Using Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator to manage process control

Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator provides a visual interface from which you can manage process control. You can use Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator to view and manage process agents, processes, and services on your Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus hosts.

For example, you can view the status of services that are under process control on a host computer, and then start or stop the processes in those services.

You must connect to a process agent in order to manage its services and processes. Configuration changes that you make to services and processes can be saved to the process control configuration file, which is overwritten each time that you save.

Note: You cannot use Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator to specify that only certain hosts can connect to process agents. To define such secure hosts, you must add a security definition to the process agent configuration file manually.
