Web ViewPoint Enterprise Configuration Parameters
This screen allows you to edit and configure parameters. It is simple, easy to use and dynamic. You can now configure parameters on the fly with one touch filter for dynamic and static parameters. Parameter table list is also color graded to differentiate between dynamic and static parameters.
Dynamic parameters:
Parameters that can be edited while the product is running. Respective rows are white color graded.
Static Parameters:
Parameters that require the product to be stopped before editing. Respective rows are grey color graded.
There are 40 Params configured when you install and setup Web ViewPoint Enterprise. They are as follows:
1. ACTION-COLLECTOR
Name of the EMS collector to which alerts sent to Enterprise Manager via JSON are logged.
Default: $0
2. ANALYZER-COLLECTION-TIME
Time at which the collection should run by Event & Storage Analyzer modules. The data collection for both Storage and Event Analyzer modules takes place once every day.
Valid Range: 00:00 to 23:59
Default: 00:05
The changed settings do not come into effect until after the next run of the collector. In other words, the WVP E’s SA/EA modules reads the configuration file after it has finished collecting for that day and it only runs once every day. So, if the user changes the run time the following are possible scenarios:
| Collector run scenarios | |||
| Original Run time | New Run time | Has run today? |
Effect on Collection
|
| 1:00 pm | 8:00 pm (later than the original schedule) |
No (i.e., current time is prior to 1pm)
|
Collector will run at 1:00 pm today and will run at 8:00 pm from the next day onward. |
| 1:00 pm | 8:00 pm (later than the original schedule) |
Yes
|
Collector will run at 1:00 pm the next day ,read the new settings and run at 8:00 pm from the next day onward. Note that it will not run again today. |
| 1:00 pm |
10:00 am (before the original schedule)
|
No | Collector will run at 1:00 pm today and will run at 10:00 am from the next day onward. |
| 1:00 pm | 10:00 am (before the original schedule) | Yes | Collector will run at 1:00 pm today, read the new settings and run at 10:00 am from the next day onward. |
