Tasks
I have a lot of stuff on my plate right now, although much of it is not directly related to a customer issue. I'm still getting my parts environment set up, self-training and trying to make progress on my hardware.
- iSystem: I have a real need now to get freeze-mode debugging. I am trying to get the emanate_lite example running in 4.5.2 to see how our SNMP works, and it boots fine as long as I don't change anything. But the host (agent) doesn't communicate with the target (manager). (The command to test this out is "getmany" in the SNMP delivery.) So I have to change the IP settings in userconf.mk to get it to match what I currently have: host=10.11.1.11 and target=10.11.1.20 . Of course after I change that one little thing, the emanate_lite example doesn't even boot. So I need to get to the bottom of this.
- Gateway: need to get a Gateway example going as well.
- VPN is fixed and the VPN licenses are working for compiles but not for debug. The VPN is interefering somehow with the communication between host and target. They cannot ping each other, unless the VPN is taken down first. (inetutil example in 4.5.2)
- RVCT compiler: have 2.2 installed, will downoad 2.1 from extranet also.
- GHS temp license: received a new one so I'm set with a local GHS license for a little while.
Now (finally ) customer-related stuff.
-------------------------------------
- SNMP questions about the MIB object snmpEnableAuthenTraps and customer wants to be able to change that setting on the fly. After some dialog with the vendor it seems that the customer has to change this on their own - there is no API for it. The struct that the object is in is a global so they can change it anytime, anywhere it is externed. Vendor also said a "set" request can be sent to change it, but it's not real clear from the 600 page document and examples how to do that using the existing MIB object.
- NTP TSG written by HQ support is almost ready for publishing, need to review final draft and send any comments back.
- [elxr] link warning ose_confd.o from ghs4.07 : HQ Support wants customer to use ghs3.x instead. Case will stay as is but shift to minor priority.
- OSEck sfk-linux with simulator app: Not sure what status of this is, someone from outside has become involved. Are they going to bring in a consultant to deal with this?
