Perform additional MIB monitor configuration by using the following command-line options. This includes the HA Cluster Monitor, HA Network Interface Monitor, and HA System Resource Monitor.

Specify one or more of the below listed options in the MONITOR statement of the dictionary file for each monitor. For example, within the file: /etc/opt/resmon/dictionary/mibmond.dict.

-c community

The community string to use with the SNMP requests. The string public is used by default.

-d

Turn on internal daemon debugging messages to get a trace. This allows additional information to be logged to the /var/opt/resmon/log/mibmond.log file.

CAUTION: The /var/opt/resmon/log/mibmond.log file grows without bound. Only use the -d option if directed to do so by your HP Support Personnel.

-h hostname

Perform SNMP queries against specified hostname. By default the local system is queried to get the contents of the MIB.

-l

Write a syslog message every time SNMP is queried for a monitored resource value

-p portnumber

Perform SNMP queries against specified port number. This option is useful when querying proxy SNMP agents. By default SNMP queries are directed against the SNMP port (161)

-r retries

Attempt to retransmit SNMP requests retries number of times before considering the host unreachable. The default is to retransmit 1 time.

-t timeout

Wait timeout number of seconds before retransmitting SNMP requests. By default, 5 seconds will expire between retransmissions.
