Note: Notes emphasize important information related to the main

topic.

Overview 1

Computer Associates (CA) allowing network administrators to graphically view their networks and the nodes attached to the network. This allows the network administrator to assess the health of these devices, as well as take corrective action if necessary.

In order for Quantum Libraries to display as actual library icons in the network management software, you must install the SNMP Integration Kit.

The SNMP Integration with Unicenter TND will:

• Install the Quantum Library MIB file

• Install the Quantum Library icon files

• Create an Quantum Library class

• Update the message map and action tables

SNMP Integration Guide 1

Unicenter TND is a network management tool

Chapter 1 Unicenter TND on Windows NT/2000 System Requirements on Windows NT/2000

SNMP integration with Unicenter TND consists of the following tasks:

• Installing the SNMP Integration Software

• Setting Up Unicenter TND

• Following Up: Testing the Library Icon

System Requirements on Windows NT/2000 1

The SNMP integration with Unicenter TND on NT/2000 requires the following hardware and software components to run properly. These include:

• Microsoft Windows 2000 or Windows NT installed and running

• Hard disk drive with at least 10 MB of available space

• CD-ROM drive

• Internet browser: Microsoft Netscape

Communicator version 4.7x

Internet Explorer version 5.0 or 5.5, or

(server or workstation),

• SNMP and SNMP trap services active and running

• Unicenter TNG Framework version 2.1 or higher installed with SNMP traps activated (see Activating SNMP Traps

)

Level of Security 1 In Unicenter TNG Framework 2.1, the level of security required to

integrate the library is the same level of security required to install and

operate Unicenter TND. This is typically the System Administrator (sa)

level. The security entry is case sensitive.

In Unicenter TNG Framework 2.4 or higher, the level of security required to integrate the library is the same level of security required to install and operate Unicenter TND. This is typically the user name and password for logging into the computer network.

Note: Before beginning, verify that SNMP service is running (see

Start/Control Panel/Services).

5 Set preference to Yes for SNMP Trap Server Activated.

6 Exit the Unicenter TND Settings dialog box.

7 Reboot the PC for the changes to take effect.

Pre-Installation Steps 1

Before installing the SNMP integration software, edit the

c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file and add the library node(s):

<IP Address> <Library Name> <Library Name> is derived from the library name and the domain name

specified in the management Web page.

For example, if the library name is BLD5 and the domain is

mycompany.eng, the library name in the /etc/hosts file will be BLD5.mycompany.eng.
