Installing and Configuring the HS-Series Agent 4–9
The Enterprise OID can be customized. Note that this value
must be consistent with the Agent's MIB!
The default vendor-specific setting is "36.2.15.21."

This section of the install enables you to specify client systems to monitor the RAID array.
■ The first part asks for the hostname of the client system. The hostname can be any
valid Windows NT or Windows 2000 system that has a valid DNS hostname on your
network.
■ The second part asks the level of configuration you want the client on this host system
to be able to use.
0 - The client can only view the main storage window; it cannot open a system window
for any of the RAID arrays on the host that you are currently on
1 - The client can view the main storage window and any of the system windows. This
client cannot do any configuration however.
2 - This client can view any storage window and configure any RAID array on the
current host system
■ The third part asks through which network protocol you want to notify a client
machine of an asynchronous error condition.
0 - There is no asynchronous error notification to the client
1 - The client machine will receive notification via TCP/IP only. Only the SWCC
client will receive error messages.
2 - The client machine is notified by SMNP only. This means that errors sent out by
the agent can only be received by an SMNP client. The SWCC Client will not report
any errors.
3 - The client machine will be notified by TCP/IP and SMNP. Both the SWCC client
and an SMNP monitoring client can receive errors messages from the agent.
