Each Network Manager installation
that connects to an ObjectServer needs a copy of the Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus interfaces
file.
About this task
Assuming that server communication information has been
configured in your Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus installations,
the $NCHOME/etc/interfaces.arch file
(where arch represents the operating system name) should
be available in the NCHOME installation location.
Procedure
-
When Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus is
installed on the same server as Network Manager, they must both be installed
into the same NCHOME location. In such cases, no further action is required to ensure that Network Manager processes can connect to an
ObjectServer failover pair.
- If Network Manager and Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus are
installed on different servers, perform the following steps on the
primary and backup Network Manager servers:
Copy the $NCHOME/etc/interfaces.arch file from
the Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus NCHOME
location to the NCHOME installation location on the server where Network Manager is
installed.
For more information about configuring server communication information and generating the
Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus
interfaces.arch file, see the Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus documentation at
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSSHTQ/landingpage/NetcoolOMNIbus.html.
Note: The name of the virtual ObjectServer pair should be specified in the
ConfigItnm.DOMAIN.cfg file.
