Start the OMNIbus Web GUI Configuration Tool

Start the OMNIbus Web GUI Configuration Tool to configure the Web GUI.

Before you begin

If you encounter an issue while running the OMNIbus Web GUI Configuration Tool you can reference the ncwConfigUI_<timestamp>.log file for further information. The log file is located in the omnibus_webgui home directory under /configtools/logs. For example: /opt/IBM/netcool/omnibus_webgui/configtool/logs.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the configuration tool directory for your platform: WEBGUI_HOME/configtool/<$PLATFORM>
  2. Run the ncwConfigUI command.

Example

For UNIX operating systemFor Linux operating systemProceed as follows:
  1. Navigate to WEBGUI/HOME/configtool/linux.gtk.x86_64
  2. Run the following command:
    ./ncwConfigUI -WASUserID <WAS_ADMIN_ID> -WASPassword <WAS_ADMIN_PASSWORD>
For Windows operating systemProceed as follows:
  1. Navigate to C:\IBM\netcool\omnibus_webgui\configtool\win32.win32.x86_64
  2. Run the following command:
    ncwConfigUI.exe -WASUserID <WAS_ADMIN_ID> -WASPassword <WAS_ADMIN_PASSWORD>

What to do next

  • If you specified the option to create default users and groups, use the credentials of those users to log in. The initial password for default user accounts, for example ncoadmin and ncouser, is the same as the WebSphere Server admin password.
  • If you did not specify the option to create users and groups, log in as the default Jazz for Service Management user. The credentials of this user were specified during the installation.
Note: If an incorrect user name or password are entered into the OMNIbus Web GUI Configuration Tool an error message will be displayed when you create default users, or when the WebSphere Application Server is restarted. To correct this you can rerun the OMNIbus Web GUI Configuration Tool and enter the correct credentials.
