Configuring NerveCenter to Use the New MIB

After you have compiled the NerveCenter MIB, you must reload it. From the Administrator, you can specify the name and location if you created a new MIB file and then load the file.

---

   You must be a member of NerveCenter Admins on Windows or a member of ncadmins on UNIX.

---

 
  To load the new MIB:

1. From the Administrator, connect to the server.
2. Select the Server tab.

   NerveCenter displays the Server tab.

   

3. If the name of the MIB has changed, type the name of the new NerveCenter MIB in the Name field.
4. If the location of the MIB has changed, type the full path of the new MIB in the Directory field.
5. Check the Reload check box.
6. Select Save.

   NerveCenter displays a message that tells you the data was saved successfully. Clients that are connected to this server automatically receive the updated MIB information and display a message to users.

   ---

      Any clients that are currently connected to this server and have the Share MIB check box selected are updated to use the new MIB, even if they were sharing a MIB from another server.

   ---

7. If you want other NerveCenter Servers to use this MIB, repeat this procedure for each NerveCenter Server.

You have specified and loaded the new MIB. If your network management platform uses the NerveCenter MIB, you'll need to update that information in your network management platform. See the documentation for your network management platform for details.

If you added new definitions, you may want to create new property groups that contain properties for the new MIB base objects. See Designing and Managing Behavior Models in the NerveCenter documentation.
