Once the previously described switching mechanism exists, your application can access the
virtual IP address and open a connection. Since the virtual IP address is used, the application
would automatically be connected with the active HPI daemon. If the application detects that
the connection to the HPI daemon gets lost, it would reconnect to the same virtual IP address
again and this time the application would automatically be connected to the newly started up,
previously deactivated HPI daemon. Since the HPI resource IDs were preserved in a file, the
application can continue with the same resource IDs. Apart from resource IDs, however, no
other data is replicated and therefore preserved.

Installing and Configuring an SNMP Agent

The SNMP agent is intended to run on the ATCA-MF106/SAM1411 and is bundled with the
ATCA-MF106/SAM1411 Basic Blase Services (BBS) software. This means that under normal
conditions there is no need to install the SNMP software manually. If for some reason you need
to manually install an SNMP agent on an ATCA-MF106/SAM1411, follow the installation
instructions given below.

You may want to change the default configuration of an SNMP agent. All necessary steps are
described below as well.

For more information on using SNMP agent, refer to HPI-B Subagent User Guide.
