2. From the execution result of the AddHost command, make sure that specified information is
correctly output to the name and hosttype parameters.
Notes on executing the AddHost command:
○
If the host name specified during mainframe host environment setup and the host name
specified during Device Manager environment setup do not match, information registered in
the mainframe agent cannot be acquired.
○
Do not specify the wwnlist parameter when registering the mainframe host in the Device
Manager. If you do, an error occurs.
○
Record the objectID value output when the AddHost command is executed. You will
need this value for the subsequent procedures and operations.
○
Although the IP address specified in the ipaddress parameter of a command is registered
as an attribute of the mainframe host, the IP address registered using the AddHost
command is not used for communication with the mainframe agent. The information
necessary for communication with the mainframe agent is specified in section
4-12-2-2 .
Action to be taken if an error occurs during the execution of the AddHost command:
Use the GetHost command to check whether the mainframe host is registered. If the
mainframe host is not registered, register it using the AddHost command. If the mainframe
host has been registered incorrectly, use the ModifyHost command to correct the registered
information. For details on how to correct the registered mainframe host information, see
section
4-12-8 .
