Configure a subnode
Use the Subnode Configuration Overrides page to configure a subnode data source.
Use the steps in Create subnodes to create a subnode.
When you add a data source to a subnode, the Subnode Configuration Overrides page is presented if the data source requires configuration. It shows custom configuration properties and any other configuration properties that are applicable to the subnode type.
Figure 1. Subnode Configuration Overrides window
Procedure
In the following example, SNMP is the data source for the subnode that is being configured.
- In the Subnode Configuration Overrides window, choose the configuration properties that you want for the subnode at the agent level. Also, choose the configuration properties that you want to vary for each subnode.
- Use Copy >> to copy configuration properties so that they are both at the agent level and the subnode level. The agent looks for a value first at the subnode level, and if it does not find a value, it looks at the agent level. If a property at both levels is a required property, it is required only at the agent level, it is optional at the subnode level.
- Use Move >> to move properties from the agent level to the subnode level. Move>> is not available for properties that are required by an agent-level data source or by a subnode of a different type.
- Use Remove to remove one of the two lists. Properties can be removed only if they are listed at both the agent-level and the subnode level. This function cannot be used to remove a property completely.
- Use << Copy to copy a property from the subnode level to the agent-level.
- Use << Move to move a property from the subnode to the agent-level.
What to do next
You can change the configuration for an existing subnode using the Agent Editor.
