Add the MPLS Manager to the Failover Manager

Use the following steps to configure monitoring for MPLS Manager on the Failover Manager:

1. From the installation directory of Failover Manager (BASEDIR/smarts/bin), open the failover.conf file. Type:

                  ./sm_edit /conf/failover/failover.conf
               

2. Add entries for MPLS Topology, Monitoring, and Analysis servers in the ServerSection of the failover.conf file.

   Example:

   ServerSection
   {    
      Server
       {
     DetachInterval = 300;
     Name           = "INCHARGE-MPLS-TOPOLOGY";
            ServerType     = "MPLS";
           LocationA
           {
               HostName   = "itops-tco-100.lss.emc.com";
               PortNumber = 1679;
               Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/MPLS/smarts";
      }
           LocationB
           {
               HostName   = "itops-tco-101.lss.emc.com";
               PortNumber = 1679;
               Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/MPLS/smarts";
      }
       }
       Server
       {
     DetachInterval = 300;
     Name           = "INCHARGE-MPLS-MONITORING";
           ServerType     = "MPLS";
           LocationA
           {
               HostName   = "itops-tco-100.lss.emc.com";
               PortNumber = 1679;
               Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/MPLS/smarts";
      }
           LocationB
           {
               HostName   = "itops-tco-101.lss.emc.com";
               PortNumber = 1679;
               Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/MPLS/smarts";
      }
       }
       Server
       {
     DetachInterval = 300;
     Name           = "INCHARGE-MPLS-ANALYSIS";
           ServerType     = "MPLS";
           LocationA
           {
               HostName   = "itops-tco-100.lss.emc.com";
               PortNumber = 1681;
               Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/MPLS/smarts";
      }
           LocationB
           {
               HostName   = "itops-tco-101.lss.emc.com";
               PortNumber = 1681;
               Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/MPLS/smarts";
      }
         }
   }
   

3. Save the failover.conf file and exit.

   Note:

   If you configure MPLS Manager for failover while the Failover Manager is already running, use the ic-failover-server script reload option to reload the failover.conf file and use the Reconfigure button in the Domain Manager Administration Console to reconfigure the Failover Manager.
