The nscsmuxd.ini file contains parameters that direct the operation of the nscsmux daemon. This daemon is a SNMP agent that acts as the SNMP SMUX peer agent for a NonStop Integrity XC cluster. Daemons that monitor the various subsystems within the cluster all report to a management application (such as the Compaq Insight Manager) through the nscsmux daemon.
The following table shows the parameters in the file, possible values for these parameters, and the effect of different values on the operation of the daemon.
Parameter | Values |
---|---|
agent.list | This parameter lists the SNMP SMUX agents that report to the Insight Manager through the nscsmux agent. The agents listed in this parameter are all UNIX daemons, and are subordinate to the nscsmux agent, which is itself implemented as the nscsmuxd daemon. |
catalog | This parameter gives the tab in the Configuration Manager display under which the file is located. Since this daemon is a Simple Network Managment Protocol (SNMP) daemon, the value of this parameter should be SNMP Agents. |
key | This parameter gives the Interprocess Communications (IPC) ID for this daemon. Under normal conditions, you should not change the value of this parameter. |
mib.list | This parameter lists the Management Information Base (MIB) files used by the SMUX agents subordinate to the nscsmux agent. Each MIB is a hierarchically ordered database of configuration and status information for a discrete component or subsystem maintained by an agent. |
snmpIndex | This parameter specifies the unique ID used by this daemon for system management within the NonStop Integrity XC cluster. Under normal conditions, you should not change the value of this parameter. |
