ITM Command Reference

IBM Tivoli Monitoring supports a number of command-line interface (CLI) commands.

These commands can be used to set up the environment, to deploy and configure framework components and monitoring agents, and to run and manage the environment. Many of these commands duplicate functions that you can perform by using a graphical interface such as Manage Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Services or the Tivoli Enterprise Portal. In general, the CLI commands are used for automation of these functions.

• Use the tacmd CLI commands to manage most aspects of your monitoring environment.
• Use the itmcmd commands only on UNIX monitoring servers.
• Use the tivcmd commands to create and work with authorization policies that control access to resources displayed in monitoring dashboards in the IBM Dashboard Application Services Hub.
• Use the Tivoli Enterprise Console® commands on the Tivoli® Enterprise Console event server to configure the event synchronization between IBM® Tivoli Monitoring and Tivoli Enterprise Console.
• Use the sitconf and sitconfuser commands on the Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServer to configure the event synchronization between IBM Tivoli Monitoring and Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus.
