | Provides dynamic update of the HP SNMP/XL configuration
information. | version | Reports internal version levels of the
various HP SNMP/XL modules. |
SNMPCONTROL DUMP | |
The SNMPCONTROL DUMP command causes the HP SNMP/XL subsystem to dump its internal
data structures to a flat-ascii file. SNMPCONTROL DUMP This command results in a SNMPDMxx.NET.SYS dump file to be created and all of the internal
data structures of the HP SNMP/XL subsystem to be dumped to it.
The data structures are dumped by the symbolic formatting feature
of the MPE/iX debugger. MPEXL: snmpcontrol dump
The SNMP/XL subsystem has dumped its internal data structures to SNMPDM01.NET.SYS (SNMPINFO 1704)

SNMPCONTROL HELP | |
The SNMPCONTROL HELP command enters the HP SNMP/XL online help facility. Once
inside the online help facility, you can access help information
on the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. The help facility is identical to the
MPE/iX help subsystem. SNMPCONTROL HELP This command provides an online help facility for the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. Welcome to the HP SNMP/XL HELP Facility |
The HP SNMP/XL Help Facility has the same syntax and usage as the MPE/iX HELP Facility. To receive help on either a SNMPCONTROL command, or one of the other SNMP commands (e.g., SNMPGET, SNMPNEXT), enter the command, or the option for the SNMPCONTROL command. You may also enter an optional help parameter indicating the category of help you wish to review. Help is also available for various HP SNMP/XL errors, warnings, and informational messages that are returned to the user. You can get help on a SNMP/XL error, warning, or informational message by entering the following type of command: |
Other parameters available on most help commands are: |
ALL: Explains everything about the command.
PARMS: Explains parameter(s) for the command.
EXAMPLES: Typical uses of that command.> |
KEYWORDS: COMMAND,SYNTAX,AVAIL
MPEXL: |
SNMPCONTROL START | |
The SNMPCONTROL START command allows you to start the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. SNMPCONTROL START
[;TRACE]
[;TFILESIZE=file_size]
[;TFILE=file_name]
[;OVERRIDE]
[;SYSFAIL] |
- TRACE
This parameter is optional and specifies that you
want to start the subsystem with the internal trace facility enabled.
When this parameter is used, the tracing remains active until the
HP SNMP/XL subsystem is stopped or the trace command is used to
turn off tracing. The tracing information is recorded in a file named
NMTCnnnn.PUB.SYS, where nnnn represents numerically sequential trace files.
This file name is the default and is used unless the TFILE option is specified. The default is no tracing. - TFILE-SIZE=filez_size
This parameter is optional and is ignored unless
the TRACE parameter is specified. It allows you to specify the
number of records in the SNMP/XL trace file as the value of
file_size. The value should be a decimal number specifying
the trace file size in number of 128 word records. The default is 1024. - TFILE=file_name
This parameter is optional and is ignored unless
the TRACE parameter is specified. It allows you to specify the
name of the trace file, instead of using the default trace file
name as the value of file_name. File_name must be a string of characters that define a valid
MPE file name. - OVERRIDE
This parameter is optional and allows you to override HP
SNMP/XL version inconsistencies which would normally prevent successful
activation of the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. Use of this parameter requires PM
and DI capabilities in addition to the NM capability required to
issue the SNMPCONTROL command. | | | |  | CAUTION: The OVERRIDE parameter is intended for use by Hewlett-Packard support
engineers. Hewlett-Packard is not responsible for damages resulting
from unauthorized use. | | | | |
- SYSFAIL
This parameter is optional and allows you to produce
a system halt if an irrecoverable internal error occurs within the
SNMP/XL subsystem. The default is to trap and handle all errors but you
are given the option to fail the system by specifying this parameter.
This command is used to activate the HP SNMP/XL subsystem.
It is only needed if you stop the subsystem and wish to restart
it, or if the subsystem terminated abnormally. MPEXL: snmpcontrol start;trace
The HP SNMP/XL subsystem was successfully started. (SNMPINFO 1705)
MPEXL: |
SNMPCONTROL STOP | |
The SNMPCONTROL STOP command allows you to shut down the SNMP/XL subsystem.
Use of this command gracefully terminates the SNMP/XL subsystem. SNMPCONTROL STOP This command gracefully terminates the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. MPEXL: snmpcontrol stop
The stop request has been successfully sent to the SNMP/XL stack. (SNMPINFO 1702)
MPEXL: |
SNMPCONTROL TRACE | |
The SNMPCONTROL TRACE command allows you to enable or disable the internal
trace facility of the SNMP/XL subsystem. SNMPCONTROL TRACE
[;ON|OFF]
[;TFILE=file_name]
[TFILESIZE=file_size] |
- ON/OFF
This parameter is optional. If it is not present,
the current state of the internal trace is toggled. For example,
if tracing is enabled, the internal trace is disabled if the parameter
is not present. The ON parameter enables the internal trace facility. If tracing
is currently active, the current trace file is closed. The OFF parameter disables the internal trace facility. If
tracing is currently not active, then the command is ignored. - TFILE=file_name
This parameter is optional and is ignored unless
the TRACE parameter is specified. It allows you to specify the
name of the trace file instead of using the default trace file name
as the value of file_name. File_name must be a string of characters that define a valid
MPE file name. - TFILE-SIZE=file_size
This parameter is optional and is ignored unless
the TRACE parameter is specified. It allows you to specify the
number of records in the SNMP/XL trace file as the value of
file_size. The value should be a decimal number specifying
the trace file size in number of 128 word records. The default is 1024.
This command controls the HP SNMP/XL internal trace facility.
When tracing is enabled the default trace file, created by the Node Management
Subsystem, is named NMTCnnnn.PUB.SYS, where nnnn reflects numerically sequential trace files. If
the TFILE parameter is specified, then the file_name specified is the name of the trace file. One of the examples below (SNMPINFO 1724) starts the internal trace facility, specifying
the number of trace records at 2048. MPEXL: snmpcontrol trace;on; TFILESIZE=2048
The SNMP/XL subsystem trace facility has been successfully activated on trace file. (SNMPINFO 1724)
Tracing stopped on file. (SNMPINFO 1726)
MPEXL: |
SNMPCONTROL UPDATECONFIG | |
The SNMPCONTROL UPDATECONFIG command allows you to dynamically update the configuration
information. SNMPCONTROL UPDATECONFIG This command provides the ability to update the SNMP configuration information
without shutting down the HP SNMP/XL subsystem. The configuration
information that is updated is contained in the SNMPCONF.NET.SYS file. If an error is detected, the update does not take effect and
the former configuration is retained. Before any configuration information is updated, the format
of the configuration file is validated. MPEXL: snmpcontrol updateconfig
The SNMP/XL subsystem has successfully updated its configuration information. (SNMPINFO 1709)
MPEXL: |
SNMPCONTROL VERSION | |
The SNMPCONTROL VERSION command allows you to obtain the version information
for the SNMP/XL subsystem. SNMPCONTROL VERSION This command reports the version level of the HP SNMP/XL subsystem.
Each module comprising the HP SNMP/XL subsystem is reported. You
are informed if module versions do not match or modules are missing. MPEXL: snmpcontrol version
