dynamically setting manager name for trap
As per the SEA documentation, trap destinations are specified through master agent configuration file and need to be set before starting master agent.
We want add more managers dynamically i.e. after master and subagent are started and communicating with one manager.
Does snmpdx provide any MIB variable to "set" the manager name? Is there any other alternative such as command line parameter or API to set the manager name?
Thanks

Hi,
This feature is not supported in SEA. All the configuration should be done before starting master agent.
To register the subagent, you can use any of the following two methods.
* Static method : The master agent reads agent resource files. This resource
file contains an entry for each subagent.
* Dynamic method : The master agent receives the information from the subagents. The subagent sends a SET request containing the MIB objects needed to register with the Master Agent, through the use of the registration API.
Using SEA, there is no way you can add the managers dynamically for traps.
I suggest you may have look on new product from SUN i.e SunMC( Sun Management Center) which has lot of new features.
HTH.
Thanks,
Santosh
