method to use</h1>
|

|
|
<div><p>Determine how you want to send data. You can either gather your
|
||
|
|
data with the Management Central inventory function and send the data with Electronic
|
||
|
|
Service Agent™ (Extreme Support) or you can have PM <span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> gather
|
||
|
|
the data and send it over the SNA protocol.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Since V5R1, the PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> transmission
|
||
|
|
process has taken advantage of the network configuration that you perform
|
||
|
|
with Management Central to set up a central system and endpoint systems. However,
|
||
|
|
you can still use the character-based interface to configure PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span>.
|
||
|
|
Choose which transmission method you want to use:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>Send data with the Electronic Service Agent™ over Extreme
|
||
|
|
Support<p>If you choose this transmission method, you need to configure PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> to have data gathered by the
|
||
|
|
Management Central inventory function. Perform this configuration for PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> if your servers have V4R5 or
|
||
|
|
later of the operating system installed (you must also have the Universal
|
||
|
|
Connection fixes applied). You would choose this method if you use Extreme
|
||
|
|
Support.</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Send data with SNA protocol <p>If you choose this transmission method,
|
||
|
|
you need to configure PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> by
|
||
|
|
using the character-based interface. PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> gathers
|
||
|
|
your data and transmits it by using SNA. Perform this configuration for PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> if your servers have <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> V4R5 or earlier installed.</p>
|
||
|
|
</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>Once you have implemented which transmission method you want to use, you
|
||
|
|
are ready to do the other tasks to Manage PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span>.</p>
