5 minutes before the next round of ping checks are executed and the status of the Ping agent in the submap updated.

Figure 3-18. The Netserver UniSpace has three Agents: WBEM Agent, Ping Agent, and NSAAgent.
The HPNetserver is a unispace now and is populated with agent icons for each SNMP agent loaded on the HP
Netserver. This can be seen in the Unicenter WorldView 2d map, 3d map, or NodeView. If an alert is received
from an agent, the agent color is changed and propagates up the hierarchy. The agent color is changed on the 2d
map, 3d map, and in the Node View. For more details on Unicenter’s DSM refer to Unicenter product
documentation.
