Restarting the initial configuration wizard

You might need to restart the initial configuration wizard of the Operations Center, for example, to make configuration changes.

Before you begin

To change the following settings, use the Settings page in the Operations Center rather than restarting the initial configuration wizard:
  • The frequency at which status data is refreshed
  • The duration that alerts remain active, inactive, or closed
  • The conditions that indicate that clients are at risk
The Operations Center help includes more information about how to change these settings.

About this task

To restart the initial configuration wizard, you must delete a properties file that includes information about the hub server connection. However, any alerting, monitoring, at-risk, or multiserver settings that were configured for the hub server are not deleted. These settings are used as the default settings in the configuration wizard when the wizard restarts.

Procedure

  1. Stop the Operations Center web server.
  2. On the computer where the Operations Center is installed, go to the following directory, where installation_dir represents the directory in which the Operations Center is installed:
    • AIX operating systems Linux operating systems installation_dir/ui/Liberty/usr/servers/guiServer
    • Windows operating systems installation_dir\ui\Liberty\usr\servers\guiServer
    For example:
    • AIX operating systems Linux operating systems /opt/tivoli/tsm/ui/Liberty/usr/servers/guiServer
    • Windows operating systems c:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\ui\Liberty\usr\servers\guiServer
  3. In the guiServer directory, delete the serverConnection.properties file.
  4. Start the Operations Center web server.
  5. Open the Operations Center.
  6. Use the configuration wizard to reconfigure the Operations Center. Specify a new password for the monitoring administrator ID.
  7. On any spoke servers that were previously connected to the hub server, update the password for the monitoring administrator ID by issuing the following command from the Tivoli® Storage Manager command-line interface:
    UPDATE ADMIN IBM-OC-hub_server_name new_password
    Restriction: Do not change any other settings for this administrator ID. After you specify the initial password, this password is managed automatically by the Operations Center.
