Using STM
Server Settings
The Server settings control the overall behavior of the collector, the SNMP and
DNS Poller, how the server sends email, and the global configuration of File Age
Categories.
• Delete Log files Older Than sets the duration server log files are
retained on the server.
• Delete Output files Older Than sets the duration temporary files are
retained on the server.
• SNMP Trap Port sets the port you want to receive traps on. Note: If you
change this setting, you should restart the event receiver.
• Data Retention policy Start Time sets the time you want Data
Retention policies to be executed. Data Retention Policies can tax a
system for a short period because every table is analyzed. It is
recommended that you run this analysis when the machine is not busy.
• Hosts Down Monitor Enable default is YES. If set to NO, then the
functionality of 'Host Not Responding to Ping' trap is disabled. Any
change to this parameter either (YES / NO) should be followed by the
restart of the STM Event Receiver service.
• Web Server Log Level sets the level of STM Reporter Web Server log
messages.
• Maintenance Log Level sets the level of STM Reporter Maintenance
log messages.
• Poller Log Level sets the level of STM Reporter Poller log messages.
• Event Receiver Log Level sets the level of STM Reporter Event
Receiver log messages.
• Collector Performance Monitor turns Collector Performance Monitoring
on or off.
• SNMP Table Poll Timeout sets maximum time allowed for polling an
SNMP table.
• Automatic Clearing of Traps Frequency sets frequency to clear traps
older than trap age threshold.
• Automatic Clearing of Traps Age sets the trap age threshold for
automatic trap clearing.
• DNS Polling Frequency sets the frequency at which the DNS Poller will
poll the DNS agents you have defined.
• Chart Image Format sets the chart image format to either PNG or JPG
default format is PNG.
