Re: Notifications and sending SNMP traps from XI

Sorry to be "thick" - I am a serious newby to all this....but is there an easy way to view a file to get this information? I have changed my check interval to 10 min, Retry Interval to 1 min and Max Check Attempts to 1. In my testing, this has shown on a trap receiver to only send out 2 &q...

Re: Using the "Quick Action" connect to "Host_Name"

So the doc was awesome and solved about 1/2 of my issue :) Perhaps this is a dumb question but since that has never stopped me in the past...no need to change now. This server was deployed in a pretty challenging network architecture. There is a northbound interface (eth1) that connects to the "...
