Question
Answer
Install the DiscoveryProbe on each of the participating machines, choosing separate mode (instead of the default Probe GW / Mgr union mode). When installing the Probe Manager, use the EXACT SAME Probe ID as specified during the installation of the probe GateWay
On the designated Probe Gateway machine, edit the probeMgrList.xml file (<DiscoveryProbe Install Dir> ootlibcollectorsprobeGatewayprobeMgrList.xml) to contain the probe manager per host like the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<probeMgrList>
<probeMgr ip="192.168.82.111">
<!-- If nothing is specified, the probeMgr will be given all the patterns
<includePatterns>
<discoveryPattern id="..."/>
<discoveryPattern id="..."/>
</includePatterns>
<excludePattterns>
<discoveryPattern id="..."/>
</excludePatterns>
-->
</probeMgr>
<probeMgr ip="192.168.82.112">
<!-- If nothing is specified, the probeMgr will be given all the patterns
<includePatterns>
<discoveryPattern id="..."/>
<discoveryPattern id="..."/>
</includePatterns>
<excludePattterns>
<discoveryPattern id="..."/>
</excludePatterns>
-->
</probeMgr>
</probeMgrList>
(Multiply the probeMgr element for each of the designated probe manager machine if needed)
In the Probe Manager you need to configure the following properties in the discoveryProbe.properties file:
Should the probe GW run a probe manager in same JVM
appilog.collectors.probeLocalUnion=false
The Probe Manager & Gateway IP addresses (can also be DNS names)
appilog.collectors.local.ip = <localhost address>
appilog.collectors.probe.ip = <probe gateway address>
