Re: Trouble with IECC

To make IECC view and monitor database servers spread across multiple subnets by using the the "agentaddr" and "VROKER_ADM" While setting the OSAGENT_ADDR environment variable to point to the ip-address of host mechine running in a subnet will work for one, in order to observe server in more than one subnet you will need to maintain a file "agentaddr" at the location pointed by "VBROKER_ADM" , containing a list of IP-address of all machines running osagent across the network. ----- Original Message ----- From: Doug McAllister <doug.mcallister@fmr.com> To: <informix-list@iiug.org> Sent: Thursday, August 26, 1999 12:51 PM Subject: Re: Trouble with IECC > You cannot connect to hosts on multiple sub-nets at the same time.
