IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2


Install and configure event integration components

Allow one day to install the event synchronization component and configure event forwarding to either Tivoli Enterprise Console or Netcool/OMNIbus. This estimate includes time to confirm that events are being forwarded to Tivoli Enterprise Console or Netcool/OMNIbus and synchronized back to Tivoli Monitoring.

Because this step requires the installation of new baroc files for events with Tivoli Monitoring V6.3 (Table 1 lists the update history for these files), you must plan for at least one recycle of the Tivoli Enterprise Console server. Since the installation of new baroc files for Tivoli Monitoring requires that the Tivoli Enterprise Console Server be recycled, users must plan for an outage in their Tivoli Enterprise Console Server. This means use your normal change control processes to schedule a change window. The estimated one-day duration to implement the Tivoli Enterprise Console changes does not include creating any custom rules or baroc files. The one day includes implementing the default baroc files included with Tivoli Monitoring.

When using the Tivoli Enterprise Console, you need a baroc file for each type of agent. For the packaged agents, a baroc file is automatically installed on your monitoring server. The baroc files are placed in the CANDLE_HOME\cms\TECLIB directory.
