Administering Managed Nodes Depending on
subagent id Values
opcragt in OVO/UNIX can accept subagent id values as numbers or
names. The behavior is dependent upon communication type being used:
HTTPS or DCE.
HTTPS Communication Type
When the subagent id argument is a name, the selected node is
administrated directly. When the subagent id is number, a mapping
to subagent id name must exist in the subagt_aliases file.
DCE Communication Type
When the subagent id is a number, status or start/stop
command is called directly. When the subagent id is a name, then
mapping from name to number must exist in the subagt_aliases
file.
By default three mappings are defined in subagent_aliases file:
(0 -> AGENT)
(1 -> EA)
(12 -> CODA)
The location of the subagt_aliases file is:
/etc/opt/OV/share/conf/OpC/mgmt_sv/subagt_aliases
When mapping between number and name is required but does not exist,
the following error message is displayed:
DCE Nodes
Can't find information for subagent id '< sugagent_id >'
searching in
/etc/opt/OV/share/conf/OpC/mgmt_sv/subagt_aliases.
(OpC40-340)
If desired, a new mapping can be added by manually editing the
subagent_aliases file.
HTTPS Nodes
Subagent XXX:
Subagent not registered.
