DefaultRouter
|
This is the IP address of the default router on the subnet. If specified, the agent removes the default route when the resource goes offline. The agent adds the route back when the group returns online. You must specify this attribute if multiple IP subnets exist on one host; otherwise, the packets cannot be routed properly when the subnet corresponding to the first default route goes down.
Type and dimension: string-scalar
Default: 0.0.0.0
Example: "192.1.0.1"
|
IgnoreLinkStatus
|
If set to 1, the agent ignores the driver-reported interface status while testing the interfaces. If set to 0, the agent reports the interface status as down if the driver-reported interface status indicates the down state. Using interface status for link testing may considerably speed up failovers.
Type and dimension: integer-scalar
Default: 1
|
LinkTestRatio
|
This is the ratio of total monitor cycles to monitor cycles in which the agent tests the interfaces by sending packets. At all other times, the agent tests the link by checking the "link-status" as reported by the device driver. Checking the "link-status" is a faster way to check the interfaces, but only detects cable disconnection failures.
If set to 1, packets are sent during every monitor cycle.
If set to 0, packets are never sent during a monitor cycle.
Type and dimension: integer-scalar
Default: 1
Example: 3
In this example, if the monitor agent function invokes in a numbered pattern such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ..., the actual packet send test is done at 3, 6, ... monitor agent functions. For LinkTestRatio=4, the packet send test is done at 4, 8, ... monitor agent functions.

NetworkHosts
|
List of host IP addresses on the IP subnet that are pinged to determine if the interfaces are working. NetworkHosts only accepts IP addresses to avoid DNS lookup delays. The IP addresses must be directly present on the IP subnet of interfaces (the hosts must respond to ARP requests).
If IP addresses are not provided, the hosts are automatically determined by sending a broadcast ping (unless the NoBroadcast attribute is set to 1). The first host to reply serves as the ping destination.
Type and dimension: string-vector
Example: "192.1.0.1"
|
NoBroadcast
|
If set to 1, NoBroadcast prevents MultiNICB from sending broadcast ICMP packets. (Note: MultiNICB can still send ARP requests.)
If NetworkHosts are not specified and NoBroadcast is set to 1, the MultiNICB agent cannot function properly.
Note
Symantec does not recommend setting the value of NoBroadcast to 1.
Type and dimension: integer-scalar
Default: 0
|
OfflineTestRepeatCount
|
Number of times the test is repeated if the interface status changes from up to down. For every repetition of the test, the next NetworkHost is selected in round-robin manner. At the end of this process, broadcast is performed if NoBroadcast is set to 0. A greater value prevents spurious changes, but also increases the response time.
Type and dimension: integer-scalar
Default: 3
