If you want the dynamic model enhancements and the previously discovered topology to be restored in the Manager, then place your dynamic model in the appropriate directory. The directory is based on your use of the --dynamic option when you invoke sm_server.

Including the --dynamic option on the command line when you start up a Manager, loads all of the .ldm files in the following directories:

  • BASEDIR/smarts/model

  • BASEDIR/smarts/model / <config>

    The <config> refers to the configuration directory that is specified on the command line when the Domain Manager is started.

    If you start a Manager without the --dynamicoption, then only the following .ldm files will be loaded:

  • BASEDIR/smarts/local/model /<config>

    The <config> refers to the configuration directory that is specified on the command line when the Domain Manager is started.

    If you want to discard the dynamic model enhancements, including any topology changes that were discovered for the dynamic model enhancements, then invoke the sm_server command with the --ignore-restore-errors option.
