Using the TRMMIM Hub View

The community name you use to start the module must have at least Read access; for full management functionality, you should use a community name that provides Read/Write or Superuser access. For more information on community names, consult the appropriate Installing and Using SPECTRUM for... guide, and/or the Community Names chapter in the SPMA Tools Guide.

NOTES

The spmarun script invoked first in the above command temporarily sets the environment variables SPMA needs to operate; be sure to use this command any time you launch an application from the command line. This script is automatically invoked when you launch an application from the icon menu or from within the Hub View.

If you wish to configure your Token Ring hub in any way, be sure to use a community name with at least Read/Write access. If you only wish to view current settings, a community name with Read access will be sufficient.

If there is a hostname mapped to your TRMMIM’s IP address, you can use <hostname> in place of <IP address> to launch this application. Please note, however, that the hostname is not the same as the device name which can be assigned via Local Management and/or SPMA; you cannot use the device name in place of the IP address.

Navigating Through the Hub View

Within the Hub View (Figure 2-1), you can click mouse buttons in different areas of the window to access various menus and initiate certain management tasks.
