Adding and Removing Channel Containers

Channel containers provide a reference point through which the logging server can locate Channel objects. At startup, the logging server scans its list of Channel containers and loads the included Channel object configurations and their drivers. The drivers and Channel object configurations are then available to provide event notification and log events.

Note that the logging server only loads Channel objects found in supported Channel containers. Therefore, all Channel containers must be included in this list in order for the logging server to locate their associated Channel objects. (The Channel container in Logging Services is added to this list by default.)

IMPORTANT: You cannot create a Channel container in this dialog; you can only add existing containers to the logging server's list of supported containers. For information on creating containers, see the iManager online help.

To add a Channel Container to the logging server's list of supported Channel containers,

  1. Click Add Container.

  2.  In the Object Selector screen, click the Channel Container that you want to add to the logging server’s list of supported containers.

    To move up or down in the tree, click the navigation arrows. You may also search the tree by entering the object name and context in the Search frame.

NOTE: iManager only links valid entries.

To remove a Channel container from the logging server's list of supported Channel containers,

  1. Mark the checkbox next to the Channel Container.

  2. Click Remove Container.

NOTE: Removing a Channel container from this list does not delete the Channel container from the tree. For information on deleting objects from the tree, see the iManager online help.

For information on creating Channel objects, see Creating and Configuring Channel Objects.
