To Create a Server Component as a Monitored Object

You might want to monitor the Topology manager, Trap handler, Configuration manager, and Event manager to determine their status. The Configuration manager and the Trap handler are configured so that you do not need to perform any maintenance procedures. In addition, the default configurations of both the Topology manager and the Event manager work for most user environments. However, you can modify the default configurations for specialized environments.

1. In the main console window, choose Create Object from the Edit menu.

   The Create Object window is displayed. By default, the tab is set to Node. For more information, see To Create a Node.

2. Choose Sun Management Center Agent - Host from the Monitor Via menu.

3. Type the name of the server component in the Node Label field.

4. (Optional) Type a description of the server component.

5. Type the name of the Sun Management Center server in the Hostname field.

6. Type the port number for the server component in the Port field.

   Sun Management Center software uses the following default port values:

   • Agent component : port 161

   • Server trap handler: port 162

   • Server event manager: port 163

   • Server topology manager: port 164

   • Server configuration manager: port 165

   ---

   Note –

   The server component uses port 2099 by default. However, you cannot change the server component port number here.

7. Complete this procedure with one of the following actions:

   • Click OK to create the server component object and close this window.

   • Click the Apply button to create the server component object without closing this window.
