Adding incidents and alerts to the DASH navigation menu

If you have integrated IBM Cloud Pak for Watson AIOps and IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus, you can add a launch-in-context link to the IBM Cloud Pak for Watson AIOps Incidents and alerts page to the DASH navigation menu for IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the JAZZSM_HOME directory and open the following file: <JAZZSM_HOME>/profile/config/cells/JazzSMNode01Cell/applications/isc.ear/deployments/isc/isclite.war/WEB-INF/navigation.xml

  2. At the end of the content wrapped between the following tags:

    <navigation:navigation-tree> {...} </navigation:navigation-tree>

    Append the following XML snippet, replacing the values marked as <CP4WAIOPS_STORIES_URL> and <CP4WAIOPS_ALERTS_URL> with valid URLs to the Cloud Pak for Watson AIOps Incidents and Alerts pages:

    <navigation:nav-element formPersistence="false" hidden="false" iconClass="cloudIcon" isWscNode="false" layoutUpdatedAtRuntime="false" moduleID="com.ibm.isclite.global.custom.module" moduleIDOrig="com.ibm.isclite.global.custom.module" nodeType="label" securityUpdatedAtRuntime="false" stateMaintained="false" taskType="hiddenTask" uniqueName="com.ibm.isclite.global.custom.module-SPSVS-label.W8DQOK4vA5VBn4RGGldV-u11650881799360" wscRole="all authenticated portal users" wscRoleType="User">
