You might need to restart the initial configuration
wizard of the Operations Center,
for example, to make configuration changes.
Before you begin
To change the following settings, use the
Settings page
in the
Operations Center rather
than restarting the initial configuration wizard:
- The frequency at which status data is refreshed
- The duration that alerts remain active, inactive, or closed
- The conditions that indicate that clients are at risk
The
Operations Center help
includes more information about how to change these settings.
About this task
To restart the initial configuration wizard, you must delete
a properties file that includes information about the hub server connection.
However, any alerting, monitoring, at-risk, or multiserver settings
that were configured for the hub server are not deleted. These settings
are used as the default settings in the configuration wizard when
the wizard restarts.
Procedure
- Stop the Operations Center web
server.
- On the computer where the Operations Center is installed,
go to the following directory, where installation_dir represents
the directory in which the Operations Center is installed:
- installation_dir/ui/Liberty/usr/servers/guiServer
- installation_dir\ui\Liberty\usr\servers\guiServer
- In the guiServer directory, delete
the serverConnection.properties file.
- Start the Operations Center web server.
- Open the Operations Center.
- Use the configuration wizard to reconfigure the Operations Center.
Specify
a new password for the monitoring administrator ID.
-
On any spoke servers that were previously connected to the hub server, update the password for
the monitoring administrator ID by issuing the following command from the
IBM Spectrum® Protect command-line interface:
UPDATE ADMIN IBM-OC-hub_server_name new_password
Restriction: Do not change any other settings for this administrator ID. After you
specify the initial password, this password is managed automatically by the Operations Center.
