Importing the New Model

The new alarm suppression model is not included in the default database that is installed with NerveCenter v3.6. You must import the model before you can use it. The model includes all of the objects you need, including the alarms, polls, masks, Perl subroutines, and so on.

---

Caution    Older versions of the imported objects will be overwritten (for example, IcmpPoll).

---

 
  To import the new model:

1. Start the Client and connect to the NerveCenter Server.
2. From the Server menu, select Import Objects and Nodes.
3. Select Browse.
4. Double-click the node_status directory.
5. Select nodestatus_dwnstrm.mod and then Open.
6. Select OK.

A message is displayed when the file has been imported. The following alarms are listed in the alarm list:

• DwnStrmIcmpStatus
• DwnStrmIcmpStatus_LogToDB
• DwnStrmSnmpStatus
• DwnStrmSnmpStatus_LogToDB
