Setting environment variables

Environment variables are specific preset values that establish the working environment of the probe.

The minimum requirement to run this probe is Java 6. The selection of the JRE used for the probe's runtime environment adheres to the following order of precedence:
  1. The JRE specified by the $NCO_PROBE_JRE environment variable.
  2. The JRE specified by the $JAVA_HOME environment variable.
  3. The most recent JRE version available to Netcool/OMNIbus.
Note:
If the version of Netcool/OMNIbus that you are using did not come with Java 6, you must perform one of the following actions before running the probe:
  • Edit the $OMNIHOME/probes/java/nco_p_spectrum_corba_v9.env file to add the Java 6 directory to the $NCO_PROBE_JRE environment variable.
  • Add the Java 6 directory to the $JAVA_HOME environment variable of the probe's host machine.
