Validate AIM Plugins

You can run diagsysedge.exe with the -Q option to determine whether the AIMs are running.

To determine whether the AIMs are running

  1. Open a command prompt and change to the bin directory of SystemEDGE.
  2. Enter the following:

    UNIX/Linux:

    ./diagsysedge -Q
    

    Note: Instead of diagsysedge you can also use the symbolic link diagsysedge.exe on UNIX to run the utility.

    Windows:

    diagsysedge.exe -Q
    

    The command provides output similar to the following:

    C:\Program Files\CA\SystemEDGE\bin>diagsysedge -Q
    --- diagsysedge plugin query result ---

    If the agent is not running, you receive an error message that the SNMP operation failed. Check the port number, and if the agent is started on a port other than 161, specify -p port on the command line and try again, or you can try to start the agent again, using the instructions in the chapter “Starting the Agent."
