5. Type the IP address or hostname of the CC-NOC in the CC-NOC IP/Hostname field. This is
a required field. For hostname rules, please refer to Terminology/Acronyms in Chapter 1:
Introduction.
6. To retrieve daily information on targets in the CC-NOC database, type a discovery range in
the IP Range From and IP Range To fields. This IP range represents the range of addresses
CC-SG is interested in and instructs CC-NOC to send events for these devices to CC-SG.
This range is related to the discovery range that is configured in the CC-NOC. Please refer to
Raritan’s CommandCenter NOC Administrator Guide for details. Type a range, keeping
the following rules in mind:
IP A DDRESS R ANGE D ESCRIPTION
If CC-SG range entered here is a subset of
the range configured in CC-NOC… …then, CC-NOC returns all known target
device information within this range.
If CC-SG range entered here includes a
partial list (non-null intersection) of the
range configured in CC-NOC… …then, CC-NOC returns all known target
device information within the intersecting
range.
If CC-SG range is a superset of the range
configured in CC-NOC… …then, CC-NOC returns all known target
device information within this range.
Essentially, CC-NOC returns targets that are
defined in the CC-NOC range.
If CC-SG range does not overlap the
range configured in CC-NOC… …then, CC-NOC will not return any target
device information at all.
To stop CC-NOC from monitoring a device, it can be unmanaged. Please refer to the
CommandCenter NOC Administrator Guide for additional information.
Note: Use the CC-NOC Synchronization Report to view targets that the CC-SG is subscribing to.
The report also displays any new targets that have been discovered by CC-NOC. Please refer to
Chapter 10: Generating Reports, CC-NOC Synchronization Report for additional information.
7. Specify a Synchronization Time to schedule when the target information is retrieved from
the CC-NOC database. This will refresh the databases as targets are discovered or become
unmanaged. The default is the current time as set on the client machine. You may want to
schedule synchronization during an off-peak time so synchronization will not affect the
performance of other processes.
8. For Heartbeat Interval, enter how often, in seconds, CC-SG sends a heartbeat message to
CC-NOC. This confirms if CC-NOC if still up and available. Default is 60 seconds. Valid
range is 30-120 seconds. Normally, this does not have to be changed.
9. For Failed Heartbeat Attempts, enter the number of consecutive heartbeats that must pass
without a response before a CC-NOC node is considered unavailable. Default is 2 heartbeats.
Valid range is 2-4 heartbeats. Normally, this does not have to be changed.
