IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2

Add application support (SQL files) to a nonlocal hub

To add application support SQL files to a hub monitoring server on a nonlocal system, complete this procedure.

  1. Enable the GUI interface.

    Your Linux or UNIX environment might already have a GUI interface enabled. Otherwise, perform the following tasks to enable it:

    1. Enable X11.

    2. Make sure you have access to a native X-term monitor or an X-Window emulator.

    3. If using an X-Window emulator, enable X11 access to the X-Window server (command example: xhost +).

    4. If using an X-Window emulator, set the display environment variable to point to the X-Window server: 

        export DISPLAY=pc_ip_address:0

  2. Ensure that the hub monitoring server is running.

  3. To start Manage Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Services, go to the $CANDLEHOME bin directory (example: /opt/IBM/ITM/bin) and run this command:

    A GUI window opens for Manage Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Services.

  4. Select Actions → Install Product Support.

  5. On the Add Application Support to the TEMS window, select On a different computer and click OK.

  6. When you are prompted to ensure that the hub monitoring server is configured and running, click OK.

  7. On the Non-Resident TEMS Connection window, provide the hub monitoring server name (node ID), and select the communication protocol to use in sending the application support SQL files to the hub monitoring server.

  8. Select the appropriate communications protocol and click OK.

  9. On the next window, supply any values required by the selected communication protocol and click OK.

  10. On the Install Product Support window, select the monitoring agents to add application support to the hub monitoring server, and click Install.

  11. In Manage Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Services, look for this message: 

      Remote seeding complete!

  12. Stop and restart the hub monitoring server.
