Copying SNMP Managers

Overview

You can make copies of all Universal Controller records, including SNMP Managers, using the standard method for Copying a Record: selecting Insert on the Action menu.

However, you also can use the Copy action on the SNMP Manager Action menu or the Copy button in the SNMP Manager Details.

Copying One or More SNMP Managers from an SNMP Managers List

Step 1

From the Agents & Connections navigation pane, select System > SNMP Managers to display the SNMP Managers list.

Step 2

Locate the SNMP Managers(s) you want to copy (see Filtering).

Step 3

Copy the SNMP Manager(s):
 
Copy One SNMP Manager

  1. Right-click the SNMP Manager Name.
  2. On the Action menu, select Copy. A Copy SNMP Manager pop-up dialog displays.


3. Enter a new name for the SNMP Manager and, optionally, select any Business Services that you want the SNMP Manager assigned to.
4. Click Submit to create a copy of the SNMP Manager.

 
Copy Multiple SNMP Managers

  1. Ctrl-Click the SNMP Managers you want to copy.
  2. Right-click any of the selected SNMP Managers.
  3. On the Action menu, select Copy.
  4. On the Confirmation pop-up that displays, click OK. The copied SNMP Managers are added to the list, with - Copy added as a suffix to the SNMP Manager Name for each SNMP Manager. If an SNMP Manager with that - Copy name already exists, another copy is not created.
