1068.0. "HUBwatch API ?" by F104::HERNAN (Peter Hernan Western RNC) Fri Jun 03 1994 13:04


  Does HUBwatch have an API through which an application can determine 
status information of the hub and its componants?

No.  What is the problem you're trying to solve?

1068.2API to controll ports on DECserver?TAVIS::GIVONRonen GivonWed Sep 07 1994 04:0816
    
    
    	 Coming late upon this note, I have a need to perform some basic tasks 
         on ports of a DECserver90M.
    
    	 Specifically, I need to log of some ports. I would have also like to 
         know their status in advance.
    
    	 On VMS I used to do it with the unsupported TSM callable interface. 
         What is available for me on an OSF/1 in a system where there is a 
         DECagent, DECserver (On DEChub90) and HUBwatch?
    
    	 Thanks

1068.3DECservers are a problem.SLINK::HOODI'd rather be at the PenobscotWed Sep 07 1994 11:328
You need to use TSM to do the kinds of things you want to do with
your DECservers.  Most of the DECserver management is not available
through SNMP.

For more info, see TOOK::TERMINAL_SERVERS

1068.4LogPort using SNMP?TAVIS::GIVONRonen GivonThu Sep 08 1994 06:577
    
    1	I understand that TSM is not available on OSF/1.
            
    2	Can I "log port" on a DECserver90M using SNMP?

    1.	Check POLYCENTER DECnet Manager on Netview for OSF/1 SPD. I think
    	TSM functionallity is in there.
    
    2.  Yes,  I tried this with Hubwatch for Windows Version 2.0. From the 
    	community table I chose a DECserver 90M.  This brings up the
    	picture of the module.  Double clicked on a port which pops up
    	another window specific to that port.  Chose Reset port push button
    	This brought up a warning popup indicating that this would
    	disconnect all sessions to the port and log the port out if I
    	continued. Clicked on Ok and after a short delay (hour glass
    	displayed) logged out the port.

1068.6log vs logSLINK::HOODI'd rather be at the PenobscotThu Sep 08 1994 11:2610
Do you mean log (as in login/logout) or log (as in keep a record of activity)?

If it's the logout, then yes HUBwatch will do that (for DS90M/90TL/900TM).

If it's the record, then no, you cannot do that.  Well, you could continuously
poll the server for different MIB counters, but you will get no LAT info thru
SNMP.

1068.7Logout port from a detached C programTAVIS::GIVONRonen GivonSun Sep 11 1994 05:198
    
    I need to logout ports on a T.S. The functionality as 6.5 describes.
    
    Nevertheless, I need to perform it from a detached C program running on an
    OSF system with TCP/IP.
