Installation and Setup
Confirming Inheritance Configuration is Successful
108
f) Upload the spreadsheet to the head-end Application Server (see page 110).
13. Restart the head-end Application Server.
Confirming Inheritance Configuration is Successful
To confirm you have successfully configured inheritance
1. In iControl Edge, click the APPS tab in the Application Browser area.
The Application Selector appears.
2. Click Alarm Browser.
The GSM Alarm Browser appears.
3. In the Alarm Browser’s left pane, click any one of the hub Application Servers EXCEPT the
head-end.
4. On the right pane, verify that there are no cyclers, virtual alarms, or GC-100 service. If there
are, you did not successfully configure spreadsheet inheritance.
5. On the right pane, expand the iControl sub-folder.
If you configured the Densité Manager to be on the head-end, the only alarms you should
see listed in this folder are physical alarms for the Densité probes belonging to this hub. If
you see any virtual alarms, you have not successfully configured spreadsheet inheritance.
Only the master should have virtual alarms, cyclers, and GC-100 alarms in the iControl sub-
folder.
Task 12: Uploading and Applying iControl Edge Configuration
Files
Once you have finished modifying the configuration spreadsheets, and creating the required
configuration files for the Global Caché GC-100 Network Adapter, you must transfer them to
the Application Server and restart the GSM services (see "Restarting the General Status
Manager (GSM) Services", on page 111) for the changes to take effect.
Uploading the GC-100 Network Adapter Configuration Files
You can use any suitable file transfer application—WinSCP, for instance, or the upload function
of the Application Server’s File Manager utility—to transfer new or updated configuration files
from your client PC or laptop to the Application Server.
To upload the configuration files to the Application Server
1. Launch WinSCP, log on to the Application Server and navigate to
/usr/local/iControl/bin/conf/GC100.
REQUIREMENT
Before beginning this procedure, make sure you have opened iControl Edge
(see "Launching the iControl Edge Web Site", on page 112).
