How do I change the NFM-P Task Manager settings?

Note: The Task Manager is operational with the default values.

Steps
 

Log in to the primary or standalone main server station as the nsp user.


Open a console window.


Navigate to the /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/config directory.

CAUTION

Service Disruption

Contact technical support before you attempt to modify the nms-server.xml file.

Modifying the nms-server.xml file can have serious consequences that can include service disruption.

Open the nms-server.xml file using a plain-text editor such as vi.


Find and configure the required parameters:

  • maxNumRetainedTasks

  • numTasksToPurgeWhenFull

  • successfulTasksPurgeInterval

  • failedTasksPurgeInterval


Save and close the nms-server.xml file.


Navigate to the /opt/nsp/nfmp/server/nms/bin directory.


Enter the following to restart the main server:

bash$ ./nmsserver.bash force_restart ↵

The main server restarts, and the configuration change takes effect.


Modify the client configuration, if required.

  1. Log in to an NFM-P single-user client or client delegate server station.

    Note: If you log in to a RHEL client delegate server station, you must log in as the nsp user.

    Note: If you log in to a single-user client station, you must log in as the user who installed the client, or as a local administrator.

  2. Open a console window.

  3. Navigate to the client configuration directory, typically /opt/nsp/client/nms/config on RHEL, and C:\nsp\client\nms\config on Windows.

  4. Open the nms-client.xml file using a text editor.

  5. Configure the autoRefreshInterval parameter.

  6. Save and close the nms-client.xml file.

  7. Repeat Step 7 and Step 8 to restart the main server.
