• To monitor a directory on a Linux or UNIX host, first enable Telnet or SSH for the host (see the Linux
configuration guide), and configure the Telnet or SSH username and password on both the host and
the IMC platform. The Telnet or SSH user must have the administrator privilege.
To add a directory monitor:
1. Click the Resource tab.
2. Enter the Add Application page in one of the following ways:
{
Select Application Manager > Add Application from the navigation tree.
The page displays all application types that can be monitored by APM.
{
Select Application Manager > Application Monitor from the navigation tree, and click Add on
the application monitor list page.
3. Click Directory of the File/Directory Monitor class.
The page for adding a directory monitor appears.
4. Configure the following parameters for the application monitor:
{
IP Address—Enter the IP address of the host where the directory to be monitored resides. If the
host is already added to the IMC platform, you can also click Select and select the host from the
Select Devices window. For information about selecting a host, see " 2 Quick start ." APM
automatically checks the specified IP address and associates the application monitor with the
host managed in the IMC platform.
{
Name—Enter a unique application monitor name. H3C recommends using Application
name_host IP address for naming the application monitor.
{
Description—Enter a description for the application monitor.
{
Polling Interval (min)—Select a polling interval for the application monitor. Available options
include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, and 30. The default polling interval is 5 minutes. A shorter polling
interval provides more accurate real-time data, but consumes more system resources.
{
Monitor Type—Select the protocol (SSH, Telnet, or WMI) through which APM monitors the file
application, and then click the
Configure link (not available for WMI) to configure related
parameters.
