Management tab
This tab contains a number of parameters that are relevant to managing an IAF adapter, and is identical to that of a correlator.
The available parameters are:
Display name – This is the name to associate with this adapter in the Navigation Pane. The name can be changed at any time, even if the adapter has already been started.
WARN state timeout (s) – This is the number of seconds to wait before moving the component into the
WARN state if it is not changing state (stopping/starting/ restarting) as required. This setting can be changed at any time.
FAIL state timeout (s) – This is the number of seconds to wait after entering the
WARN state before moving into the
FAIL state, if the component has still failed to change state as expected. This setting can be changed at any time.
Automatic restart enable – Tick to configure EMM to monitor the selected component. If it were to stop unexpectedly, EMM would automatically restart it – after waiting the amount of time required for it to enter the
FAIL state (and subject to the configured limit on the number of restart attempts described below). This setting can be changed at any time.
Component monitoring and auto-restart is carried out from EMM and requires EMM to be running.
Max. automatic restart attempts – This option is only available if
Automatic restart is enabled. It specifies the total number of automatic restarts to perform (or attempt) without user intervention. The count is made from when you last enabled
Automatic restart and committed, or explicitly stopped/started/ restarted the adapter. This setting can be changed at any time.
Alternative start-up directory – By default all components are started from the current working directory of the Sentinel Agent running on the host in question (see in
Working directory). If you wish, you can provide an alternative startup folder here. Note that this option is only functional if the Sentinel Agent running on the host in question is version 1.1.1 or greater.
Click the Commit Changes button when you are finished customizing the new IAF adapter. This applies the outstanding changes.
The Default button resets all outstanding parameter values to their defaults, while the Revert button reverts the outstanding parameter values to their current committed values.
