IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Define hubs on Linux and UNIX using the CLI
Define the SOAP server hubs on a Linux/UNIX system using the CLI procedure.
To configure the SOAP server:
Procedure
- On the host of the hub monitoring server on which you want to configure Web Services, change to the install_dir/bin directory and enter the following command:
./itmcmd config -S -t tems_name
- Accept the default values, which should reflect the choices made during the last configuration, until you see the following prompt:
************************* Editor for SOAP hubs list ************************* Hubs ## CMS_Name 1 ip.pipe:TEMS_NAME[port_#] 1)Add, 2)Remove ##, 3)Modify Hub ##, 4)UserAccess ##, 4)Cancel, 5)Save/exit:
- To add a hub with which the local hub can communicate:
- Type 1 and press Enter.
- Respond to the following prompts as shown in :
Network Protocol [ip, sna, ip.pipe, or ip.spipe] (Default is: ip): CMS Name (Default is: local_host): Port Number (Default is: 1918): Alias (Default is: SOAP):
SOAP hub configuration values
Configuration Value Network Protocol The communications protocol configured for the hub monitoring server CMS Name The host name of the hub monitoring server. The host name must be fully Port Number Protocol port for the hub monitoring server. Alias An alias for the hub. Alias names can be a minimum of 3 characters and a maximum of 8 characters. The alias for the local hub must always be SOAP, but you must create a new alias for additional hubs (for example, HUB2).
After you enter the alias, the list of hubs is displayed with the new hub added. For example,
Hubs ## CMS_Name 1 ip.pipe:chihuahua[1918] 2 ip:maple[1918] 1)Add, 2)Remove ##, 3)Modify Hub ##, 4)UserAccess ##, 5)Cancel, 6)Save/exit:You can continue to add hubs, or you can proceed to define user access for the hubs you have already defined.
