Step 6: Testing the system

Use this step to test the ObjectServer and event list by running a Simnet probe. The Simnet probe sends simulated events to the ObjectServer.

Proceed as follows:

  1. On the nchost01 computer, start the Simnet probe by running the following command:

    $NCHOME/omnibus/probes/nco_p_simnet -server AGG_P

  2. Start the event list on the Windows computer ncdesktop:

    %NCHOME%\omnibus\desktop\NCOEvent.exe

    Log on to AGG_P as the root user with the corresponding password. You will see simulated events in the event list.

    Note: The default root user password is an empty string. This is not the system root user and password.

You have now shown that the ObjectServer can process events and send them to the event list.
