Netcool/OMNIbus installation prompts
TBSM monitors the Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer for service affecting events. The Netcool Common Licensing server is required for IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus version 7 release 1 or lower.
Before you begin, install the Netcool Common Licensing software that is included with TBSM on the same host where you plan to install Netcool/OMNIbus. Use the default settings for the Netcool Common Licensing server installation.
Install prompts
Note: For localhost to work correctly in TBSM 4.1.1 on UNIX® hosts, the /etc/hosts file needs to be configured so that when you ping localhost, you get the computer's IP address, not 127.0.0.1.
The Configured Value column is provided so that you can add your configured values. To create a PDF of this page, click here
