Use the tacmd createSitAssociation command
to create one or more situation associations for a Tivoli Enterprise
Portal navigator item.
Optionally, you can also create one or more managed system or managed
system list assignments for the navigator item. If you want to use
the current tacmd tepsLogin values for username, password, and server
hostname, do not enter any of these options for the tacmd
createSitAssociation command. If you specify values for some,
but not all of these options, you might be prompted to specify these
values.
You must log in by using the tepsLogin command
before running the createSitAssociation command.
tacmd createSitAssociation
[{-i|--situation|--situations} SITUATION...]
{-a|--navItem} NAVIGATOR_ITEM
[ {-n|--navigator} NAVIGATOR_NAME ]
[ {-t|--state} SITUATION_SEVERITY ]
[ {-m|--system|--systems} MSN_OR_MSL... ]
[ {-s|--server} TEPS_HOSTNAME[:PORT] ]
[ {-u|--username} TEPS_USER ]
[ {-p|--password} TEPS_PASSWORD ]
[ {-f|--force} ]
where:
- -i|--situation|--situations
- The name of the situation or situations to associate to the
navigator item.
- -a|--navItem
- The fully qualified name of the navigator item to associate
the situation or situations to, and optionally to assign the managed
systems or managed system lists to. List the navigator item starting
with the root node of the navigator view to the navigator item, separating
each navigator node with a forward slash character (/).
For example, "Enterprise/Windows Systems/MYHOST". As in
the example, on Windows systems, you must put double quotation marks
around the name of the navigator item if it contains a space. If the
navigator item contains the forward slash character (for example, Trunk/TreeBranch1/TreeBranch2/TreeBranch3), a sequence of two consecutive forward slash characters will
serve as an escape sequence, as in, Trunk/TreeBranch1/TreeBranch2/Tree//Branch//3.
- -n|--navigator
- The name of the navigator view that the navigator item belongs
to. By default, the Physical navigator view is used.
- -t|--state
- The state is indicated when the conditions have been met and
the situation becomes true. An event indicator for the state overlays
the Navigator item icon. By default, the Critical state is used.
- -m|--system|--systems
- The name of one or more managed systems or managed system lists
to assign to the navigator item.
- -s|--server
- Specifies which Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server to use.
- -u|--username
- The identifier of the user to authenticate on the Tivoli Enterprise
Portal Server. The user must have the 'Modify' permission for the
'Situation' object enabled on the server to execute the createSitAssociation command. If the -m|--system option is provided,
the user must also have the 'Modify' permission enabled for the Custom
Navigator Views object.
- -p|--password
- The password of the user to authenticate on the Tivoli Enterprise
Portal Server. The software prompts you for the password if you do
not specify one.
- -f|--force
- Performs the action without prompting for confirmation.
The following example associates the UNIX_System_Busy_Critical
situation to the Enterprise/child_logical navigator item that belongs
to the Logical navigator:
tacmd createsitassociation -a Enterprise/child_logical -n Logical
-i UNIX_System_Busy_Critical
