Application Server Health Monitoring

Health monitoring in iControl is accomplished in two ways:

• Third party SNMP managers can poll an Application Server directly via its Net-SNMP agent.

• iControl can monitor itself via the AppServer Health Monitoring plug-in.

Net-SNMP Agent

Third party SNMP managers can monitor the health of an iControl Application Server and its
services using iControl’s customized version of the open source Net-SNMP package
(www.net-snmp.org), which is installed on all iControl Application Servers. The Net-SNMP
agent can be polled (using UDP port 1161) for health monitoring data based on the following
MIBs (also part of the Net-SNMP package):

icontrol_product1

RACK_D11_FRAME
