Hello Folks,
I have a requirement from Netview that needs to be met ASAP :
I need to send an SNMP command (Mib 2 or Proprietary or private MIB) like
RESET, or other kind of command that will really do something important on
the target machine. And I need to do so from a contextual menu on the
object itself, like a router, a RS/6000, or any machine using SNMP. Here is
some background infos :
We have many machines which have their own MIBs (Proprietary or private
MIB), these MIBs have been developped in-house and have commands that could
be sent to the machines from a management station based on a PDP 11 and a
propietary OS running on this PDP 11. We nned to replace this PDP 11 by
Netview For AIX and we need, in case the target presents a problem or an
alert detected by the Netview daemons to take a corrective and sometimes a
radical action which will RESET or swich off the the machine. And these
actions need to be taken directly by the Help Desk people from the Netview
GUI, and with a point and click action.
Please if anyone has done this or thought about it before let me know.
Some people told me that I need to use other OEM products like : AdventNet
to build my own applet in Java.
Cordialement - Best Regards
