Setting Up NetScout Manager Plus for FrameSaver Devices

Installing the User-Defined History Files

Once the user-defined history files have been created, the files need to be installed. History files are installed from the command-line prompt in NetScout Manager Plus. Should the FrameSaver unit be reset, these files will need to be reinstalled. The command used to install a new user history table is located in $NSHOME/bin.

CAUTION:

Do not use user_history_table_1 or 2. UserHistory1 and UserHistory2 are the default user history files used to keep FLEX and SLV data for reports. Editing either of these files will destroy FLEX and SLV reporting capability.

"Procedure

1.Type dvuhist -fagentname user_ history_ table_ number config

number_of_buckets interval download_file.udh to load user-defined history files for the frame relay link.

Example:

dvuhist -f Dallas51 3 config 30 60 Dallas51k.udh

The interval must be entered in seconds.

2.Type dvuhist -fªagentname DLCI_ numberº user_ history_ table_ number config number_of_buckets interval download_ file.udh to load user-defined history files for a specific DLCI.

Example:

dvuhist -f ªDallas51 301º 3 config 30 60 Dallas301.udh

The same user history table number can be used for both the link and DLCI. For these examples, user history table number 3 will appear as UserHistory3 on the History List.

See Step 5 in Monitoring a DLCI's History Data to verify that the user-defined history files have been loaded.
