Modify <ESM_home>/conf/NmsProcessesBE.conf to implement SNMP timeout and retry values
Step 1: Go to the ESM configuraton directory:
cd /opt/ciena/ESM61200/conf
Step 2: Make backup copy of the NmsProcessesBE.conf file:
cp -p NmsProcessesBE.conf NmsProcessesBE.conf.orig
Step 3: Open NmsProcessesBE.conf for editing
vi NmsProcessesBE.conf
Find following line:
PROCESS com.adventnet.nms.poll.Collector
ARGS MAX_OIDS_IN_ONE_POLL 15 AUTHORIZATION true DATA_COLLECTION_QUERY_INTERVAL 120000 PASS_THRO_ALL_POLLING_OBJECTS true DATA_COLLECTION_SNMP_RETRIES 2 DATA_COLLECTION_SNMP_TIMEOUT 10 DATA_COLLECTION_STARTUP_DELAY 300 STATUS_POLL_TXN_TIMEOUT 60000
Add timeout & retry values to end of line. In this example we will set timeout of 10 seconds with one retry.
STATUS_POLL_SNMP_TIMEOUT 10 STATUS_POLL_SNMP_RETRIES 1
Edited line should look like this :
PROCESS com.adventnet.nms.poll.Collector
ARGS MAX_OIDS_IN_ONE_POLL 15 AUTHORIZATION true DATA_COLLECTION_QUERY_INTERVAL 120000 PASS_THRO_ALL_POLLING_OBJECTS true DATA_COLLECTION_SNMP_RETRIES 2 DATA_COLLECTION_SNMP_TIMEOUT 10 DATA_COLLECTION_STARTUP_DELAY 300 STATUS_POLL_TXN_TIMEOUT 60000 STATUS_POLL_SNMP_TIMEOUT 10 STATUS_POLL_SNMP_RETRIES 1
Step 4: Save file and close
Step 5: Halt / Restart ESM
Halt:
cd <ESM_home>/bin/
./Shutdown username password
Restart:
cd <ESM_home>/bin/
nohup ./startnms.sh &
Tail nohup.out file to observe startup:
tail -100f nohup.out
