Polling the new attributes

The expressions defined in an event are not evaluated and polled unless there is a subscription to that event. The previous edit of the dxa-net-rm-conn-perf.conf file added a subscription to the TS_HighOverrunRate event from the Global Manager. The Global Manager must be started for the subscription to take effect and for polling of the new variables to commence.

Note:

In this section, BASEDIR refers to the directory for the Service Assurance Manager.

To start polling the new attributes:

1. Type the following command to start the Global Manager:

   t
                     # 
                  
                  BASEDIR
                  /smarts/bin/sm_server -n TEST_SA -c ics --broker=localhost:426 --outputs
   

2. In the Global Console, attach to the TEST_SA Global Manager.

   Once polling has started, the values of TS_locIfOverrun, TS_locIfInOverrunRate, TS_OverrunErrorRate, and TS_OverrunErrorPct update and will appear similar to Attributes tab with the new attributes after polling.
